Commented on Parenting Centrality in Emerging Adulthood
It's intriguing to observe how the emphasis on parenting increases while other life aspects diminish for eventual parents and vice versa for non-parents. The findings prompt reflection on the timing of parenthood's impact on life trajectories, urging further exploration in future research. They provide compelling insight into the complexities of life transitions and priorities during emerging adulthood.

Commented on AI & your research work
I recommend attending the IEEE World Forum on the Internet of Things (IEEE WF-IoT 2024). Don't miss this opportunity to present your work to fellow IoT experts and industry leaders. The forum covers the Internet of Things (IoT), including its theoretical and technological foundations, applications that propel the technology's development and expansion, operational considerations, experimentation, and deployment experiences, and the effects of IoT on the public sector, commercial and industrial sectors, consumers, and the research community. This year is the 10th anniversary of WF-IoT 2024, marking a significant milestone for this distinguished IEEE IoT conference. This year's theme is “Unleashing the Power of IoT with AI,” which underscores the pivotal role of Artificial Intelligence in augmenting the potential of the Internet of Things. https://wfiot2024.iot.ieee.org/authors

If you are an early-career researcher and want to enhance your academic pursuits, then the Western Balkans Mobility Scheme offers a unique opportunity for you. In my view, the key benefit of this program is fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange; the program welcomes applicants from diverse fields, including Social Sciences and Humanities. Supported by the European Commission, each winning project will receive up to EUR 5,000 for a duration ranging from two weeks to six months. This financial aid aims to facilitate short-term mobility within the Western Balkans, allowing researchers to access specialized equipment or facilities and conduct their research effectively. The one-stage online application process simplifies it, making it accessible to aspiring scholars. This initiative contributes to the region's academic development and integration into the broader European research landscape by encouraging cross-border cooperation and research advancement. https://www.westernbalkans-infohub.eu/news/pre-announcement-of-the-policy-answers-western-balkans-mobility-scheme-for-early-career-researchers/
