Introduction: New modes of assessments are needed to evaluate of the authenticity of student learning in an artificial intelligence (AI) world. In mid-2023, we piloted a new assessment type; a collaborative group multimedia assessment with AI allowance. The aim of the research study was to explore the experiences of students using AI in a multimedia assessment.

HeLTI aims to evaluate interventions to improve the health and well-being of mothers and children, starting from preconception through pregnancy and early childhood until age 5 years. This paper describes the process by which we prospectively harmonised the participating studies and provides a descriptive analysis of the study-specific harmonisation potential.

Although evidence suggests an increased risk of developing neurobehavioural disorders in exposed offspring, the mechanisms involved remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated the DNA methylation patterns in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of ACS-exposed guinea pig offspring.
