In radiation oncology, AI-driven tools optimise treatment planning, reduce exposure, and improve patient outcomes through data-informed decision-making. These innovations allow clinicians to focus more on critical reasoning and patient-centred care rather than repetitive tasks. Yet, as automation deepens, concerns about transparency, accountability, and the loss of human oversight grow. This paper examines how AI learns from vast datasets to guide diagnosis and therapy, its role in automating and personalising care, and the ethical challenges that accompany its clinical role. Balancing innovation with human judgment remains essential to ensure AI continues to advance medicine responsibly. 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z The biochemistry of seeing, dating and relationships /library/oar/handle/123456789/142410 Title: The biochemistry of seeing, dating and relationships Abstract: In the modern world of love and connection, we often hear terms like "seeing someone," "dating," and "being in a relationship." These phrases, which may seem interchangeable to some, actually represent different stages in the romantic journey. Each stage elicits unique emotional and physiological responses, driven by complex biochemical processes that influence how we feel, behave, and connect with one another. In this article, we'll explore the subtle distinctions between these stages, examining the underlying biochemical mechanisms that differentiate "seeing someone," "dating," and "being in a relationship." 2025-12-01T00:00:00Z The hidden health benefits of Christmas festive foods /library/oar/handle/123456789/142219 Title: The hidden health benefits of Christmas festive foods Abstract: As the festive season approaches, kitchens around the world begin to fill with the nostalgic aromas of roasting chestnuts, citrus zest, cinnamon, mulled wine, and freshly baked treats.

Amid the chaos of Covid-19, a more unfamiliar virus began to resurface in 2022 - Mpox, formerly known as monkeypox. Historically isolated to parts of West and Central Africa, the sudden spread of this virus to new regions raised global concern. This article explores the epidemiology, history, spread, symptoms, and global response to Mpox, as well as what the future may hold. 2025-11-01T00:00:00Z
