A. T. STILL UNIVERSITY OF HEALTH SCIENCES: EDD PROGRAM EMPOWERING ATSU-CGHS STUDENT TO LEAD WITH CONFIDENCE

Currently pursuing her Doctor of Education in Health Professions Education (EdD) through A.T. Still University's College of Graduate Health Studies (ATSU-CGHS), Cheryl Rockwell, MSN, RN, NPD-BC, CCRN, is already seeing powerful results from her studies, both personally and professionally.

"My role encompasses curriculum and learning design, and I have been able to use what I have learned thus far in my practice," Rockwell said. "I'm being called upon in all disciplines to be that expert. This has also enhanced my personal growth as I become more confident in what I have done and can do."

An experienced nurse and nursing professional development senior specialist, Rockwell chose ATSU-CGHS for both the flexibility of its online format and its mission-driven approach to education.

"An online program fits perfectly into my work and life balance," she said.

Focused specifically on health professions education, the EdD program at ATSU-CGHS prepares healthcare educators to teach and inspire the next generation of professionals. Through its context-based and mission-driven curriculum, students are able to make an immediate impact in their current roles and the broader healthcare industry.

For Rockwell, one of the most impactful parts of her EdD journey has been the level of support she has received from ATSU-CGHS faculty and staff.

"This was indeed an unexpected pathway," Rockwell said. "I have received above-and-beyond support and guidance from my advisor and the faculty that I have encountered. It has been a breath of fresh air and has prevented me from losing sight of my goal. The compassion that I have received has been unconventional from past experiences."

With her graduation set for the spring of 2026, Rockwell is ready to achieve her goals of providing high-quality educational programs to enhance professional growth in the nursing workforce and improve patient outcomes and satisfaction in her community.

'When we took a gallery tour as an exercise for this piece, I remember seeing a portrait of an artist and her mother. They were surrounded by nothing but needles. I think that motherhood and relationships with our families hurt people in some way, stay with them and are carried by them', says design student Zofia Alka, adding that Mama, as a structure representing femininity, is supposed to take up space and be unsettling.

AALTO UNIVERSITY: GROUNDBREAKING GRANT MODEL SUPPORTING STUDENT SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS WINS AWARD IN NEW YORK

Launched three years ago, the grant model is being awarded in New York in the student engagement category by the UN's Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) initiative.

The recognition demonstrates that Aalto University has developed a pioneering way to support students' self-directed sustainability initiatives.

"Sustainability Action Booster is a powerful example of what happens when institutions place trust in student leadership. By combining flexible funding with a culture of encouragement, Aalto University has created an ecosystem where students aren't just learning about sustainability-they're living it", says Meredith Storey, Senior Manager, Programmes & Engagement, PRME.

At the core of the Sustainability Action Booster is the integration of sustainable development goals into student life beyond coursework. The grant encourages students to experiment and even fail. Its purpose is to advance Aalto University's core values: creativity, entrepreneurship, a culture of experimentation, and sustainable development.

"It has been observed that taking concrete action and engaging hands-on can help alleviate eco-anxiety, which many may experience today. Our students have shared that participating in grant-funded projects has increased their sense of meaning and community," says Jasmin Jarvinen, Project Manager of the Sustainability Action Booster from Aalto University.

Projects that have received funding include a leftover food distribution network, clothing repair workshops, tools for beekeeping, and a prototype of a floating sauna pier made from recycled wind turbine blades. These funded projects are interdisciplinary and open for all Aalto students. An estimated 70% of participants have been international students.

Juha tekemassa vapaaehtoistyota. Otaniemi was a place where you could get involved in a lot: events, volunteering and student activities. Photo: Juha Malinen How did you end up studying chemical engineering?

- Chemical engineering was always in the background - my father worked in the field, and the name "chemical engineering" was familiar from an early age. In high school, I was particularly interested in chemistry and mathematics, and when it came to choosing a study field, engineering seemed a natural choice. What were your student years like?

- Definitely the best was the community. Otaniemi was a place where you could get involved in a lot: events, volunteering and student activities. For example, I was involved in the Vuorimieskilta and did volunteer work, which really helped me get to know a lot of people. Study and work went hand in hand - both supported each other.

