In this study, the authors use high-throughput virtual screening to design and evaluate a set of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors for binding affinity to the protein reverse transcriptase. These studies have important applications toward HIV therapies.

Antibiotics are used to treat dangerous diseases. Over time, however, bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics - which poses a threat to humans and animals alike. In this paper, the authors examine how E. coli gains resistance to the antibiotic amoxicillin.

Here the authors used a free radical assay to characterize the antioxidant capacity of three types of coffee beans. They fond that Robusta coffee presented greater inhibition percentages than other species in their free radical assay, indicating higher antioxidant capacity.

The authors designed a system that runs off of body heat to track body temperature that could help prevent injuries that result from elevated body temperature.

In this study, the authors investigate the effects of acidity on the survival of commercial probiotic Lovebug bacterial strains.

Hemani et al. tackled the problem of rampant hospital waste by implementing staff training to help inform hospital workers about proper waste disposal. The authors observed a significant increase in proper waste disposal after the training, showing that simple strategies, such as in-person classroom training and posters, can have a profound effect on limiting improper waste handling.

Impact of carbon tax and dividend on financial security

The authors looked at different combinations of risk-adjusted return measures to determine which combination would provide an optimal return for investors. They found that different combinations performed better dependent on investment timeframe.

Authors examine the effectiveness of Large Language Models (LLMs) like BERT, MathBERT, and OpenAI GPT-3.5 in assisting middle school students with math word problems, particularly following the decline in math performance post-COVID-19.

The impact of age on mental health is a crucial yet understudied aspect of public health. While mental health is gaining recognition as a vital component of overall well-being, its correlation with age remains largely unexplored. In Canada, where the median age has risen significantly over the past half-century, understanding this relationship becomes increasingly pertinent. Researchers hypothesized that older adults would exhibit lower rates of mental health disorders and report better perceived mental health due to increased emotional stability and maturity.
