Article Abstract
This study explores the neural underpinnings of motor skill learning and its transfer across limbs. In a randomized controlled trial, 48 right-handed individuals underwent training on either simple or complex motor tasks using their left or right hand. After completing 10 blocks of training, we assessed skill acquisition and transfer, with a 64-channel EEG capturing brain activity. Results from 47 participants indicated that task complexity and trained hand (dominant or non-dominant) significantly influenced motor skill acquisition and transfer. Notably, complex tasks enhanced alpha and theta coherence in motor and sensorimotor areas, suggesting shared neural mechanisms for skill acquisition and interlimb transfer in complex tasks. These insights shed new light on the neural correlates of acquiring and transferring motor skills, emphasizing the importance of task complexity and trained hand in these processes.

Introduction Simulation-based training has been a vital part of medical education since Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) was introduced, and new guidelines since 2023 have expanded to include simulation as a mandatory methodology of teaching. This method enables learners to build and develop both technical and non-technical abilities in a safe and controlled setting, enhancing their preparedness for real-life medical scenarios. Simulation-based training improves skill acquisition and retention and enhances learners' confidence, reduces anxiety, reinforces learning, corrects errors, and promotes reflective practice, in contrast with the traditional method of teaching.

The adoption of robotic pancreatectomy has grown significantly in recent years, driven by its potential advantages in precision, minimally invasive access, and improved patient recovery. However, mastering these complex procedures requires overcoming a substantial learning curve, and the role of structured mentoring in facilitating this transition remains underexplored. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to comprehensively evaluate the number of cases required to achieve surgical proficiency, assess the impact of mentoring on skill acquisition, and analyze how outcomes evolve throughout the learning process.

This demographic, born between 1981 and 1996, represents a significant portion of caregivers in the United States, with unique challenges due to higher mental distress and poorer physical health compared to non-caregivers. Latinx Millennial caregivers face additional barriers, including higher uninsured rates and increased caregiving burdens.

Tracking the translocation of fluorescent-based reporters at the single-cell level in living mouse embryos requires specialized expertise in mouse embryology and deep computational skills. Here, we detail an approach to quantify cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) activity levels in single cells throughout different stages of the pre-implantation embryo. We discuss in vitro culture strategies that enable efficient live fluorescent confocal image acquisition and subsequent cell tracking.

Background: Conventional automated writing evaluation systems typically provide insufficient support for students with special needs, especially in tonal language acquisition such as Chinese, primarily because of rigid feedback mechanisms and limited customisation.
Objective: This research develops context-aware Hierarchical AI Tutor for Writing Enhancement(CHATWELL), an intelligent tutoring platform that incorporates optimised large language models to deliver instantaneous, customised, and multi-dimensional writing assistance for Chinese language learners, with special consideration for those with cognitive learning barriers.
Methods: CHATWELL employs a hierarchical AI framework with a four-tier feedback mechanism designed to accommodate diverse learning needs.