New study estimates that more than a fifth of coastal meadows and sandy beaches may disappear by the turn of the century. Laajalahti nature reserve in Espoo Laajalahti Nature Reserve in Espoo. Photo: Aalto University/Mikko Raskinen

Researchers at Aalto University and the Finnish Environment Institute have for the first time investigated how a rising sea level might impact coastal habitats in Finland. The results are a cause for concern: in the scenario considered most likely to occur, 22-23 percent of coastal meadows and sandy beaches would disappear beneath the waves by the year 2100. Failure to reach emissions reduction targets could cause the sea level to rise more rapidly, causing even greater habitat loss.

'Coastal habitats are crucial for biodiversity. Their destruction would be an irreplaceable loss to the nearly 700 species that inhabit sandy beaches and coastal meadows,' says Senior Researcher Terhi Ryttari from the Finnish Environment Institute.

The new study focuses on the Gulf of Finland coastline, as it is where land uplift is the weakest and thus where sea levels will rise sooner. In the north, land uplift along the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia will slow the impact of sea level rise, yet the area remains susceptible to its effects.

The researchers also investigated whether coastal habitats could shift to areas further inland as the sea rises. They found that this kind of movement is hindered by, among others, the built environment, steep hills, and unsuitable soil.

'Buildings, roads, and other infrastructure often block habitats from expanding to new areas. Even if there is space for them in theory, not all areas can transform into sandy beaches or coastal meadows,' says Elisa Kropsu, a geospatial specialist who has completed a master's thesis on the subject at Aalto University.

Launched in January 2021, the Ocean Decade is a framework for action with the aim of triggering nothing less than a revolution in ocean science. Coordinated by UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC), the Ocean Decade brings together and mobilizes the scientific community, policymakers, businesses, and civil society to generate the knowledge and partnerships needed to support a healthy and resilient ocean.

The vision of the Ocean Decade is "the science we need for the ocean we want." The mission is to catalyze transformative ocean science solutions for sustainable development, connecting people and our ocean, in order to advance the broader UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development.

ALVERNIA UNIVERSITY: ALVERNIA UNIVERSITY:

Alvernia University mourns the loss of Deacon Daniel DeLucca, who served as the university's fourth president from 1990 to 1997. He passed away on June 5, 2025, at the age of 93. President DeLucca ushered in a new era at Alvernia. His tenure saw the construction of the Franco Library, the establishment of a governance system for faculty tenure, and the launch of the university's first website. He also led the creation of the Schuylkill Center, laying the foundation for Alvernia's presence in Schuylkill County, now thriving through the Pottsville CollegeTowne initiative. In 1996, the John Templeton Foundation named Alvernia to its Honor Roll for character-building colleges, citing its service requirement as exemplary - a reflection of DeLucca's commitment to values-based education. Beyond Alvernia, DeLucca's career included leadership roles at Saint Joseph's University and Spring Garden College. He was ordained a permanent deacon in 1986, served the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, and was awarded the Papal Cross: Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice for his service to the Church. His return to Alvernia in 2021 to celebrate his granddaughter's graduation was a powerful moment that symbolized the lasting connection he and his family maintained with the university. Watching her walk across the stage, he described the moment as one of "immense pride and joy."

Deacon DeLucca is survived by his four sons, nine grandchildren, and two great-granddaughters. His Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, June 13, at 10:30 AM at St. Andrew the Apostle Church in Drexel Hill, PA. Viewing will take place Thursday evening and Friday morning at the D'Anjolell Memorial Home of Broomall. In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions to Autism Speaks, Donations Processing Center, P.O. Box 37148, Boone, IA 50037.

His legacy lives on in the generations he taught, mentored, and inspired - including here at Alvernia.

BANGOR UNIVERSITY: HOW 'SUPERGENES' HELP FISH EVOLVE INTO NEW SPECIES

One of biology's big questions is how new species arise and how nature's incredible diversity comes to be.

A new paper published in Science by an international team including Professor George Turner at Bangor University takes us one step closer to the answer.

