Cultural Landscape and Heritage as an Opportunity for Territorial Resilience—The Case of the Border Between Castile and Leon and Cantabria by María Teresa Pérez Cano, Ainhoa Maruri Arana

“…After the COVID-19 pandemic and in a context of overpopulation in large cities, the rural area emerged as a space of opportunity for more sustainable territorial rebalancing. Despite the evident tendency towards their population emptying, they are places endowed with their own qualities and specific values, currently in danger, especially in border areas between the regions, which are far from centralised nuclei and generate conflicts due to the transfer of powers to them from the State. …”

A data-driven group retrosynthesis planning model inspired by neurosymbolic programming by Xuefeng Zhang, Haowei Lin, Muhan Zhang, Yuan Zhou, Jianzhu Ma

“…Retrosynthetic planning, a part of computer-assisted synthesis planning, addresses this challenge by recursively decomposing molecules using symbolic rules and machine-trained scoring functions. However, current methods often treat each molecule independently, missing the opportunity to utilize shared synthesis patterns and repeat pathways, which may contribute from known synthesis routes to newly emerging, similar molecules, a notable challenge with AI-generated small molecules. …”

Can open-defecation free (ODF) communities be sustained? A cross-sectional study in rural Ghana. by Caroline Delaire, Joyce Kisiangani, Kara Stuart, Prince Antwi-Agyei, Ranjiv Khush, Rachel Peletz

“…Multivariate regression analysis indicated that communities had higher toilet coverage when they were located further from major roads, were not located on rocky soil, reported having a system of fines to punish open defecation, and when less time had elapsed since ODF status achievement. Households were more likely to own a functional toilet if they were larger, wealthier, had a male household head who had not completed primary education, had no children under the age of five, and benefitted from the national Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) program. …”
