Climate change is outpacing the ability of species and populations to naturally adapt warranting active interventions to boost climate resilience. In their review paper, Gaitán-Espitia and Hobday discuss how such interventions may, however, counter natural evolutionary processes and adaptive capacity if not underpinned by background knowledge from genes through to ecosystems. They present a robust decision framework to guide implementation of climate adaptation interventions to avoid unintended evolutionary outcomes.

Cognition relies on transforming sensory inputs into a generalizable understanding of the world. Mirror neurons have been proposed to underlie this process, mapping visual representations of others' actions and sensations onto neurons that mediate our own, providing a conduit for understanding. However, this theory has limitations.

Background: Traditional methods for analysing surgical processes often fall short in capturing the intricate interconnectedness between clinical procedures, their execution sequences, and associated resources such as hospital infrastructure, staff, and protocols.
Aim: This study addresses this gap by developing an ontology for appendicectomy, a computational model that comprehensively represents appendicectomy processes and their resource dependencies to support informed decision making and optimise appendicectomy healthcare delivery.
Methods: The ontology was developed using the NeON methodology, drawing knowledge from existing ontologies, scholarly literature, and de-identified patient data from local hospitals.