Cichlid fish from Lake Malawi in East Africa offer a fascinating clue as to why there are so many different kinds of animals and plants on Earth.

In this single lake, over 800 different cichlid species have evolved from a common ancestor in just a fraction of the time that separates humans from chimpanzees. What is even more remarkable is that this explosive diversification happened without physical barriers - all in the same body of water. Some of these fish became large predators, others adapted to eat algae, sift through sand, or feed on plankton. Each species found its own ecological niche.

BELMONT UNIVERSITY: CAROLYN NOHREN FINDS HER PURPOSE IN PHYSICAL THERAPY PROGRAM

For Carolyn Nohren, attending Belmont University was more than just a college choice - it was the fulfillment of a childhood dream nearly a decade in the making.

"I had been coming to Nashville for vacation from the time I was six years old until I moved here," Nohren said. "Each time I visited, I fell more and more in love with the city. When I realized I could go to college here, I knew that somehow, someway, I had to make it happen."

Carolyn NohrenWhen the time came to apply for physical therapy school years later, Belmont stood out as her clear first choice.

"I wanted to fulfill my almost 10-year-long dream more than I had wanted anything in my life," she shared. That dream became reality when she was accepted into Belmont's Doctor of Physical Therapy program, where she's now on track to graduate in 2026.

Fungi have been around for many millions of years, with the incremental process of evolution honing and improving their survival skills through the millennia.

Now, Binghamton University researchers are studying the cell structure of fungi to learn how it determines their mechanical properties and what science can learn from that to create better materials.

In a paper recently published in the journal Advanced Engineering Materials, a team from Binghamton and the University of California - Merced looked at the microscopic filaments known as hypha that form a network-like structure in mushrooms and other fungi. By twisting around each other and branching within the larger structure, the hyphal filaments control how the fungi react to various mechanical stresses.

A FAMILY STORY: STUDENT'S PATH AT BINGHAMTON INSPIRED BY PARENTS' IMMIGRANT JOURNEY

Imagine fleeing your home in your early 20s. You have little to no money in your pocket. From your native Kosovo, you travel to Switzerland, Germany and finally, the U.S., where you set the stage for a new chapter of your life.

Fast-forward more than 20 years: your family lives comfortably, operating a pizzeria and Italian restaurant in the Bronx, N.Y., area.

This is a snapshot of the story Zenun Hoti grew up hearing. His parents fled the Serbian-Albanian conflict in 1999 and began anew in a country where, to this day, English remains their second language. Inspired by their journey, Hoti studied human development at the College of Community and Public Affairs and graduated with his Master's of Public Administration in December 2024.

"I've always wanted to help out from an educational and eye-opening perspective, and the opportunities Binghamton presented me with have allowed me to accomplish that," Hoti says. "I enjoy the versatility that goes with human development because it's so interdisciplinary - incorporating politics, sociology, anthropology, even psychology. You get to immerse yourself in it, not just through the educational experience, but by applying what you've learned in your travels, wherever they take you."

BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF ILLINOIS STATE UNIVERSITY: DR. RIAZ DELIVERS TWO LECTURES ON BANGLADESH CONSTITUTION

Distinguished Professor Ali Riaz has delivered two lectures on the Bangladesh Constitution and constitutional reforms proposals in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Dr. Riaz was the chief speaker at the Danish Constitution Day celebration by the Embassy of Denmark June 4 in Bangladesh. Riaz highlighted various aspects of the current Bangladesh Constitution and how the constitutional provisions facilitated the rise of an autocratic regime between 2009 and 2024. He noted that the current Constitution has concentrated power in the hands of the prime minister and lacks checks and balances and judicial independence.

As the interim government is trying to reform political institutions and the Constitution, a commission headed by Riaz submitted extensive reform proposals. These are being discussed with the political parties by the National Consensus Commission headed by the chief advisor of the interim government, Nobel laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus, and Riaz is serving as the vice chair. The discussion focuses on what measures are acceptable and how to implement these recommendations.

