Circular, biobased, and modular construction practices are gaining traction as cities seek to reduce the environmental impact of the built environment. However, little is known about how these strategies affect construction logistics and their associated emissions. We develop an agent-based model to …

Cardamonin is a natural chalcone that has been extensively investigated for its anticancer activity. However, its clinical relevance is still not explicit, limiting its progression into clinical trials and highlighting a persistent gap between preclinical evidence and practical application. This review …

The widespread adoption of generative agents (GAs) is reshaping the healthcare landscape. Nonetheless, broad utilization is impeded by restricted access to high-quality, interoperable clinical documentation from electronic health records (EHRs) due to persistent legal, ethical, and technical barriers. …
