INTRODUCTION
Loneliness is postulated to be a risk factor for dementia. However, the findings are inconsistent, and long-term studies on this association remain scarce.
METHODS
In all, 9389 participants self-reported loneliness in the Trøndelag He... Read More about Loneliness trajectories and dementia risk: Insights from the HUNT cohort study.

Where are the inequalities in colorectal cancer care in a country with universal healthcare? A systematic review and narrative synthesis (2024)
Journal Article
Pickwell-Smith, B. A., Spencer, K., Sadeghi, M. H., Greenley, S., Lind, M., & Macleod, U. (2024). Where are the inequalities in colorectal cancer care in a country with universal healthcare? A systematic review and narrative synthesis. BMJ open, 14(1), e080467. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2023-080467

OBJECTIVE: Patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer living in more deprived areas experience worse survival than those in more affluent areas. Those living in more deprived areas face barriers to accessing timely, quality healthcare. These barriers...

Fast mapping in hominids (2025)
Journal Article
Labertoniere, D., Wilson, V. A., Pascual-Guàrdia, C., Skoruppa, K., & Zuberbühler, K. (2025). Fast mapping in hominids. Animal Cognition, 28(1), 53. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10071-025-01974-x

Fast mapping is essential when children acquire language, but whether the required cognition is uniquely human or shared with animals is debated. Although documented in dogs and cats, both species have a history of domestication of social cognition,... Read More about Fast mapping in hominids.

PolicyMamba: Localized Policy Attention With State Space Model for Land Cover Classification (2025)
Journal Article
Ahmad, M., Mazzara, M., Distefano, S., Mehmood Khan, A., Hassaan Farooq Butt, M., & Hong, D. (in press). PolicyMamba: Localized Policy Attention With State Space Model for Land Cover Classification. IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, https://doi.org/10.1109/tnnls.2025.3586836

Multihead self-attention and cross-attention mechanisms often suffer from computational inefficiencies, limited scalability, and suboptimal contextual understanding, particularly in hyperspectral image (HSI) classification. These mechanisms struggle... Read More about PolicyMamba: Localized Policy Attention With State Space Model for Land Cover Classification.
