Large sections of the medical community have, in the past, thought of human olfaction as a minor sense that was destined to disappear soon. This view has changed completely in the last two decades. This article will attempt to highlight the most important recent advances in our understanding of the human olfactory function and focus in particular on questions for the future and developments required in this field.

Objectives: Media exposure to extreme police violence is an increasingly widespread problem that has negative consequences for the mental health of viewers. Black Americans are disproportionately impacted by police violence and its negative consequences, but little is understood from their own perspectives as media viewers.
Method: The present study uses a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to better understand Black American experiences of witnessing lethal police violence toward Black Americans via social media.

There has been a significant recent surge in the number of studies interrogating chiral molecules in the gas phase using photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) and related techniques. These investigations have revealed new fundamental insights into the structure and dynamics of chiral species and, furthermore, have the potential to revolutionize the field of chiral analysis for more practical and industrial applications. As it has been just over 20 years since the first PECD imaging experiments were demonstrated - and 10 years since the last dedicated general perspective article on the topic - a new overview now seems extremely timely.

Objective: Community engagement is an increasingly important component of ancient DNA (aDNA) research, especially when it involves archeological individuals connected to contemporary descendants or other invested communities. However, effectively explaining methods to non-specialist audiences can be challenging due to the intricacies of aDNA laboratory work. To overcome this challenge, the Anson Street African Burial Ground (ASABG) Project employed a GoPro camera to visually document the process of aDNA extraction for use in community engagement and education events.

The Brook rearrangement has emerged as one of the most pivotal transformations in organic chemistry, with broad applications spanning organic synthesis, drug design, and materials science. Since its discovery in the 1950s, the anion-mediated Brook rearrangement has been extensively studied, laying the groundwork for the development of numerous innovative reactions. In contrast, the radical Brook rearrangement has garnered comparatively less attention, primarily due to the challenges associated with the controlled generation of alkoxyl radicals under mild conditions.

Indonesian adolescents face an increased risk of developing mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety, largely due to insufficient mental health literacy and awareness. This lack of knowledge often leads to delayed recognition and treatment. To address this, the present descriptive qualitative study explores Indonesian adolescents' perceptions of mental health challenges and needs.
