This paper explores how pro-active government policies could promote artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare for the public good. Building on insights from the literature on industrial policy, we argue that without clear conditions and guardrails to ensure future public benefit, state assistance and subsidies will be nothing more than corporate welfare with unpredictable, if any, societal benef
In pursuit of advancing the capabilities of ground testing facilities, a complete road map for broadening operational range of the H3 hypersonic blowdown wind tunnel, operated at the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI), with the addition of a new Mach 5 contoured nozzle is constructed. The main characteristics of the facility are presented. The supersonic ejector is identified as a criti
This CMES Regional Outlook by Pinar Dinc focuses on the recent political developments in Turkey.
Due to the large amount of accidents negatively affecting the wellbeing of the survivors and their families, a substantial amount of research is conducted to determine the causes of road accidents. This type of data come in the form of non-negative integers and may be modelled using the Poisson regression model. Unfortunately, the commonly used maximum likelihood estimator is unstable when the exp
In recent years, a growing interest in sustainable tourism and outdoor recreation has emerged in Sweden and globally. While a positive development for many reasons, it coincides with other shifting patterns in recreational nature use, influenced by climate change, social media, and experimental interventions in natural areas. These developments bring opportunities to broaden participation, but als
Atrial fibrillation and heart failure have both been suggested to increase stroke and dementia risk. However, in observational studies, reversed causation and unmeasured confounding may occur. To mitigate these issues, this study aims to investigate if higher genetic risk for atrial fibrillation and heart failure increases dementia and stroke risk. Data were obtained from the population-based Goth
Debate over the future of international science takes place in light of two trends that are frequently interpreted as standing in tension with each other. The longer-term pattern shows that science is increasingly an international endeavour, as collaboration across borders has grown. A more recent apparent re-nationalisation of science, however, raises questions over the march of international sci

The purpose of this work is to identify and analyze the key important barriers to uptake the compressed biogas (CBG) plants in India for enhancing their role as a sustainable energy source. Initially, the barriers are identified from the past academic literature using literature review process and are then validated through the fuzzy Delphi method with expert opinions. The finalized barriers were
The legal opacity of AI technologies has long posed challenges in addressing algorithmic harms, as secrecy enables companies to retain competitive advantages while limiting public scrutiny. In response, ideas such as qualified transparency have been proposed to provide AI accountability within the confidentiality constraints. With the introduction of the EU AI Act, the foundations for human-centri
A crystallogenesis study of human transthyretin using the counter-diffusion method is described as an alternative to conventional convective vapour diffusion and batch approaches for protein crystallization. The X-ray diffraction results show systematic trends that exhibit unique patterns of crystallization and high crystal quality as well as a remarkable degree of coherence within extended crysta
INTRODUCTION: Behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are a common driver of suffering and high care needs. We describe the Swedish BPSD registry, founded in 2010 to develop an evidence base for quality improvement in the care of patients with BPSD. Further, we illustrate the potential of the registry by evaluating how individual BPSD affects mortality. METHODS: The registry provi
Combined density functional theory (DFT) and X-ray standing wave (XSW) studies have previously provided evidence for the preferential adoption of an inverted conformation of 2H-TPP on Cu(111) in contrast to the saddle conformation usually favored by porphyrin molecules adsorbed on metals. We experimentally demonstrate, via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, that the binding energies
Background/Objectives: Antibiotic resistance presents an urgent public health threat. By developing a streamlined and effective method for studying bacteriophage induction, this research marks a step further in understanding how antibiotic-resistant genes might spread across different environments. This knowledge is essential for creating strategies to reduce the spread of antimicrobial resistan
Density functional theory (DFT) thermochemistry of 3d transition-metal complexes is well-known to be sensitive to the amount of exact Hartree-Fock exchange incorporated into the exchange-correlation functional. For example, relative energies of different protonation states of iron-sulfur complexes may vary by hundreds of kJ/mol among different DFT methods. In the present study, we examine the rela
False lumen management of chronic aortic dissections has evolved during the past decade. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) continues to be the mainstay of endovascular dissection treatment and relies on the adequate sealing of the proximal entry tear. However, TEVAR alone often fails to achieve aortic remodeling due to persistent distal retrograde perfusion of the false lumen with contin
Automated sorption balances are widely used for characterizing the interaction of water vapor with hygroscopic materials. This paper is part of an interlaboratory study investigating the stability and performance of automated sorption balances. A previous paper in this study investigated the mass, temperature, and relative humidity (RH) stability of automated sorption balances by looking at the ma
This report reviews the published results of searches for possible additional scalar particles and exotic decays of the Higgs boson performed by the ATLAS Collaboration using up to 140 fb−1 of 13 TeV proton–proton collision data collected during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. Key results are examined, and observed excesses, while never statistically compelling, are noted. Constraints are plac
