The era of transformation powered by digitization, improvements in information and communication technology, machine learning, robotics and artificial intelligence is upon us. Today, we are able to solve complex problems with the aid of technology. That notwithstanding, animal populations globally are under threat, with the extinction of species taking place at a far accelerated pace than can be reversed, thus making wildlife conservation a critical issue of our time. Along with wildlife extinction currently underway, there remains a chronic financial shortage for wildlife conservation and the funding shortfall is expanding annually. This research contends that blockchain, the technology underpinning cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin can be utilized as a catalyst by the development of cryptowildlife nonfungible tokens (NFTs), which are provably scarce, unique and programmable digital wildlife collectible assets. These could be used to finance wildlife conservation as a supplementary source of revenue.
Analyses the main legal requirements in the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), general data protection regulation (GDPR) and the intersections between privacy laws, genomic data and smart contracts (such as fungible and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The CCPA and GDPR laws impose several restrictions on the storing, accessing, processing and transferring of personal data. This has generated some challenges for lawyers, data processors and business enterprises engaged in blockchain offerings, especially as they pertain to high-risk data sets such as genomic data. The technical features of NFT, distributed storage and wallets to trace and govern genomic (DNA) data sets will allow data donors to establish digital ownership and control in line with privacy laws using ‘programmable privacy smart contracts’. To be legally compliant, the design of blockchain value propositions should include privacy-by-design capabilities in the smart contract coding language itself. This article describes three domains (privacy laws, genomics and NFTs) and begins to explore how data engineers can address the challenges of coding privacy laws, the legal requirements into smart contracts. This current approach focuses on NFTs and genomic data requirements which include the selection of genetic metadata borrowing from developing ERC specifications and their programming logic. Programmable privacy is a unique way to write and design computer code, which can automatically check the legal compliance of the smart contract in a trust-less and decentralised way. We exemplify the approach by describing the conceptual value proposition, privacy-preserving genomic data platform.
Human aldo-keto reductases (AKR) of the 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D subfamilies are involved in the pre-receptor regulation of nuclear (steroid hormone and orphan) receptors by regulating the local concentrations of their lipophilic ligands. AKR1C3 is one of the most interesting isoforms. It was cloned from human prostate and the recombinant protein was found to function as a 3-, 17- and 20-ketosteroid reductase with a preference for the conversion of Δ4-androstene-3,17- dione to testosterone implicating this enzyme in the local production of active androgens within the prostate. Using a validated isoform specific real-time RT-PCR procedure the AKR1C3 transcript was shown to be more abundant in primary cultures of epithelial cells than stromal cells, and its expression in stromal cells increased with benign and malignant disease. Using a validated isoform specific monoclonal Ab, AKR1C3 protein expression was also detected in prostate epithelial cells by immunoblot analysis.
Immunohistochemical staining of prostate tissue showed that AKR1C3 was expressed in adenocarcinoma and surprisingly high expression was observed in the endothelial cells. These cells are a rich source of prostaglandin G/H synthase 2 (COX-2) and
vasoactive prostaglandins (PG) and thus the ability of recombinant AKR1C enzymes to act as PGF synthases was compared. AKR1C3 had the highest catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) for the 11-ketoreduction of PGD2 to yield 9α,11β-PGF2 raising the prospect that AKR1C3 may govern ligand access to peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPARγ). Activation of PPARγ is often a pro-apoptotic signal and/or leads to terminal differentiation, while 9α,11β- PGF2 is a pro-proliferative signal. AKR1C3 is potently inhibited by non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs suggesting that the cancer chemopreventive properties of these agents may be mediated either by inhibition of AKR1C3 or COX. To discriminate between these effects we developed potent AKR1C inhibitors based on N-phenylanthranilic acids that do not inhibit COX-1 or COX-2. These compounds can now be used to determine the role of AKR1C3 in producing two proliferative signals in the prostate namely testosterone and 9α,11β-PGF2.
The aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily consists of over150 protein members sharing
similar structure and enzymaticactivities. To date, 13 human AKRs have been identified,
andthey participate in xenobiotic detoxification, biosynthesis andmetabolism. Increasing
evidence suggests the involvement ofhuman AKR proteins in cancer development,
progressionand treatment. Some proteins demonstrate multiple function-al features in
addition to being a reductase for carbonylgroups. This review article discusses the most
recent progressmade in the study of humans AKRs.

