The Health Law, Policy & Ethics Project at Emory University School of Law and the Human Toxicology Project Consortium of the Humane Society of the United States co-sponsored a symposium on October 23, 2017, to showcase innovations using human-based in silico and in vitro models for drug and device discovery. The goal of the symposium was to introduce researchers and students to exciting new tools and possible future careers that will increase understanding of disease and improve the search for effective therapeutics, while reducing reliance on animal testing. The symposium concluded with a discussion between scientists and lawyers about the legal regulation of new biomedical research technologies.

The epidemiological assessment of wine consumption usually has been obtained using self-reporting questionnaires. In this study, two metabolomic approaches, targeted and untargeted, were applied to 24-h urine samples from a cohort of La Rioja (Spain) (aged 52-78), comparing moderate and daily wine consumers (20 males and 13 females) without diet intervention, versus non-consumers (8 males and 35 females). Results showed that the non-targeted metabolomics approach has allowed for the annotation of sixteen compounds in 24-h urine samples from regular wine-consumers that were not detected in the urine of non-wine consumers.

Background: In recent years, the adoption of large language model (LLM) applications, such as ChatGPT, has seen a significant surge, particularly among students. These artificial intelligence-driven tools offer unprecedented access to information and conversational assistance, which is reshaping the way students engage with academic content and manage the learning process. Despite the growing prevalence of LLMs and reliance on these technologies, there remains a notable gap in qualitative in-depth research examining the emotional and psychological effects of LLMs on users' mental well-being.

In recent years, China has significantly increased its global competitiveness in digital technologies, emphasizing the importance of the digital economy during the high-quality development stage. The question of how firms in traditional industries can achieve digital transformation, which is critical for participating in the digital economy, is still understudied. Using the ability-motivation-opportunity (AMO) framework, this research developed a model and identified six factors' ability, motivation, and opportunity dimensions.

Environmental mechanical forces, such as cell membrane stress, cell extrusion, and stretch, have been proven to affect cell growth and migration. Piezo1, a mechanosensitive channel protein, responds directly to endogenous or exogenous mechanical stimuli. Here, we explored the Piezo1 distribution and microfilament morphological changes induced by mechanical forces in the tumor and normal cells.
