The recent surge of Large Language Models (LLMs) has led to claims that they are approaching a level of creativity akin to human capabilities. This idea has sparked a blend of excitement and apprehension. However, a critical piece that has been missing in this discourse is a systematic evaluation ...

As global food systems face mounting sustainability pressures, insects are gaining attention as a promising alternative protein source. Yet, entomophagy remains culturally unfamiliar or stigmatized in many Western countries, including Canada. This study investigates attitudes toward insect consumption among 252 adult visitors to the Montreal Insectarium, ...

Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) reflects the greatest amount of oxygen utilized upon exertion. Blood flow restriction (BFR) limits venous return, enabling low-intensity exercise to yield adaptations like high-intensity training. This study examined whether 5 weeks of online resistance training (RT) with BFR straps improves VO2, tidal volume, and resp ...

Sleep plays a role in memory consolidation, with slow oscillations (SO) and sleep spindles (SP) in non-rapid eye movement sleep being central to this process. While closed-loop auditory stimulation of slow oscillations has been well studied, precise real-time targeting of individual sleep spindles to assess their memory impact has remained technically cha ...

The rise in global food demand and the loss in crop production by pests highlight the need for efficient pesticide delivery systems. Stimuli-responsive degradation with thermoresponsive polymers is a promising platform that offers the controlled release of pesticides. Here, we report the development of millimeter-sized thermoresponsive beads (m-beads) com ...

The brain's synaptic network, characterized by parallel connections and feedback loops, drives interaction pathways between neurons through a large system with infinitely many degrees of freedom. This system is best modeled by the graph C*-algebra of the underlying directed graph, the Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger (TCK) algebra, which captures the diversity ...

Background: Genetic studies of stool frequency (SF), an indirect proxy for gastrointestinal transit, may reveal therapeutically tractable pathways relevant to IBS and other dysmotility disorders. Objective: To identify genes and mechanisms involved in gut motility, providing a foundation for cli ...

We propose a new paradigm, as toxicology currently lacks the proper perspective. From the 1950s to the 1970s, at least one-third of all toxicological testing in the United States, including for chemicals and drugs, was misleading scientists, and this worldwide issue persists today. Moreover, petr ...

The Functionality Appreciation Scale (FAS) is increasingly used within diverse national and linguistic contexts, but assessments of its functioning across groups remains limited. To extend knowledge, we examined measurement invariance of the FAS across five Latin American nations (Argentina, Chil ...

Persistent oil contamination along coastlines can be treated by surface washing agents (SWAs), while low-temperature conditions can significantly impact the effectiveness of SWAs in oil removal. This study investigates the oil removal performance of a commercial SWA for oiled shoreline sand in cold-region environments. Batch oil removal tests were conduct ...