On May 28, Riaz delivered a lecture at the Judicial Administration Training Institute (JATI), the national institute that provides training to judges, judicial magistrates, government pleaders, public prosecutors, and court staff. Riaz's speech to the trainees highlighted the provisions of judicial independence and how the absence of robust provisions within the current constitution has enabled the executive branch to control the judiciary. He highlighted the recommendations of the Constitution Reform Commission and the Judiciary Reform Commission, especially the establishment of an independent secretariat under the Supreme Court with complete fiscal autonomy.

BOISE STATE UNIVERSITY: FIVE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT WILDLAND FIRE MANAGEMENT

The National Interagency Fire Center meteorologists are predicting a severe fire season from early June until at least September. As the western U.S. faces the 2025 wildfire season, learning how fires are managed on wildlands has never been more important.

Kendra Fallon, a geoscience doctoral candidate who has been in fire management positions for over 15 years starting as a primary firefighter, shares her insight. Her boots-on-the-ground experience fueled her decision to return to academia and help bridge the two worlds of professional fire management with science and higher education. A firefighter in the wilderness Kendra Fallon in 2012 monitoring fire effects outside of Lassen Volcanic National Park. Photo provided by Kendra Fallon.

Fallon's research interest is on applied fire and fuels management-how research tools like remote sensing and machine learning can be translated and leveraged to solve complex land management problems in an effort to move our landscapes towards a more resilient future. 1. Mini History lesson: The 1910 "Big Blowup", the "10 a.m. Policy" and modern fire management

In 1910, a massive wildfire complex-started by excessive drought, lightning strikes and man-made ignition sources-burned 3 million acres across Idaho, Montana, Washington and British Columbia. The Great Fire of 1910, also known as "The Big Blowup" and the "Big Burn," is possibly the largest wildfire in modern American history (the 1825 Miramichi Fire was also approximately 3 million acres, though mostly in Canada with a crossover into Maine).

Twenty-five years later, the Forest Service established the "10 a.m. policy." This policy decreed that "every fire should be suppressed by 10 a.m. the day following its initial report," according to the Forest History Society. This policy lasted until the early 1970s, until academic research and management outcomes by rebellious "light burners" (managers that continued to practice prescribed burning) demonstrated that this heavy-handed suppression was often ecologically mismatched.

Chad Coffman, assistant professor of entrepreneurship in the Department of Management, is Boise State's instructor of record for Sandbox.

"I was initially drawn to Sandbox by the remarkable success experienced by some of the participating teams. But I was sold on Sandbox once I fully understood the impact of this style of experiential learning on student educational outcomes," he said. "The students that participate in this program, who don't found life changing startups, are going to be exceptionally well-prepared to work in a tech industry that is evolving faster than ever before due to developments in artificial intelligence."

The stats tell the same story. Collectively, Sandbox companies are valued at $149 million, with six ventures accepted into Y Combinator, the world's most prestigious startup accelerator. Some notable venture-backed companies that found their start in Sandbox include Buster, Cheers, Devote, Lovage, Mindsmith, Relay, Stratus, Swipe and Zaymo. Even Sandbox participants who decide not to continue with their startups have an average 25% higher starting salary compared to non-Sandbox graduates. Alumni have been hired by companies such as Leland, Figma, Nike, Lucid, Google and NVIDIA.

Sustainability has always been important to Bryn Mawr, and it found in President Wendy Cadge a like-minded collaborator.

"I am committed to accelerating the College's sustainability work over the next five years," Cadge said in her 2024 inaugural address. "To help catalyze Bryn Mawr's work to date, we will be increasing resources to support faculty, staff, and students working on these issues and create a new position in 2025 that is 100 percent focused on sustainability at the College and in our local communities."

Enacting sustainable changes that truly move the needle can take time. The College's goal of attaining carbon neutrality by 2035 has been years in the making, through changes both big and small, and has involved collaboration between students, faculty, and staff on changing lightbulbs, planting trees, and more.

"The time is now," said Chief of Staff Shannon Kearns, who helped lead the search for the College's new director of sustainability and environmental action. "It's something we have to address, especially given our mission around creating leaders of the future."

BRYN MAWR COLLEGE: FIGHTING FOR THE FUTURE

In 2024, the planet was the warmest it has ever been in the 175 years of observational records, according to the World Meteorological Organization.

