This article provides a computational analysis of the behavioural effects of ADHD and its epigenetic factors including the DNA methylation in relation to the ST3GAL3 gene. As individuals with ADHD are at risk of consuming digital media in an unhealthy manner, the behavioural effects are considered in the context of problematic digital media use (PDMU). This is examined in relation to the associated neurological impairments in self-regulation as well as reward processing. The paper includes a systematic literature review combined with a higher-order adaptive dynamical system modelling approach to simulate these mental and behavioural dynamics.

Help Dr. Said Build a Hospital and School in Zanzibar

 

Dr. Said’s knowledge has a family history. In a 2016 National Geographic profile, he described learning from his grandfather as a child, gathering plants and preparing them under his guidance. What felt like demanding chores gradually became an inheritance: knowledge acquired through practice, observation, and years spent alongside someone who knew how to teach it.

 

Today, Dr. Said wants to give that inheritance a permanent home.

 

His project brings together two purposes: a hospital where he can care for patients through his traditional practice, and a school where he can teach others. His approach draws on plants, spices, and spiritual knowledge rooted in Zanzibar’s traditions. The school would allow this knowledge to reach beyond one practitioner and one family, giving future generations a place to learn.
