A case study on experiences with integrated technologies in a care home for older adults.

To facilitate independent living for the growing population of older adults, innovative housing solutions such as novel concepts of care homes with integrated technologies have been developed. This case study exposes a significant gap between the intended goal of fostering independence in older adults and the actual impact of technology on their daily lives. The study explored perceptions, experiences, and needs regarding residents' use of integrated technologies along with the technologies' contribution to handling their everyday life in a Care+ home.

Solvent concentration at 50% protein unfolding may reform enzyme stability ranking and process window identification.

As water miscible organic co-solvents are often required for enzyme reactions to improve e.g., the solubility of the substrate in the aqueous medium, an enzyme is required which displays high stability in the presence of this co-solvent.

Physician Assistant Student Attitudes About People With Serious Mental Illness.

Experienced barriers in the use of ICT for social interaction in older adults ageing in place: a qualitative systematic review protocol (SYSR-D-22-00848).

Background: Several information and communication technologies (ICT) have been developed to enhance social connectedness of older adults aging in place, although they are not accessible for all. Barriers in using ICT might for example relate to health issues, sensory loss, lack of technical skills, or reluctance to use technologies. Though knowledge on these barriers is crucial for the development and implementation of ICT for older adults, no systematic review was found on this subject.
