The authors looked at how students performed on standardized tests when they were taught material via memorization vs. conceptual based approaches.
Read More...The impact of conceptual versus memorization-based teaching methods on student performance
The authors looked at how students performed on standardized tests when they were taught material via memorization vs. conceptual based approaches.
Read More...The impact of temperature on the hydrolysis of potato starches into simple sugars
The authors looked at how storage temperature of potatoes can impact the sweetness of potatoes (due to the break down of the starch into simple sugars).
Read More...Initiating astrocyte to neuron transdifferentiation via miR-124a: implications in neurodegenerative disease
The authors looked at whether they could induce the formation of new neurons from astrocytes via the upregulation of a microRNA (miR-124a). They found that upregulation of miR-124a started transdifferentiation of neurons, but was not enough to lead to full conversion of astrocytes to neurons.

The authors design and test an easy-to-use and cost-effective mobile app-based alert system to help senior citizens rapidly communicate with caregivers in emergencies or when in need of assistance.
Read More...The relationship between multilingualism and visual imagery: Investigating aphantasia using the VVIQ
The authors looked at the correlation between being able to speak more than one language (multilingualism) and visual imagery. They found multilingual individuals had higher visual imagery as measured by the VVIQ.
Read More...Mitigating open-set misclassification in a colorectal cancer detecting neural network
The authors develop a machine learning method to reduce misclassification of objects in safety-critical applications such as medical diagnosis.
Read More...The effects of varied N-acetylcysteine concentration and electronegativity on bovine mucus hydrolysis
The authors evaluated the effect of concentration and variant of N-Acetylcysteine in hydrolyzing mucus.
Read More...Identifying anxiety and burnout from students facial expressions and demographics using machine learning
The authors used machine learning to predict the presence of anxiety and burnout in students based on facial expressions and demographic information.
Read More...A 1D model of ultrasound waves for diagnosing of hepatomegaly and cirrhosis
The authors created a 1D model to diagnose hepatomegaly and cirrhosis via ultrasound of the liver.
Read More...Predictive modeling of cardiovascular disease using exercise-based electrocardiography
The authors looked factors that could lead to earlier diagnosis of cardiovascular disease thereby improving patient outcomes. They found that advances in imaging and electrocardiography contribute to earlier detection of cardiovascular disease.