Calls from the United Nations and others to combat climate change are more urgent than ever.

Yet the hurdles are significant at a time when skeptics are pushing back, motives are questioned, and research projects are under threat.

On the forefront of that fight are Bryn Mawr College alumnae/i: a renewable natural gas advocate, a biking safety proponent, an environmental law attorney, a paleoclimatologist, and a net-zero government strategist. Here are their stories of persistence. JOANNA DEHAVEN UNDERWOOD '62 Joanna Underwood

Joanna DeHaven Underwood '62, founder and trustee of the New York City-based Energy Vision, has always been interested in finding solutions to environmental problems and getting them adopted.

She traces her success to her days at Bryn Mawr as a European history major. "The fact is you learn how to study things," she says. "Bryn Mawr gave me confidence in my abilities. They gave women the right to say, 'You can lead.'"

Since the nonprofit's start in 2007, Energy Vision has focused on advancing new technologies. One of the most promising, Underwood says, is the use of anaerobic digesters to capture methane released from decomposing organic food and animal waste. The result is a renewable natural gas (RNG) source that could greatly reduce the country's reliance on oil, particularly carbon-intensive diesel fuel.

Despite our overcast climate, Northeast Ohioans still need to protect themselves from sun's harmful rays

Sunshine and vitamin D are important to our physical and mental health, especially in Northeast Ohio, where gray skies dominate.

Exposure to the sun lowers blood pressure, improves sleep quality, reduces stress and anxiety and even helps battle depression.

But over exposure-and failing to protect your skin-can have devastating results. Even in Northeast Ohio, where overcast skies are prevalent about seven months of the year, according to Weather Spark.

Despite the gray, you may still be at risk from the sun's damaging rays. Harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation can still pass through clouds, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.

In particular, the risk is skin cancer-the most common type of cancer in the United States, with more than 5.4 million cases diagnosed each year, according to the American Cancer Society. But it's also among the most preventable forms of the disease-which is why wearing sun protection throughout the year is essential.

Sameera Chiruvolu recently capped off her first year as an undergraduate student at Case Western Reserve University by presenting on her research findings during the spring Intersections symposium.

While early research opportunities are a hallmark of the undergraduate experience at CWRU, Chiruvolu's studies began as a high school student in Dallas. Working alongside mentors at Baylor University Medical Center, Chiruvolu studied the effects of probiotics on very preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit.

Upon matriculating to CWRU in fall 2024, Chiruvolu continued her work from afar, ultimately contributing to the discovery that introducing "good bacteria" to the gut of preterm infants holds potential to prevent serious infections. Chiruvolu recently had the opportunity to present her findings at a meeting of the Pediatric Academic Societies.

Millions of tons of thermosets-hard plastics-are produced each year and used to manufacture everything from kitchenware to aircraft panels. Their strength, insulative qualities, and heat and chemical resistance make these materials ideal for a wide range of applications.

Over time, however, they degrade into microplastics-tiny plastic particles that pollute the environment, harm wildlife, and may pose risks to human health by carrying toxic chemicals and entering the food chain.

Additionally, the same properties that make thermosets desirable also make them impossible to recycle by traditional methods. Tom (CIT '70) and Nancy Seitz

Ica Manas-Zloczower is working to change that.

As the inaugural recipient of the Thomas W. and Nancy P. Seitz Professorship of Advanced Materials and Energy, established at Case Western Reserve University in 2012, Manas-Zloczower has made significant advances in macromolecular science and engineering.

CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY: PANCREATIC CANCER VACCINES ELIMINATE DISEASE IN PRECLINICAL STUDIES

Case Western Reserve University researchers combat deadly cancer with therapeutic vaccines Zheng-Rong Lu

Pancreatic cancer has a five-year survival rate of just 13%, making it the deadliest cancer, according to the American Cancer Society. It typically causes no symptoms until it has already metastasized. Surgery, radiation and chemotherapy can extend survival, but rarely provide a cure.

Now, researchers at Case Western Reserve University and Cleveland Clinic are developing vaccines targeting pancreatic cancer that could eliminate the disease, leaving a patient cancer-free. So far, the vaccines have achieved dramatic results in studies with preclinical models.