Aim to help information professionals understand the foundational concepts of this technology and how these are related to libraries so that they can evolve services alongside it.
This column will define what a non-fungible tokens (NFT) is, explore the relevant trends impacting its development and examine how it intersects with the traditional roles of the library. NFTs represent a new and growing technology that intersects with many of the same concepts that are core to librarianship. Libraries are community institutions that engender widespread trust, whereas NFTs are built atop cryptocurrency that seeks to enable anonymous peer-to-peer interactions.

Keto reductases (AKRs) are overexpressed in a large number of human tumors and mediate resistance to cancer chemotherapeutics and antihormonal therapies. Existing drugs and new agents in development may surmount this resistance by acting as specific AKR isoforms or AKR pan-inhibitors to improve clinical outcome.
Ads for blockchain, NFTs and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin seem to be everywhere. Crypto technologies are being promoted as a replacement for banks; a new way to buy art; the next big investment opportunity, and an essential part of the metaverse.
The crypto industry had a fantastic year in 2021. The industry experienced a surge in almost every aspect - from Bitcoin and Ethereum reaching new all-time highs to the mainstream adoption of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

1. NFT-Future TourismTrends
Abstract:
The era of transformation powered by digitization, improvements in information and
communication technology, machine learning, robotics and artificial intelligence is upon us.
Today, we are able to solve complex problems with the aid of technology. That notwithstanding,
animal populations globally are under threat, with the extinction of species taking place at a far
accelerated pace than can be reversed, thus making wildlife conservation a critical issue of our
time. Along with wildlife extinction currently underway, there remains a chronic financial
shortage for wildlife conservation and the funding shortfall is expanding annually. This research
contends that blockchain, the technology underpinning cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin can be
utilized as a catalyst by the development of cryptowildlife nonfungible tokens (NFTs), which are
provably scarce, unique and programmable digital wildlife collectible assets. These could be
used to finance wildlife conservation as a supplementary source of revenue.

The Biggest Future NFTs Trends Everyone Needs To Know About | Bernard Marr
Many others, however, are confident that they bring value and innovation to a number of
different industries, from obvious ones such as gaming and anything involving the metaverse to
less obvious use cases such as real estate, healthcare, and insurance. While so far, most of
what we have seen in the NFT space has been related to art and selling artwork, we are likely to
see many more uses for the technology in years to come. Here’s a look at some of the areas
where exciting work is underway. Collins dictionary – which picked the phrase as its word of the
year for 2021 – defines an NFT as “a unique digital certificate, registered in a blockchain, that is
used to record ownership of an asset such as an artwork or collectible.” Leaving aside the
technical details, an easy way to think about it is a digital certificate of ownership that, because
it is stored on an encrypted, distributed database (a blockchain), cannot be forged, tampered
with, or altered by anyone apart from its owner. This means they can be used as a theoretically
fool proof method of creating scarcity (and hence value) for an otherwise infinitely-replicable
piece of digital information. The information it represents could be a piece of digital art, music, a
piece of clothing or item to wear in a game, the keys to a virtual reality house – potentially
anything that someone might want to be unique. Collins dictionary – which picked the phrase as

NFTs and the metaverse:
The metaverse is a hot topic in technology circles right now, and definitions differ according to
who you ask. Generally speaking, though, it refers to a connected, persistent digital ecosystem
that is more immersive than the existing internet – perhaps involving virtual reality (VR). The
metaverse will let us work, play, socialize, travel, and educate ourselves within a consistent
digital environment. It has been called a trillion-dollar business opportunity and “the biggest
disruptor to how we live our lives, ever seen.” NFTs will play a number of important roles in the
virtual worlds that will make up the metaverse. Firstly, they enable digital items to be unique. We
all know that people in the real world like collecting and showing off rare and unique things, and
there’s no reason to think the virtual world will be any different! It’s already possible to buy
unique artwork to display in your virtual reality art gallery. Similarly, Nike recently sold 600 pairs
of shoes as NFTs – making itself over $3 million in the process. In reality, these were actually
just pictures of shoes that can only be looked at. In the future, it’s likely that they will be
functioning virtual shoes that can be worn by our avatars as we go about our digital lives. Think
of it as being able to kit out your character in a video game in one-of-a-kind clothing that no one
else can own. After all, there’s no reason to think that anyone’s ego will be any smaller in the
metaverse than it is in the real world.
Of course, they remain a controversial topic. Some claim that the energy usage and carbon
emissions connected with their use offset any potential benefit they might have. At least one
company backtracked out of plans to become involved in the trend following negative reception
to the news from their customers.

