This pitching research letter (PRL) applies the systematic 2-page pitch template developed by Faff (2021, 2015) to organise a future PhD research topic regarding the effects of heatwaves on antimicrobial resistance and public health. By adhering to the template, it helps researchers to extract the succinct information required by a research proposa...

The increasing incidence of global colorectal cancer (CRC) cases is overwhelming the CRC healthcare industry. Artificial intelligence (AI) comes to light at this juncture and offers hope for early detection, diagnosis and treatment. In turn, the CRC-associated mortality rate will be reduced in more efficient and cost-effective ways. Nonetheless, de...

Breast cancer is a significant global health challenge that affects both men and women, leading to cause-specific deaths. Current early screening interventions, such as digital mammography (DM), are susceptible to high false-positives and false-negatives. This paper explores the potential of convolutional neural network (CNN), a form of artificial...

The high demand for mental health services and scarce supply of healthcare professionals are increasingly suppressing the mental healthcare industry. The emergence of artificial intelligence shows the potential to be able to transform the landscape of this industry. The application of artificial intelligence has offered a promising hope to bridge t...

The pitch template introduced by Faff (2015; 2021) has become increasingly popular in academic research. Therefore, this paper aims to offer readers new ideas about a more time-efficient and easy-to-understand way of exploring a new research area and topic through a reverse engineering approach. The author believes that a reverse engineering pitch...

Global climate change has contributed to the intensity, frequency, and duration of heatwave events. The association between heatwaves and elderly mortality is highly researched in developed countries. In contrast, heatwave impact on hospital admissions has been insufficiently studied worldwide due to data availability and sensitivity. In our opinio...

While Malaysia is well known as an attractive destination for foreign direct investment (FDI), the country is also becoming a significant source of outward FDI (OFDI) as it has become a net exporter of capital since 2007. The increase in the outward investment may be due to the attractiveness of foreign host countries relative to Malaysia's domesti...