Biomedical engineer Zheng-Rong (ZR) Lu has been elated by the response in preclinical models of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the most common form of the disease.

The long dormant period between emergences means these cicadas have only been available for study 12 times since Centre College was founded in 1819.

Innovation grand prize and first prize (Information Technology): Next Generation Data Centre Interconnects with Integrated Neuromorphic Photonic Processor

Large-scale artificial intelligence (AI) training requires uniformly ultra-low latency and energy-efficient data interconnects to let massive graphics processing units (GPUs) function as a unified system. However, current technologies often struggle with delays and high energy use, limiting AI development. Under the supervision of Professor Huang Chaoran from the Department of Electronic Engineering, a project team comprising Wang Benshan, Xiao Qiarong, Xu Tengji, Fan Li and Liu Shaojie presented a new type of data connection that uses light instead of electricity to transmit information. This system is the first in the world to operate entirely with light, eliminating the need for traditional electronic parts that usually slow things down. Their invention is over 10,000 times faster and uses 1,000 times less energy than current methods. It can also send data over much longer distances-up to 80 km-compared to just 2 km with existing technology. This means it could connect millions of GPUs with near-zero latency, which reducing hardware costs and energy consumption, providing comprehensive and robust support for future AI development.

Jill Gemmill, associate vice president for Research Computing and Data at Clemson University, was named vice chair for the Coalition for Academic Scientific Computation (CASC). Brian Voss, vice president and chief information officer, praised Gemmill's efforts in this high performance computing organization.

"Having Jill representing Clemson in this important organization of high performance computation professionals acknowledges both the respect she has as a leader in the community and Clemson's stature as a premier research University," Voss said. "We are delighted for her to make impactful contributions to CASC and beyond."

CASC is a national organization dedicated to promoting academic high performance computing in support of scientific research and discovery. In addition to Clemson, other CASC member institutions include Cornell, Columbia, Dartmouth, Princeton, the University of Texas at Austin, Stanford, Notre Dame and more.

In her new role, Gemmill will help shape CASC's strategic direction, advocating for the policies and investments necessary to advance scientific computation across academic institutions nationwide. This recognition underscores both her leadership and Clemson's commitment to driving innovation in research computing and data.

For Gemmill, this new role is an honor as she continues to collaborate with institutional peers and advocate for HPC support, especially as new innovations require HPC resources.

"Artificial intelligence (AI) is the most recent innovation that depends on HPC systems and people skilled in operating HPC. HPC at academic institutions is essential for materials science, life science, and many other knowledge domains, including history. Training the HPC workforce is so relevant to industry and today's jobs market," Gemmill said. "CASC advocates to our users, institutions and funding agencies about the essential role of HPC at academic institutions. It is a tremendous privilege to step into this leadership role."

CLEMSON UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION INC.CREATIVE INQUIRY + UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH CITED IN DUKE UNIVERSITY CASE STUDY ON PROJECT-BASED LEARNING

Clemson University's Creative Inquiry + Undergraduate Research program was cited as one of 17 model programs across the country by Duke University in its open access publication "Collaborative Project-Based Learning in Higher Education: Case Studies."

The report serves as a resource for faculty, staff and administrators in higher education to learn about how to implement project-based learning programs and incorporate such programs into their curricula. The report was produced as a complement to a symposium produced by the BASS Connections Program at Duke University.

Clemson's program was highlighted in the category of reaching more than 750 students per year. Other universities included in that category include Duke, Georgia Tech, Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Ball State University. Creative Inquiry impacted more undergraduate students annually than did any other program in the report.

"Creative Inquiry was invited to participate in the conference and submit a case study on the basis of its key features, including collaborative projects, multidisciplinary approach, and student impact. The report highlights and advertises the strengths of the Creative Inquiry Program at Clemson to the wider academic community," said Barbara Speziale, director of Creative Inquiry + Undergraduate Research and associate director of the Watt Family Innovation Center.

CLEMSON PHYSICISTS ARE PART OF MISSION TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE AURORAS ATMOSPHERIC IMPACT

With dancing reds and greens coloring the sky, the northern lights can put on quite a stunning show.

