The Covid-19 pandemic is characterized by uncertainty and constant change, forcing governments health authorities to ramp up risk communication efforts. Consequently, visuality social media platforms like Twitter have come play a vital role in disseminating prevention messages widely. Yet date, only little known about what characterizes visual during the pandemic. To address this gap literature, study's objective was determine how used on promote World Health Organisations (WHO) recommended...
The online space has become a digital public square, where individuals interact and share ideas on the most trivial to serious of matters, including discussions controversial ethical issues in science, technology medicine. In last decade, new disciplines like computational social science data have created methods collect analyse such that considerably expanded scope research. Empirical bioethics can benefit from integration investigate novel phenomena trace how bioethical take shape online....
Background The discovery of the CRISPR-Cas9–based gene editing method has opened unprecedented new potential for biological and medical engineering, sparking a growing public debate on both dangers CRISPR applications. Given speed technology development almost instantaneous global spread news, it is important to follow evolving debates without much delay in sufficient detail, as certain events may have major long-term impact opinion later influence policy decisions. Objective Social media...
A procedure based on freezing and thawing was developed to induce the rupture of adsorbed lipid vesicles solid surfaces into supported bilayers (SLBs). The SLB assembly exploits phase transition both lipids water during freezing. It enables formation independent type substrates as long spontaneously adsorb onto surface. created is a single bilayer, has diffusion coefficient (0.6–4) × 10−8 cm2 s−1 TiO2, which in same range SLBs formed by conventional techniques. presented approach advantages...
Background Despite the bourgeoning of digital tools for bioethics research, education, and engagement, little research has empirically investigated impact interactive visualizations as a way to translate ethical frameworks guidelines. To date, most take format text-only documents that outline offer guidance on specific contexts. This study's goal was determine whether an interactive-visual supports in transferring knowledge by improving learning, deliberation, user experience.Methods An...
Background Data have become an essential factor in driving health research and are key to the development of personalized precision medicine. Primary secondary use personal data holds significant potential for research; however, it also introduces a new set challenges around consent processes, privacy, sharing. Research institutions issued ethical guidelines address ensure responsible processing However, directed at researchers medical professionals often complex; require readers who...
Abstract Background: In a pandemic, when timely and clear communication is important, visuals on social media can help citizens quickly find understand health risk information. recognition of visuality media’s value during crisis, we investigated popular Covid-19 with posted the platform Twitter. Looking at tweet authors, their use graphics, preventative messages, framing, our objective was to determine how visual Twitter promoted WHO recommendations. Methods: We sourced Twitter’s 500 most...

The rise of digital methods and computational tools has opened up the possibility collecting analyzing data from novel sources, such as discussions on social media. At same time, these introduce a dependence technology, often resulting in need for technical skills expertise. Researchers various disciplines engage empirical bioethics research, software development similar are not usually part their background. Therefore, researchers depend experts to develop apply methods, which can create...
Ion implantation of GaAs presents process requirements differing from standard silicon processing. Different implant species having source are commonly used. devices may be susceptible to different contaminants, including some which common construction materials in implanters intended for applications. Because its physical characteristics, poses handling challenges. In situations, at elevated temperatures is preferred. We examine these differences between and processing describe features...
This paper describes the application and effects of different balancing methods on learning behaviour quality a DCNN using acoustic data. The aim is to show what extent these have positive as well negative use case audio evaluation based synthetic data with multiclass characteristics, because an overlay should be avoided. serves preliminary work in order apply methodology measurement for classification knife sharpness forage harvesters later investigations. According applied methods, are...
"Since the first successful application of gene editing method based on CRISPR/Cas-system, technology has demonstrated great potential but also sparked a series ethical concerns. Some issues are already known from earlier debates. However, possibility CRISPR to target genes with high accuracy and easy that allows biohacker experiment simple toolkit ordered online have introduced new challenges. Further, thanks preprint servers such as bioRxiv, biomedical research results more accessible...
