Brain disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy have been linked to an imbalance in excitatory and inhibitory (E/I) inputs in the brain. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying E/I balance and plasticity in the brain are largely unresolved. Inhibitory synapses have a strong impact on brain …

RankmyAI analyzes the performance of over 25,000 Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools worldwide, providing insights into which solutions are widely adopted, attracting investment, and receiving user recognition.

The use of recycled polymers within the field of extrusion is difficult due to their often inconsistent viscosity related to variations in composition and molecular weight. Such variations lead to fluctuations in die pressure, requiring continuous adjustments in the extrusion process. This study explores …

Flow balancing is the process of changing the geometry of an extrusion die to achieve a uniform flow distribution at the die-exit. This can be an iterative and costly process. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is often used to aid in flow balancing of extrusion dies by predicting the flow profile without …

The landscape of medical research is complex and constantly evolving. This complexity becomes especially evident when actors need to balance the ethical and scientific values that protect research participants with considerations of scientific integrity. These two key values, established in international …

Some individuals, even when heavily exposed to an infectious tuberculosis patient, do not develop a specific T-cell response as measured by interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA). This could be explained by an IFN-γ-independent adaptive immune response, or an effective innate host response clearing Mycobacterium …

Complex eHealth interventions—featuring multiple components within dynamic systems—are used for healthcare improvement. Public–private partnerships (PPPs), combining resources, expertise, and technology, are crucial in this context. Yet, integrating these interventions into practice remains challenging. …

This volume offers practical insights into designing education that prepares students to navigate transitions in their professional futures by learning the basics of Systemic Co-Design. It also exemplifies how Systemic Co-Design can be an innovative approach to designing future-proof education with diverse …

Providing an overview of the knowledge and methods required by professionals working in a mandated setting with adults who have committed offences, Forensic Social Work presents evidence-based knowledge in an accessible way that can be directly translated to application in daily practice. Covering a …

It has become increasingly clear that news avoidance is a multidimensional phenomenon consisting of both intentional news avoidance and low news use, yet knowledge about the longitudinal dynamics between these dimensions is still lacking. Furthermore, there is a lack of studies investigating the relationship …