Many others, however, are confident that they bring value and innovation to a number of
different industries, from obvious ones such as gaming and anything involving the metaverse to
less obvious use cases such as real estate, healthcare, and insurance.

NFTs and the internet of things:
It’s estimated that by 2030 there could be more than 125 billion connected devices in the world.
This huge network of computers, vehicles, appliances, wearables, industrial machinery, and
many other items is what we mean when we talk about the internet of things (IoT) – and many
think that NFTs have an important role to play.
Much of the communication that takes place on the IoT is made up of machine-to-machine
(M2M) communications. Think of the smartphone technology that you may well have in your
own home; for example – devices like smart light bulbs, refrigerators, and AI voice assistants
are all capable of communicating with each other. In a smart factory or warehouse, the same
thing happens but at a far greater scale, as hundreds or thousands of machines all

communicate and exchange data to keep the business running. NFTs are potentially useful here
because they allow machines to authenticate the data that is coming in from other machines.
Basically, this is the digital equivalent of a warehouse manager checking the paperwork when
they take delivery of a container load of inventory.
Ideas like this as already being put into operation today – cybersecurity specialists WISeKey
uses semiconductors implanted onto physical network infrastructure that automatically mint
NFTs in order to certify that the device is trustworthy.
Another initiative is looking at connecting NFTs with city infrastructure assets such as street
lamps, bus shelters, and traffic lights. Here, the tokens would enable accurate data from these
devices to be made available for commercialization by companies looking to develop new
services, such as communications companies.
NFTs in healthcare:
Advocates for the use of NFT technology in the healthcare space point to the fact that it could
one day potentially help individuals to take control of their own health data. It could even let
them make money from it.
Personal healthcare data is bought and sold all the time, generating vast amounts of value.
However, very little of that goes to the person who really owns the data – the patient themself.
Today, it’s easier than ever to generate and collect health data, thanks to the availability of
wearables, monitors, and sensors. Even genomic information is cheapy accessible, thanks to
services that let individuals map and analyze their own DNA information. Many of us have no
idea where the information generated every time we use a device or interact with a service is
ending up. In fact, it turns out that much of this information will probably eventually make its way
to the black market – where an individual healthcare record is said to be around $250. Yes,
even criminals are making more money from our health data than we are.
NFTs allow information to be tagged with
data, which means it can be tracked whenever it is passed on. Not only does this mean better
oversight of where our information ends up, it means one day we could potentially take
advantage of the smart contract capabilities of NFT and blockchain technology to ensure we are
paid the royalties we are due every time our data is passed on.
That’s the theory, anyway – and companies such as Aimedis.io are already exploring ways of
making it a reality. But regardless of whether we will one day be able to claim our share of the
billions that are generated through the sale of health data, NFTs could potentially bring
transparency and accountability to the transfer of this highly sensitive information, and that
alone has to be a good thing.

Conclusion:
6. Of course, for every person proclaiming that NFTs are the future of any (or all) enterprises and
fields of human endeavor, there is another saying it is simply a faddish flash-in-the-pan that will
quickly be forgotten about. The truth is that no one knows for sure what the future holds.
However, it's undeniable that a lot of big players are investing heavily in the technology, and
there's clearly a firm belief, among some very smart and and well-resourced people, that it will
have a role to play in our futures. Certainly, there are pressing issues that need to be addressed
– it would be morally wrong to simply ignore the astronomical energy use involved. But at the
same time, the technology is potentially too transformative to be written off or ignored.
