Ren Conference 2024 ha proposto quest’anno un tema molto dibattuto in ambito scientifico e sociale. L’Intelligenza Artificiale (IA), e il nuovo paradigma che porta con sé, ha inevitabilmente coinvolto il mondo dell’educazione e dell’istruzione. Il modo in cui apprendiamo nuove conoscenze è in continua evoluzione con potenziali e radicali trasformazioni nel prossimo futuro. La ricerca si è concentrata principalmente sullo sviluppo di macchine che imitano l'intelligenza umana ed eseguono compiti che richiedono capacità cognitive simili a quelle umane, tra cui l'apprendimento, il pensiero logico e la risoluzione di problemi complessi. Oggi, l’IA è parte integrante della vita quot...

But the true question is how life arose here or elsewhere. Modern comparative genomics has revealed that Darwin was correct; a set of highly conserved genes and cellular functions indicate that all life is related by common ancestry. The Last Universal Common Ancestor or LUCA sits at the base of the Tree of Life. Howe...
This textbook provides a practically applicable sport-centred guide to fracture management for athletes. It features extensive evidence-based guidance on how fracture management can be adapted in athletic patients, to facilitate an accelerated return to sport. Descriptions of a variety of both acute and stress fracture types are included, covering both the appendicular and axial skeleton, in locations such as the shoulder, knee, ankle and spine. Throughout the book, the focus is on enabling the reader to develop a deeper understanding of the ideal management principles that are available for managing fractures in high-functioning patients. Fractures in Sport comprehensively covers the available strategies for managing fractures in professional and amateur athletes, and is ideal for use by practising and trainee orthopaedic surgeons, sports physicians, and general practitioners.
