Advances in Multi-Scale Analysis of Brain Complexity

In neuroscience, a defining but elusive question regarding the human brain is its astonishingly structural and functional complexity. This complexity arises from the interaction of numerous neuronal circuits that operate over a wide range of temporal and spatial scales, enabling the brain to adapt to the constantly changing environment and to perform various high-level mental functions. Suc…

Advances in Mucoadhesive Polymers and Formulations for Transmucosal Drug Deli…

Pioglitazone has been reported in the literature to have a substantial role in the improvement of overall cognition in a mouse model. With this in mind, the aim of this study was to determine the most efficacious route for the administration of Pioglitazone nanoparticles (PGZ-NPs) in order to promote drug delivery to the brain for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. PGZ-loaded NPs were …

Advances in Molecular Breeding of Vegetable Crops

Molecular vegetable breeding has been progressed intensively in recent years. Huge advances have been made in germplasm evaluation, gene isolation, plant transformation, gene editing and molecular-marker-assisted breeding. The goal of this Special Issue is to highlight, through selected works, frontier research from basic to applied molecular vegetable breeding

Advances in Middle Infrared Laser Crystals and Its Applications

: A Ho:YVO4 laser double-pass-pumped with a 1.91 μm wavelength-stabilized laser diode is presented in this paper. The maximum output power was up to 8.7 W, with a wavelength of 2052.4 nm and a slope efficiency of 37.4%. The

Advances in Hyperspectral Data Exploitation

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has emerged as a promising, advanced technology in remote sensing and has demonstrated great potential in the exploitation of a wide variety of application. In particular, its capability has expanded from unmixing data samples and detecting targets at the subpixel scale to finding endmembers, which generally cannot be resolved by multispectral imaging

African Markets and the Utu-buntu Business Model

The persistence of indigenous African markets in the context of a hostile or neglectful business and policy environment makes them worthy of analysis. An investigation of Afrocentric business ethics is long overdue. Attempting to understand the actions and efforts of informal traders and artisans from their own points of view, and analysing how they organise and get by, allows for viable approa…

Advances in Plastic Forming of Metals

The forming of metals through plastic deformation comprises a family of methods that produce components through the re-shaping of input stock, oftentimes with little waste. Therefore, forming is one of the most efficient and economical manufacturing process families available. A myriad of forming processes exist in this family. In conjunction with their countless existing successful application…

2nd Edition of Health Emergency and Disaster Risk Management (Health-EDRM)

Disasters such as earthquakes, cyclones, floods, heat waves, nuclear accidents, and large-scale pollution incidents take lives and incur major health problems. The majority of large-scale disasters affect the most vulnerable populations, which often comprise extreme ages, remote living areas, and endemic poverty, as well as people with low literacy. Health emergency and disaster risk management…
