This study evaluated the behavioral, physiological, and molecular effects of social isolation (SI) in adult zebrafish, and whether the animals recover such changes after their reintroduction to the social environment. The results show that SI altered social behaviors, neural activity, and serotonergic and dopaminergic signaling in zebrafish, but these changes were reversed after the animals were reintroduced to a social context for 6 days.

In this chapter, interesting research progress on nanoclay-based materials for energy storage and conversion applications is discussed. Some of the notable advantages of using this class of materials for electrochemical applications include its availability, low cost, porous structures, hydrophilic nature, high specific surface, high thermal stability, mechanical stability, and good ionic conductivity. The discussion speculates that the field can be potentially employed in fabricating inexpensive, scalable, application-specific nanoclay-based materials for advanced energy applications.

This study examines the social adaptation of Ukrainian refugee students in Czech schools through interviews with students, parents, teachers, and headteachers. Using Berry's acculturation model, it identifies three adaptation types�openness to friendship, utilitarian friendships, and (self-)isolation�shaped by ethnicity, language acquisition, and peer interactions.

More than 1100 people came together virtually on 18 June 2024 for the tenth edition of the RELX SDG Inspiration Day: "In the Age of AI: Information to Advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)." The annual online event brings together thought leaders, corporate representatives, students, investors, governments, and NGOs to explore pressing issues, gain practical insight, and inspire action on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
