Summary: Research involving the recently deceased can fill a research gap and reduce harm to animals and living human subjects. However, it also presents challenges in terms of honoring the donor's legacy, respecting the rights of donor loved ones, resource allocation, and public health. To maintain public trust and ethical advancements in research involving the recently deceased, new empirical ethics questions need to be addressed.

Summary: Building solidarity during pandemics involves different tiers, including interpersonal, group, and institutional solidarity. Empathetic accounts of solidarity help us understand how to build solidarity from tier to tier and motivate solidaristic action. During COVID-19, there was a focus on institutional solidarity, often overlooking interpersonal and group solidarity, while during HIV/AIDS, there was an emphasis on bottom-up approaches and lower tiers. Therefore, it is important to establish a strong foundation and promote different tiers of solidarity to improve our responses during pandemics.

Summary: This article provides a detailed analysis of Ilyenkov's conception of the relationship between the logical and the historical. It argues that Ilyenkov's approach marks a significant advance in the understanding of dialectics in the history of Marxism, particularly in his deeper understanding of the inner unity of the method of ascent from the abstract to the concrete and the relation of the logical and the historical.

Summary: The article discusses the relationship between externalism and the structural mismatch argument in color phenomenology. By studying hue variation, distinctions in color tones, and differences in perceived colors among individuals, the author argues that disjunctive properties can explain these phenomena. Finally, the author suggests that correlative externalism provides a better explanation for the correlation between physical properties and color experiences.

Summary: This paper discusses the importance of a research branch in the field of bioethics called 'translational bioethics' and compares the assumptions made by proponents of translational approaches with the reality of bioethics as an academic field. The authors argue that the understanding of the 'translation gap' in bioethics is flawed and provide three interpretations of this gap. They demonstrate how a proper understanding of the nature of bioethics undermines the formulation of these gaps and questions the need for 'translational bioethics'.

Summary: Research integrity refers to following ethical principles, duties, and professional standards in scientific research. Early training on research integrity is important for early-career researchers to develop good conduct and prevent research misconduct. The study assessed the effectiveness of a training course on research integrity and found that participants' understanding of misconduct rules and procedures significantly increased after the course. The study also highlighted the importance of sharing ethical concerns and creating an environment that promotes research integrity awareness.

Summary: Conceptual engineers should consider the learnability of concepts in their designs, as implementing a concept requires institutional learning in society. The learning sciences have four key implications for conceptual engineering, including adequacy criteria, conceptual prevalence, the normativity of concepts, and empirical evidence, which are significant for future interdisciplinary exchanges between the learning sciences and conceptual engineering.

Summary: This study examines consumers' intention to repair hardware and investigates the perceived outcomes of repair practices. The results show that intention to repair is influenced by factors such as pro-environmental behavior, repair-related factors, and beliefs about legislation. Furthermore, consumers with a stronger intention to repair also have a more positive perception of repair decisions, technology manufacturers, and the performance of repaired devices. These findings provide insights for policymakers and manufacturers in promoting the adoption of repair practices.

Summary: This research demonstrates that an organizational top dog narrative increases the intended punishment of company moral transgressions. Observers infer that organizations with a top dog narrative use dominance-based strategies to achieve their status, while companies with an underdog narrative are perceived as less likely to employ such strategies. A debiasing intervention can lessen the punishment of organizations with a top dog narrative.

Summary: Joshua Greene's dual process account argues that deontological moral judgments are the result of automatic, emotional, and arational intuitions. However, the methodologically flawed evidence does not support this claim, but instead supports a social domain account of moral development, where moral intuitions are acquired through rational processes. Therefore, there is no need to abandon deontological moral intuitions, as intuitions can be useful tools in guiding moral reasoning.

Summary: Egypt has the highest number of retractions in Africa and ranks second highest in the Middle East, according to the Retraction Watch database. This study analyzed retracted medical publications from Egyptian affiliations to identify specific problems and solutions. The findings revealed an increasing number of retractions over the years, with Obstetrics and Gynecology being the most affected specialty. Unreliable results, FFP level misconduct, and duplicate publication were identified as the top reasons for retraction. Mansoura University had the highest retraction rate among institutions, while Cairo University had the lowest. The study emphasizes the need for future research to consider the institutions involved in retracted articles to gain a better understanding of specific problems in different countries or regions.
