A tribute to Laszlo Zaborszky: pioneering discoveries in the basal forebrain and inspiring generations of neuroscientists.

Brain Struct Funct

December 2024

School of Medicine, Department of Neuropharmacology, Western Sydney University, Locked Bag 1797, Penrith, NSW, 2751, Australia.

This editorial celebrates the 80th birthday of Distinguished Professor Laszlo Zaborszky, co-founder of Brain Structure and Function, and reflects on his monumental contributions to neuroscience, particularly his pioneering work on the cholinergic basal forebrain. Professor Zaborszky's research has reshaped our understanding of this brain region's organization and function, uncovering its critical role in cognitive processes such as learning, memory, and attention. His findings have challenged longstanding assumptions, demonstrating that the cholinergic projections to the cortex are highly organized, with implications for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's.

The Incarnation of Zoology in the 21st Century as an International Scientific Discipline.

Integr Zool

December 2024

College of Science, Engineering & Technology, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia.

This essay was originally prepared for a special commemorative volume to celebrate the International Zoological Congress (established 135 years ago) and the International Society of Zoological Sciences (ISZS, established 20 years ago). These two institutions underpin international cooperation and promote excellence in zoological research without which the science of zoology would be very much the poorer.

The Role of Biosilica and Its Potential for Sensing Technologies: A Review.

J Biotechnol

December 2024

Laboratory of Electrochemistry and Nanotechnology, Institute of Technology and Research (ITP), Aracaju, Sergipe, Brazil; Process Engineering Graduate Program (PEP), Tiradentes University, Aracaju, Sergipe, Brazil.

Efficiently managing agricultural waste while innovating to derive value-added products is a significant challenge in the 21 century. In recent decades, these by-products have been increasingly explored as alternative sources for materials such as biosilica. Biosilica is renowned for its high surface area, biocompatibility, chemical stability, and modifiable surface, which makes it suitable for various applications.

In this Prentice Medal Award lecture, I shall recount my career in vision science in the context of three types of inspiration-"being inspired," "personal inspiration," and "inspiring others." My research has derived inspiration from a variety of sources, such as contemporary and historical research doyens in the ophthalmic field and beyond, artists, Greek philosophers, and abstract constructs such as principles and adages. A given moment of inspiration can range from being a profound experience to a subtle realization during a quiet moment of reflection.

Background: Climate change is the 21st century's biggest global health threat, endangering health care systems worldwide. Health care systems, and hospital care in particular, are also major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions.

Objectives: This study used a systematic search and screening process to review the carbon footprint of hospital services and care pathways, exploring key contributing factors and outlining the rationale for chosen services and care pathways in the studies.
