The complex microbial community residing in the human gut has long been understood to regulate gastrointestinal physiology and to participate in digestive diseases, but its extraintestinal actions and influences are increasingly recognized. This article discusses bidirectional interactions between the gut microbiome and athletic performance, metabolism, longevity and the ability of the gut-brain axis to influence cognitive function and mental health.

One of the tenets of a posthuman vision is the eradication of disability through technology. Within this site of 'no future', as Alison Kafer describes, the disabled body is merged with artificial intelligence technology or transformed into a prosthetic superhuman. These imaginative possibilities are materialised in a future-oriented mindset in contemporary technological innovation, including hearing aids and other devices-such as vibrating vests to 'feel sounds' or sign language gloves, what design critic Liz Jackson defines as 'disability dongles'-designed to bypass deafness that simultaneously provide a 'cure' and create a 'post-deaf reality'.

Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells are essential for normal retinal function. Morphological defects in these cells are associated with a number of retinal neurodegenerative diseases. Owing to the cellular resolution and depth-sectioning capabilities, individual RPE cells can be visualized in vivo with adaptive optics-optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT).

Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) can be used to automatically analyze large image datasets. One valuable application of this approach is estimation of plant trait data contained within images. Here we review 39 papers that describe the development and/or application of such models for estimation of stomatal traits from epidermal micrographs.

The rapidly developing field of artificial intelligence (AI) may soon equip clinicians with algorithms that model and predict perioperative problems with extreme accuracy. Here, we outline emerging AI applications in preoperative risk stratification and intraoperative event prediction, where algorithm performance has been shown to outstrip commonly used conventional risk prediction tools. While offering an enticing view of a novel perioperative practice with superhuman foresight, AI's limited scope and lack of transparency remain key challenges for widespread adoption.
