A Menu to End Hunger in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Research from the United Nations has found that between 2014 and 2016, 4.2% of the UK population – almost three million people – were ‘severely food insecure’.

Achieving High‐Density and Stress‐Resilient Maize Breeding Via Germplasm Innovation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Global population growth and climate change have exacerbated the global food crisis. This perspective presents a conceptual framework focusing on enhancing population advantages. Several novel breeding objectives are proposed to improve density tolerance and stress resistance for yield improvement.

A Global Scoping Review on Alternative Ready‐to‐Use Therapeutic Foods

open access: yesMaternal and Child Nutrition
Alternative ready‐to‐use therapeutic foods (RUTF) formulations provide an opportunity to lower costs, facilitate local or national ingredient use, and enhance the availability and acceptability of RUTF.

Field‐Free Spin‐Splitting‐Torque Driven Stochastic Neuron Mimicking the Neuromorphic Imagination for High‐Performance Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The human brain's imagination, which enables autonomous driving hazard avoidance by completing missing visual information, relies on Gaussian‐stochastic neuron. We report the altermagnetic RuO2 spintronic neurons integrating field‐free switching and intrinsic Gaussian stochasticity, building an all‐spin ANN for high‐quality image repairing and high ...

Farming with alternative pollinators for increased biodiversity and smallholder incomes in Zimbabwe

open access: yesFrontiers in Agronomy
Pollinator populations have dramatically declined over the past 50 years, with over 40% of invertebrate pollinator species at risk of extinction largely due to intensive agriculture, pesticide use, habitat loss and climate change.

GENETICS AND HUNGER [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1974
HE most surprising fact about agriculture is that it sometimes feeds people, Tthat hunger is not more widespread than it is. This is surprising because in most of the world today food production is not engaged in to feed people, food does not flow from well-fed areas to hungry areas; fluctuations in food production do not follow changing needs.

A Data‐Driven Inverse Design Methodology for Magnetic Soft Millirobots Navigating in Confined Spaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A data‐efficient inverse design framework automates the optimization of magnetic soft millirobots for confined‐space navigation. Integrating a physics‐based Cosserat rod model with Bayesian optimization efficiently identifies high‐performance geometries.

Hunger Incidence in the Philippines: Facts, Determinants and Challenges [PDF]

open access: yes
The high level of hunger incidence in the country is perhaps one of the most pressing issues that need to be addressed by our policy makers. Official government statistics and data from self-rated hunger surveys show an increasing trend in hunger ...

Cost-effectiveness of decentralising acute malnutrition treatment with a standard or simplified treatment protocol: an economic evaluation in the region of Gao, Mali

open access: yesBMC Public Health
Background Acute malnutrition treatment coverage remains low worldwide, causing significant morbidity and mortality. Decentralisation of treatment to Community Health Worker (CHW) sites has shown to be an effective strategy to improve access and increase

Bi-objective goal programming for balancing costs vs. nutritional adequacy

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
IntroductionLinear programming (LP) is often used within diet optimization to find, from a set of available food commodities, the most affordable diet that meets the nutritional requirements of an individual or (sub)population. It is, however, not always
