Opin vísindi
Opin vísindi er varðveislusafn vísindaefnis og doktorsritgerða í opnum aðgangi á vegum íslenskra háskóla og Landsbókasafns Íslands - Háskólabókasafns.
Opinn aðgangur að rannsóknaniðurstöðum er í samræmi við 10. gr. laga nr. 3/2003 um opinberan stuðning við vísindarannsóknir sem og kröfur innlendra og erlendra rannsóknasjóða. Markmiðið með opnum aðgangi er að niðurstöður rannsókna séu aðgengilegar sem flestum óhindrað og án endurgjalds á rafrænu formi. Vistun í varðveislusafninu er varanleg og ætlað að tryggja aðgang að vísindaefni íslenskra háskóla í opnum aðgangi um ókomna tíð. Varðveislusafnið Opin vísindi er tengt við rannsóknagáttina IRIS og rannsóknaniðurstöður í opnum aðgangi sem eru skráðar í IRIS eru um leið vistaðar og gerðar aðgengilegar til framtíðar í varðveislusafninu. Með því að safna þessu efni saman í eitt safn verður aðgangur að því einfaldur og þægilegur fyrir alla sem vilja kynna sér það og geta þannig notið þess öfluga vísindastarfs sem fram fer í háskólum landsins.
Varðveislusafnið er OpenAIRE / OpenAIREplus samhæft og samrýmist kröfum sem gerðar eru um birtingu rannsóknaniðurstaðna úr verkefnum sem styrkt eru úr evrópsku rannsóknaáætlununum FP7 og H2020.
Varðveislusafnið notar opna hugbúnaðinn DSpace.

Youth mental health crisis : A translational view of the COVID-19 pandemic
(2025-07) Halldorsdottir, Thorhildur; Department of Psychology
Mental health problems among children and adolescents have increased over the past two decades, a trend that was further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. To improve prevention and treatment strategies, developmentally informed and data-driven multidisciplinary approaches are urgently needed to clarify the mechanisms underlying youth vulnerability and resilience. Stress and trauma exposure are among the strongest predictors of youth mental health problems; however, most children and adolescents remain resilient despite such exposures. The widespread and heterogeneous challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic offer a unique opportunity to examine, at scale, who develops mental health problems under stress and who remains resilient. Integrating emerging findings on pandemic-related risk and protective factors with evidence from animal models can illuminate sensitive developmental periods of heightened susceptibility to environmental influence and biological embedding. This approach can identify when, how, and through what pathways mental health problems emerge, including gene–environment interactions and epigenetic mechanisms. Such knowledge will inform both behavioral and pharmacological interventions, pinpointing not only specific treatment targets but also the optimal timing for intervention to be the most effective.
Willful inattention : Integrating visual attention mechanisms and willful ignorance
(2025-10) Orquin, Jacob L.; Pittarello, Andrea; Geng, Joy; Sigurdsson, Valdimar; Department of Business and Economics
Willful ignorance refers to the intentional avoidance of relevant information, even when access is cost-free. We integrate this concept with the idea that visual attention operates along a continuum and define willful inattention as below-baseline attention to relevant information, driven by avoidance motivation. Willful inattention allows individuals to reduce awareness of visually apparent information and plays a significant role in several domains including dishonesty and harmful consumption. We show how interventions aimed at reducing willful inattention may harm information seeking behavior and vice versa. Policies targeting heterogenous populations must therefore tradeoff capturing the attention of information seekers and avoiders.
The future of education in sleep science and medicine in Europe : Report of an ESRS workshop
(2025-10) McNicholas, W. T.; Arnardottir, E. S.; Vyazovskiy, V. V.; Pevernagie, D.; Penzel, T.; Peigneux, P.; Grote, L.; Van Der Werf, Y.; de Jongh, F.; Schmidt, M.; Adamantidis, M.; Sekaran, S.; Biller, A. M.; Knobl, B.; Luppi, P. H.; Bassetti, C. L.; Paunio, T.; Department of Engineering
The European Sleep Research Society (ESRS) is the leading voice for sleep medicine and research in Europe and includes in its mission the objective to promote and develop sleep education. As part of this objective, the Society established a Multidisciplinary Task Force on sleep education, which proposed a workshop on this topic to define the role of ESRS in the future of sleep education in Europe. This includes defining the domains of operation by the ESRS, its most important links and networks, and to recognise areas for development. A concrete goal was to make an action plan with suggestions for eventual Task Forces. Recommendations from the workshop include active collaboration with other Societies and University degree courses in sleep with the objective to position the ESRS as the central focus for sleep education in Europe. Predefined learning objectives and Entrustable Professional Activities were identified as key aspects of future direction. The ESRS Textbook in Sleep Medicine provides a valuable educational resource, and the next edition should expand on the traditional format to include digital material and an integrative platform. The workshop also identified the need to develop a more compact publication to inform non-sleep specialists, university students, and interested members of the public with basic information on sleep and sleep disorders.
Terahertz imaging for breast cancer detection
(2021-10-01) Wang, Lulu; Department of Engineering
Terahertz (THz) imaging has the potential to detect breast tumors during breast-conserving surgery accurately. Over the past decade, many research groups have extensively studied THz imaging and spectroscopy techniques for identifying breast tumors. This manuscript presents the recent development of THz imaging techniques for breast cancer detection. The dielectric properties of breast tissues in the THz range, THz imaging and spectroscopy systems, THz radiation sources, and THz breast imaging studies are discussed. In addition, numerous chemometrics methods applied to improve THz image resolution and data collection processing are summarized. Finally, challenges and future research directions of THz breast imaging are presented.
