Volume 2, Issue 2 - 3 Articles

This issue features three important research papers covering mental health in pandemics, digital data security, and food certification transparency. The first study looks at how pandemics affect medical students’ and their parents’ mental health. It found many students showed signs of depression. The second paper explores ways to hide secret information in digital audio files, helping keep data safe. The third study uses blockchain technology to make food certification more trustworthy. It lets people check food certificates using a smartphone app. These papers offer new ideas to solve real-world problems. They could lead to better mental health support, safer digital communication, and more transparent food supply chains.
