This is an open access book.The 6th Biennial Conference of the Organization for Women in Science for the Developing World (OWSD) Nigeria, with the theme 'Diversity and Innovation in Science for Sustainable Development,' took place from July 2nd to July 6th, 2023. The conference commenced each day at 10 am and kicked off with a Pre-Conference Workshop titled 'Equipping Next Generation Researchers.' The event was hosted at the Ebitimi Banigo Auditorium, University of Port Harcourt, Nigeria, and featured a hybrid format, with over 250 participants joining both in-person and virtually.The Conference encompassed nine Session Tracks, each addressing a specific aspect of scientific advancement and development:• Track 1: Digital Technologies in Science and Technology Education.• Track 2: Computational Methods and Scientific Applications.• Track 3: Green Energy and Sustainable Ecosystems.• Track 4: Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, and Nanotechnology.• Track 5: Smart Farming, Agricultural Processes, and Food Security.• Track 6: Environment, Climate Change, and Innovative Solutions.• Track 7: Medical and Biomedical Research.• Track 8: Engineering, Robotics, and Artificial Intelligence Research.• Track 9: Social Science and Arts in Science and Medicine.These specialized tracks allowed participants to explore a wide range of topics and engage in fruitful discussions, fostering knowledge exchange and collaboration, and contributing to the overarching goal of promoting diversity and innovation in science for sustainable development, with a focus on encouraging women's participation in STEM fields.

The European Society for Engineering and Medicine is representative of both the engineering and medicine communities, with membership drawn across Europe. The aim of the society is to provide a bridge between the two communities to facilitate engineering solutions to medical problems. The ESEM 2001 conference had a real-world focus and scientific papers were selected on the basis of their clinical application. Contributors at the conference were worldwide to reflect the global relevance and significance of the topics. The papers reflect the three main tracks of the conference: health information systems; bioengineering; and medical instrumentation and imaging. Within each of these areas there are a number of sub-themes on a diverse range of topics, such as: tissue engineering and artificial organs; computers in medicine; and biomedical processing and modelling. This volume is a record of the oral and poster presentations made at the conference, with an overview of the conference structure and a list of keynote speakers.

This volume presents a systematic philosophical theory related to the collectivism-versus-individualism debate in the social sciences. A weak version of collectivism (the "we-mode" approach) that depends on group-based collective intentionality is developed in the book. We-mode collective intentionality is not individualistically reducible and is needed to complement individualistic accounts in social scientific theorizing. The we-mode approach is used in the book to account for collective intention and action, cooperation, group attitudes, social practices and institutions as well as group solidarity.

Taking an integrated approach to the biology of marine carnivores, cetaceans, and sirenians, twenty-two prominent researchers compare marine mammals with one another and with terrestrial mammals, providing a framework for fundamental biological and ecological concepts. They describe functional morphology, sensory systems, energetics, reproduction, communication and cognition, behavior, distribution, population biology, and feeding ecology. They also detail the physiological adaptations—for such activities and processes as diving, thermo-regulation, osmoregulation, and orientation—that enable marine mammals to exploit their aquatic environment.

Director, producer and screenwriter Joss Whedon is a creative force in film, television, comic books and a host of other media. This book provides an authoritative survey of all of Whedon's work, ranging from his earliest scriptwriting on Roseanne, through his many movie and TV undertakings--Toy Story, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Dr. Horrible, The Cabin in the Woods, and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.--to his forays into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The book covers both the original texts of the Whedonverse and the many secondary works focusing on Whedon's projects, including about 2000 books, essays, articles, documentaries and dissertations.
