AN AI-based hybrid model for early Alzheimer’s detection using MRI images by Al-Shoukry, Suhad, Zalili, Musa

“…SPECT imaging with PIB is a very accurate means of identifying very early signs of AD that needs to be treated after prevent further deterioration, lessening the patient’s discomfort and saving money for the healthcare industry in the long run. Because the failures of this approach have been widely identified in early stage detection, it can, therefore, be greatly beneficial to lower the social and economic implications of AD. …”

Towards Health Centered Drug Policy: An Analysis of Past and Developing Drug Policy by Lewis, Benjamin B.

“…Decriminalization has the potential to restore justice to communities decimated by traditional U.S. drug policy and could shift public focus towards medical approaches to treating addiction, however, inertia in drug policy persists, influenced by America’s popular political beliefs about illicit substances. A long-standing narrative in the United States views marijuana as a “gateway drug” that introduces users to harder substances, which then have adverse effects on their health and livelihood. …”

From cellular automata to agent-based models : addressing urban issues by Quek, Wei Liang

“…By proposing a novel combination of serial and parallel expansions, the analytical flow rate shows that optimal efficiencies are achieved via configurations with few (many) lanes of a large (small) number of serial units when the processing time is short (long). The problem of bus bunching can be found in every bus system. …”

Laser-induced reduced-graphene-oxide micro-optics patterned by femtosecond laser direct writing by Low, Mun Ji, Lee, Hyub, Lim, Joel Chin Huat, Suchand Sandeep, Chandramathi Sukumaran, Murukeshan, Vadakke Matham, Kim, Seung-Woo, Kim, Young-Jin

“…Here, we present ultra-thin diffractive LIRGO micro-optics patterned by femtosecond laser direct writing (FsLDW) with high spatial resolution and wide design flexibility based on the wide parametric tunability of femtosecond pulsed lasers over conventional continuous-wave or long-pulsed lasers. By extensive parametric control of average power (10–120 mW), pulse repetition rate (1–500 kHz) and scan speed (1–100 mm/s) in FsLDW, ultra-thin micro-optics were patterned at three patterning regimes: non-thermal photoreduction regime, thermal photoreduction regime, and ablation regime. …”
