Active and passive work breaks during simulated laparoscopy among laparoscopic surgeons: study protocol for a controlled, randomised cross-over laboratory trial

BMJ Open, 2020
Introduction Laparoscopy has partially replaced open surgery due to the lower infection rate for the patient and hence better and shorter recovery. However, the surgeon’s physical load is higher due to longer duration static and awkward body postures ...

Artificial Intelligence Is Stereotypically Linked More with Socially Dominant Groups in Natural Language

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
AI is not seen through an unbiased lens. People tend to stereotype AI as competent and link it with socially advantaged groups—such as men, the wealthy, the young, and prestigious occupations—raising concerns that such perceptions may deepen existing social divides rather than bridge them.
