After a joint injury, arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) leads to decreased neuromuscular control and strength, as neural inhibition prevents volitional activation of the entire motor neuron pool. Traditional rehabilitation techniques such as strength training are unable to effectively reduce AMI and there is a need to identify interventions that can...
Significant attention has been given to how artificial intelligence (AI) can be utilized by society and in scientific fields in recent years. This article explores how AI tools utilized in various fields have been and can be applied to ecological restoration projects, their affiliated benefits and drawbacks, and what those...
