Rare <i>Wolbachia</i> genotypes in laboratory <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> strains by A. S. Ryabinin, O. D. Shishkina, Yu. Yu. Ilinsky, R. A. Bykov

“…The wMel genotype is predominant in natural D. melanogaster populations and is distributed all over the world. The CS genotypes, on the other hand, are of particular interest because it is unclear how they are maintained in the fruit f ly populations since they should have been eliminated from them due to their low frequency and genetic drift or been replaced by the wMel genotype. …”

Dropping the baton: Cognitive biases in emergency physicians. by Mingwei Ng, Evelyn Wong, Guek Gwee Sim, Pek Jen Heng, Gareth Terry, Foo Yang Yann

“…This dispersion of cognitive reasoning across individuals, teams and systems (termed "distributed cognition") means that our understanding of cognitive biases and errors must expand beyond traditional "in-the-head" individual mental models and focus on a broader "out-in-the-world" context instead. To our knowledge, no qualitative studies thus far have examined cognitive biases in clinical settings from a team-based sociocultural perspective. …”

A blind navigation guide model for obstacle avoidance using distance vision estimation based YOLO-V8n by EBERE CHIDI, Edward Anoliefo, Collins Udanor, Asogwa Tochukwu Chijindu, Lois Onyejere Nwobodo

“…Upon selection of the best model, it was further validated through comparison with other state-of-the art algorithms before deployment for obstacle avoidance in an indoor environment, having satisfied the condition of reliability. Real world testing of the model was performed at four different indoor sites, and the results showed that while the model was able to correctly classify objects, it could also measure their distance accurately, thereby making it suitable for deployment as a blind vision guide navigation system.  …”
