In 2020, the UK environmental regulators and food safety agencies, published the 25th edition of the Radioactivity in Food and the Environment (RIFE) report. This marks a quarter of a century since the landmark RIFE report was first published by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in 1996, which represented the first joint monitoring and assessment report for the United Kingdom. This paper provides a summary of the RIFE report, how it has evolved and presents some case studies from over the 25 year period.

Background: HIV risk behavior in women who use drugs is related to myriad psychosocial issues, including incarceration. The experience of incarceration elevates women's HIV risk by disrupting social networks, housing, employment, and access to health care. During the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in criminal-legal practices resulted in decreased incarceration, especially among women.

In previous research, the prevailing assumption was that Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) precisely depicted the interconnections among nodes within the graph's architecture. Nonetheless, real-world graph datasets are often rife with noise, elements that can disseminate through the network and ultimately affect the outcome of the downstream tasks. Facing the complex fabric of real-world graphs and the myriad potential disturbances, we introduce the Sparse Graph Dynamic Attention Networks (SDGAT) in this research.

Managing older software code, often referred to as legacy code, entails a great deal of complexity, as the longer a software system has been around, the more likely it has been subjected to revisions and has grown in its interdependencies to other components written at different times by different people. This can lead to software being seen as aging and in decline as it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. At the same time, writing new lines of code or updating to new platforms, languages, and software tools, can also be positioned as a means to rejuvenate organizational work, acting as a salve to overcome hardware limitations, or other forms of stagnation.

This study introduces a cutting-edge, high-resolution tool leveraging the predictive prowess of convolutional neural networks to advance the field of hazard assessment in urban pluvial flooding scenarios. The tool uniquely accounts for the high heterogeneity of urban space and the potential impact of complex climate scenarios, which are often underestimated by traditional data-reliant methods. Employing Shenzhen as a case study, the model showcased superior accuracy, resilience, and interpretability, illuminating potential flood hazards.

Background: The hospital environment is a complex and unpredictable workplace where different providers share the responsibility of patient care. Differences in opinions, values, and experiences between resident physicians and other care team members may trigger conflicts that affect the safety and quality of patient care. Thus, developing conflict competencies may help to negotiate the complexities of different conflict situations and resolve these conflicts.
