Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the central technologies of the fourth industrial revolution. A significant part of the production of surplus value in the XXI century is associated with the mastery and widespread introduction of tech...

Recent Advances on Federated Learning for Cybersecurity and Cybersecurity for Federated Learning for Internet of Things

Decentralized paradigm in the field of cybersecurity and machine learning (ML) for the emerging Internet of Things (IoT) has gained a lot of attention from the government, academia, and industries in recent years. Federated cybersecurity (F...

Cybersecurity, Data Privacy and Blockchain: A Review

In this paper, we identify and review key challenges to bridge the knowledge-gap between SME's, companies, organisations, businesses, government institutions and the general public in adopting, promoting and utilising Blockchain technology....

A Survey on Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity

The “black-box” nature of artificial intelligence (AI) models has been the source of many concerns in their use for critical applications. Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a rapidly growing research field that aims to create mac...

Defining Social Engineering in Cybersecurity

Social engineering has posed a serious security threat to infrastructure, user, data and operations of cyberspace. Nevertheless, there are many conceptual deficiencies (such as inconsistent conceptual intensions, a vague conceptual boundary...

Hardware-Anchored ES-SPA: A Dynamic Zero-Trust Architecture for Secure eSIM Provisioning in 6G IoT via Moving Target Defense

The rapid evolution of 6G networks and large-scale Internet of Things (IoT) deployments intensifies security and privacy challenges in embedded SIM (eSIM) Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP), particularly during the bootstrap and profile delivery...

Cybersecurity and Cyberwar

Abstract Dependence on computers has had a transformative effect on human society. Cybernetics is now woven into the core functions of virtually every basic institution, including our oldest ones. War is one such institution, and the digita...

Evolution of psychological distress with age and its determinants in later life: evidence from 17-wave social survey data in Japan

Abstract Background Psychological distress (PD) is a major risk factor for mental health among middle-aged and older adults and affects their quality of life and well-being. This study aimed to examine the evolution of PD with age and the r...

The Evolution of Phytochemical and Medicinal Plant Research in Chile: Status, Opportunities, and Challenges

Background: The global use of herbal medicines and research on plant bioactive compounds have steadily increased. In Chile, this growth is linked to ethnobotanical knowledge and advances in phytochemistry, although gaps persist in its evolu...

Correction: Dutch participatory surveillance framework for evaluating evolutionary changes on SARS-CoV-2 affecting rapid diagnostic test sensitivity in 2022 − 2023

Artificial intelligence in public health: promises, challenges, and an agenda for policy makers and public health institutions

Artificial intelligence (AI) can rapidly analyse large and complex datasets, extract tailored recommendations, support decision making, and improve the efficiency of many tasks that involve the processing of data, text, or images. As such, ...

Tailoring the active site for the oxygen evolution reaction on a Pt electrode

Electrocatalytic oxygen evolution is a key reaction for water splitting, but the detailed atomic structures of single-crystal electrodes under cycling conditions are still not fully understood. Here, the authors study the oxygen evolution a...

Advances in CAR T cell therapy: antigen selection, modifications, and current trials for solid tumors

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has revolutionized the treatment of hematologic malignancies, achieving remarkable clinical success with FDA-approved therapies targeting CD19 and BCMA. However, the extension of these successe...

Invertebrate Ecological Immunology

Ecological immunology is a rapidly expanding field that examines the causes and consequences of variation in immune function in the context of evolution and of ecology. Millions of invertebrate species rely solely on innate immunity, compar...

Wild immunology

In wild populations, individuals are regularly exposed to a wide range of pathogens. In this context, organisms must elicit and regulate effective immune responses to protect their health while avoiding immunopathology. However, most of our...

Worldwide productivity and research trend of publications concerning extracellular vesicles role in fibrosis: A bibliometric study from 2013 to 2022

Background: Fibrosis is a heavy burden on the global healthcare system. Recently, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated that Extracellular vesicles play an important role in intercellular communication under both physiological a...

Immunology for physicists

The immune system is a complex system of cells and molecules that can provide us with a basic defense against pathogenic organisms. Like the nervous system, the immune system performs pattern recognition tasks, learns, and retains a memory ...

Fundamental Immunology

The first great revolution in immunology is credited to Louis Pasteur. Among the many achievements stemming from that early period is the elimination of smallpox from the entire world in 1977, a century later. The second great revolution, b...
