Thermo/hydration responsive shape memory polymers with enhanced hydrophilicity for biomedical applications (open access)

Thermo/hydration responsive shape memory polymers with enhanced hydrophilicity for biomedical applications

Article states that thiol-ene/acrylate shape memory polymers (SMPs) have sufficient stiffness for facile insertion and precision placement and soften after exposure to physiological conditions to reduce the mechanical mismatch with body tissue; as a result, they have demonstrated excellent potential as substrates for various flexible bioelectronic devices, such as cochlear implants, nerve cuffs, cortical probes, plexus blankets, and spinal cord stimulators. Here, the authors report a new strategy for designing SMPs with enhanced shape recovery properties and lower moduli than previously reported SMPs under physiological conditions without sacrificing stiffness at room temperature by introducing a hydrophilic monomer.

PharmaChain: A blockchain to ensure counterfeit‐free pharmaceutical supply chain (open access)

PharmaChain: A blockchain to ensure counterfeit‐free pharmaceutical supply chain

Article discusses how globalisation has facilitated different industries to eliminate geographical boundaries and equipped organisations to work collectively to produce goods. The authors of the article propose a novel Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) based transparent supply chain for PSC and proof-of-concept is implemented to analyse the scalability and efficiency of the proposed architecture.

GenCyber Teachers Camp (open access)

GenCyber Teachers Camp

Data management plan for the grant, "GenCyber Teachers Camp." The goal of the UNT GenCyber Teacher Camp is to increase the cybersecurity expertise of middle and high school Computer Science teachers so that they can introduce cybersecurity curriculum into their classrooms. We will recruit 20 teachers who teach Computer Science and STEM-related middle/high school courses. We will create modules that teachers can use to create positive environments for students and thus to motivate them to gain interest in cybersecurity.

Role of Artificial Intelligence for Analysis of COVID-19 Vaccination-Related Tweets: Opportunities, Challenges, and Future Trends (open access)

Role of Artificial Intelligence for Analysis of COVID-19 Vaccination-Related Tweets: Opportunities, Challenges, and Future Trends

Article states that vaccines, though reliable preventative measures for diseases, also raise public concerns; public apprehension and doubts challenge the acceptance of new vaccines including the COVID-19 vaccines. This study is the first attempt to review the role of AI approaches in COVID-19 vaccination-related sentiment analysis.
