Microbial laden mobile phones from international conference attendees pose potential risks to public health and biosecurity.

Introduction: Mobile phones, contaminated with pathogenic microorganisms, have the potential to act as "trojan horses". The microbial signatures present on their surfaces most probably vary across different geographical regions. As a result, mobile phones belonging to international conference attendees may serve as a model for global microbial dissemination, posing potential risks to public health and biosecurity.

Wearable magnetoencephalography in a lightly shielded environment.

Wearable magnetoencephalography based on optically pumped magnetometers (OPM-MEG) offers non-invasive and high-fidelity measurement of human brain electrophysiology. The flexibility of OPM-MEG also means it can be deployed in participants of all ages and permits scanning during movement. However, the magnetic fields generated by neuronal currents - which form the basis of the OPM-MEG signal - are much smaller than environmental fields, and this means measurements are highly sensitive to interference.

Care Alert Program in Chronic Recurrent ED Utilizing Patients.

Description The Care Alert program is designed to help navigate encounters with patient populations that are high utilizers of emergency department (ED) resources. These populations often have chronic medical conditions, have a poor understanding of their conditions, are unfamiliar with the EDs' role in the management of these conditions, and commonly lack outpatient resources. The Care Alert program intends to address the needs of this challenging patient population by designing individualized care plans that are approved through a multidisciplinary committee.

Naturalistic Hyperscanning with Wearable Magnetoencephalography.

The evolution of human cognitive function is reliant on complex social interactions which form the behavioural foundation of who we are. These social capacities are subject to dramatic change in disease and injury; yet their supporting neural substrates remain poorly understood. Hyperscanning employs functional neuroimaging to simultaneously assess brain activity in two individuals and offers the best means to understand the neural basis of social interaction.
