    Safeguarding Health Data: Navigating Legal Complexities in the Digital Age
    (Nitya Publications, Bhopal MP India, 2025) Wasim Ahmad, Mohd. Tahir Husain
    In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, healthcare data emerges as both a catalyst for medical innovation and a source of significant privacy concerns. This chapter provides an in-depth legal examination of healthcare data protection, tracing the transition from conventional health records to intricate digital networks. As health data is inherently sensitive, the chapter scrutinizes international legal frameworks, including the EU’s GDPR, the US’s HIPAA, and India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, identifying both their robust features and existing gaps. Key legal concepts, such as informed consent, data ownership, confidentiality, and cross-border data transfers, are analyzed to understand their real-world implications. Moving beyond theoretical discussions, the chapter addresses practical risks—from cyberattacks to telemedicine vulnerabilities, and evaluates innovative technological defenses, including AI and blockchain. Furthermore, it considers regulatory practices, the involvement of data protection authorities, and enforcement tactics, ultimately reflecting on the challenging interplay between healthcare innovation and data privacy.

    Role of Artificial Intelligence in Hydrological Modelling
    (Multi Spectrum Publications, 2025) Nida Fatma, Amina Jafri, Monowar Alam Khalid, Arpit Chouksey
    Hydrological modelling involves simulating the movement, distribution and behaviour of water within a watershed or catchment area using mathematical equations and computational tools. It uses simplified representations of realworld systems to understand, predict, and manage water resources, encompassing processes like precipitation, runoff, river discharge, evaporation, infiltration, flood forecasting and groundwater flow. These models are useful in water resource management, flood control, drought assessment, and climate change impact studies. These models are useful in predicting the quantity and quality of water in a watershed necessary for the effective management of water resources [Kambarbekov and Baimaganbetov, 2024]. There are many traditional hydrological models developed to apply on numerous watersheds to find out the impact of climate and soil properties on hydrology and water resources [Devia et al., 2015]. The best model is the one that gives close to reality results with the use of the least parameters and the complexity of the model [Devia et al., 2015].

    Role of Artificial Intelligence in Teaching and Learning Chemical Sciences
    (Bentham Science Publishers Pte. Ltd. Singapore, 2024) Shahla Tanveer, Mariyam Tanveer, Ayesha Tanveer
    Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing our everyday tasks, and education has certainly not been left behind. AI harnesses technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, and deep learning, to execute tasks and elevate our problem-solving capabilities. The infinite possibilities that arise due to interactions between atoms and molecules further leading to bond formation are nearly impossible for a human to comprehend. Thus, AI is playing a vital role in understanding chemistry by accelerating research, designing novel molecules, and optimizing processes. AI plays a diverse role, from assisting in drug discovery research to identifying new drug targets to supporting personalized learning experiences that aid students in their learning journeys. AI-powered adaptive learning system identifies a student’s performance and tailor the learning requirements accordingly. Students receive real-time feedback and personalised content helping them to understand the concepts more easily. AI is being used to develop interactive simulations and customized learning programs to help students learn chemistry more efficiently. Virtual laboratories driven by AI provide a safe and reachable environment for hands-on experience. This allows students to be inquisitive about chemical reactions, molecular structures, and their spectroscopic analysis in a risk-free environment. Some examples include Chat GPT, which helps create a customized learning experience for students while helping them answer their queries, an AI-powered tutoring system known as Socratic, which helps the students learn chemistry concepts, and Molecules in Motion (an AI-powered simulation) to inspect the behaviour of molecules. This chapter discusses how the union of AI and chemical sciences has accelerated innovation in the field of chemistry and can further improve learning outcomes.
