Background: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition with significant cognitive and social impacts. Identifying reliable biomarkers for ADHD is crucial for developing personalised therapies. Electroencephalography (EEG) alpha oscillations (8–12 Hz) have been suggested ...

Alpha oscillations (~10 Hz) have been hypothesized to gate information flow in the brain by inhibiting task-irrelevant and disinhibiting task-relevant processing. Recent work using independent component analysis (ICA) showed that functionally distinct alpha components co-exist during a working-memory task....

Current literature on atheism, due to a lack of cultural nuance or specification, often assumes that religious decline in Hinduism functions similarly to Abrahamic religions. In doing so, it ignores the pluralistic nature of Hinduism, where religious practice varies by linguistic community&#...

What explains the ubiquity of religions across time and space, and why do these supernatural belief systems seem to have so much in common? Many cognitive scientists of religion have proposed that cross-cultural patterns in religious belief are, at least in part, the indirect ...

Numerical process simulation is increasingly used to optimize direct-chill (DC) casting of aluminum alloys, yet crack-susceptibility predictions depend critically on the constitutive–property databases employed. This study presents a sensitivity analysis of the ALSIM DC casting model with respect to m...

This pre-reading background document was prepared for the Funders Forum: Aligning for Impact, on April 9-10, 2026, co-hosted by Wellcome and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), in partnership with the Impact Funders Forum. The document was produced to support ...

Current Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems remain constrained by their reliance on handcrafted feature extraction and centralized cloud processing, limiting their real-time performance, scalability, and deployment on resource-constrained infrastructure. This study seeks to overcome these limitations by ...
