Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.

Decoding Naturalistic Episodic Memory with Artificial Intelligence and Brain‐Machine Interface

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Episodic memory weaves together what, where, and when of experience into a personal narrative. Cutting‐edge AI models may decode this intricate process in real‐life settings, revealing how neural activity encodes naturalistic memories. By merging AI with brain–machine interfaces, researchers are edging closer to mapping and even engineering memory ...

Problem Gambling among Adolescent Girls in Croatia—The Role of Different Psychosocial Predictors

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
Although, compared to boys, adolescent girls gamble less often and less problematically, prevalence studies still show significant numbers of at risk/problem gamblers among girls.

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Integrating Human Intestinal Organoids into FDA'S New Approach Methodologies for Drug Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Illustration summarizes how human intestinal organoids (HIOs) are becoming transformative in preclinical research. Preclinical drug discovery pipelines often rely on animal models for ADMET studies, even though interspecies ADME gaps, poor external validity, and high attrition rates are common.

Review: Insight on Porous Carbon Positive Electrode for Sodium‐Ion Capacitors: Interplay Between Synthesis, Properties, and Performance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sodium ion capacitor (SIC) is currently constrained by the low discharge capacity of commercial activated carbon as positive electrode material. This review provides a holistic summary of research efforts on alternative porous carbon materials for SIC. Image created by the authors with www.biorender.com.

Redefining the Health Risk of Battery Materials Through a Biologically Transformed Metal Mixture

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inhaled NCM particles undergo lysosomal degradation, releasing complex ion mixtures that induce systemic impact. The impact is determined by a critical balance between antagonistic Ni‐Co interactions and synergistic Mn effects. To capture these complexities in risk assessment, we develop an IAI model, ensuring a more accurate quantitative risk ...

Physical Implementation of Optical Material‐Based Neural Networks Processing Enabled by Long‐Persistent Luminescence

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports on the physical implementation of optical material‐based neural processing using long‐persistent luminescence as memory‐retention and nonlinear optical material. The system performs optical‐domain preprocessing with opto‐electronic interfaces for stimulus delivery and readout, enabling real‐time demonstrations including Pong gameplay
