We investigate whether gender differences in physical maturity during adolescence can explain gender differences in educational and labour market performance. Using survey data with measures of physical maturity linked to register data on education and labour market outcomes, we analyse the importance of physical maturity for gender differences in both the short and long terms. The results show that gender differences in physical maturity partially explain both the gender gap in educational performance (in girls' favour) and the gender gap in labour market outcomes at age 33 (in boys' favour).

- Cells are crucial for studying health and diseases, but traditional models are limited in their ability to accurately represent cell function and behavior.
- Advances in AI and omics technology enable the development of AI virtual cells (AIVCs), complex models that simulate molecular, cellular, and tissue behavior across various conditions.
- The creation of AIVCs aims to enhance biological research by allowing detailed simulations, speeding up discoveries, and promoting collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches in open scientific research.
The cell is arguably the most fundamental unit of life and is central to understanding biology. Accurate modeling of cells is important for this understanding as well as for determining the root causes of disease. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), combined with the ability to generate large-scale experimental data, present novel opportunities to model cells.

The aim of this study was to evaluate how effective the after school program staff perceived nutrition training aiming to improve quality of food purchased and meal practices. We further aimed to assess the changes in purchase of primarily fish and fish products, whole grains and fruit and vegetables, by collecting receipts from food purchase before and after the intervention.
