serial highlights new advances in the field, with this new volume
presenting interesting chapters. Each chapter is written by an
international board of authors.
Executive functions develop during the first years of life and
determine future learning and personal development. Executive
dysfunction is related to various neurodevelopmental disorders, so
its study is of great interest for intervention in children with
neurotypical development and in those who have suffered a
neurodevelopmental disorder. The Handbook of Research on
Neurocognitive Development of Executive Functions and Implications
for Intervention offers updated research on executive functions and
their implication in psychoeducational intervention. It establishes
a multidisciplinary context to discuss both intervention experience
and research results in different areas of knowledge. Covering
topics such as childhood inhibitory processing, mindfulness
interventions, and language development, this major reference work
is an excellent resource for psychologists, medical professionals,
researchers, academicians, educators, and students.

Bioinspiration is recognized by the World Health Organization as
having great promise in transforming and democratizing health
systems while improving the quality, safety, and efficiency of
standard healthcare in order to offer patients the tremendous
opportunity to take charge of their own health. This phenomenon can
enable great medical breakthroughs by helping healthcare providers
improve patient care, make accurate diagnoses, optimize treatment
protocols, and more. Unfortunately, the consequences can be serious
if those who finance, design, regulate, or use artificial
intelligence (AI) technologies for health do not prioritize ethical
principles and obligations in terms of human rights and
preservation of the private life. Advanced Bioinspiration Methods
for Healthcare Standards, Policies, and Reform is the fruit of the
fusion of AI and medicine, which brings together the latest
empirical research findings in the areas of AI, bioinspiration,
law, ethics, and medicine. It assists professionals in optimizing
the potential benefits of AI models and bioinspired algorithms in
health issues while mitigating potential dangers by examining the
complex issues and innovative solutions that are linked to
healthcare standards, policies, and reform. Covering topics such as
genetic algorithms, health surveillance cameras, and hybrid
classification algorithms, this premier reference source is an
excellent resource for AI specialists, hospital administrators,
health professionals, healthcare scientists, students and educators
of higher education, government officials, researchers, and
academicians.