But in the skies above central and northern Alaska in late March, the northern lights were particularly AWESOME thanks to a research project to study how the aurora affects the upper atmosphere.

As a part of the AWESOME (Auroral Waves Excited by Substorm Onset Magnetic Events) project, researchers, including two Clemson University physicists, fired three sounding rockets into the sky during an auroral substorm. Gerald Lehmacher

The first two rocket payloads released tracers that were widely visible and added blue and white to the green and red auroral display. Vapor tracers from the third rocket, launched four nights later, looked like a bright white ring due to a faulty payload valve.

The goal of the project, led by the University of Alaska Fairbanks, is to learn more about how energy from an auroral substorm affects the usually stable upper atmosphere. The project also includes NASA, Clemson, the University of Michigan, Cornell University, Penn State University, and two nonprofit science organizations, SRI International and The Aerospace Corp.

Dear members of the Columbia community,

As summer unfolds in earnest, I'd like to offer a brief update about our status with the federal government and share what's on my mind as we reengage more deeply in those discussions. It's no exaggeration to say that everyone in our community has been affected by the government's actions and the corresponding public scrutiny. But the challenges for our research mission, and our entire institution, are becoming increasingly acute.

Columbia's top scientists are facing the decimation of decades of research. Graduate students, postdocs, mid-career researchers, and established, celebrated scientists, have all had their breakthroughs lauded by the world one minute and defunded the next.

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY: FACULTY LEVERAGE MACHINE LEARNING FOR EARLY DETECTION OF MENTAL ILLNESS

Diagnosing serious mental illness early is one of psychiatry's hardest problems. Symptoms can be subtle, overlapping, and hard to interpret in real time. But what if AI could help clinicians distinguish between early psychosis and schizophrenia-before a crisis occurs? By detecting mental health disorders like schizophrenia early, timely interventions could significantly improve patient outcomes.

At Columbia University, Steven A. Kushner, MD, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry and co-director of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) Center for Precision Psychiatry & Mental Health at Columbia, and Shalmali Joshi, PhD, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Informatics and a member of the Data Science Institute and its Health Analytics Center, are leading research to bring this vision closer to fruition. They are both faculty at the Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons.

Their study employs machine learning techniques to analyze extensive Medicaid administrative claims data, aiming to identify patterns that could predict which individuals exhibiting early signs of psychosis may progress to develop schizophrenia. This project is funded by the National Institute of Mental Health's Clinical Outcome Prediction of Psychosis from Electronic Health Records (COPPER) grant.​

As the administration of President Donald Trump dismantles reforms enacted under Joe Biden, workers and management at a Fort Valley, Georgia, school bus plant are thriving because of the same policies.

On Trump's first day in office, he signed an executive order that would freeze future spending under two Biden-era laws: The Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which authorized funding of more than $2 trillion. Under Biden, those grants often went to companies that supported worker unions, according to the Center for American Progress.

Several workers at Blue Bird Corp., a school bus manufacturer with 1,500 union employees at its plant in Fort Valley, said that support transformed their workplace. They pointed to better job conditions under a union contract and said that the company has thrived under a grant and contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars thanks to federal support for electric buses.

Observers, including former acting Secretary of Labor Julie Su, said that Trump's actions could mean an abrupt end to successful government programs that have already improved the lives of workers across the country and added to companies' bottom lines.

CORNELL UNIVERSITY: COMPASSIONATE HOSPITALITY LEADERS GATHER FOR A 100-YEAR TRADITION AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY

One hundred years ago, a group of visionary students at The Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration, Cornell University, created a gathering that would bridge the academic and professional worlds of hospitality. Today, Hotel Ezra Cornell-known affectionately as HEC-has become one of the most unique and enduring student-led conferences in the world.

When I was a student there from 1978 to 1982, I used to say that "I majored in HEC." I loved the challenge of running a themed event for alums that came from my imagination and was executed with a team of my fellow students. One year, it was an "Around the World in 80 Days Brunch." I spent hours in the kitchen creating a hot air balloon for the buffet out of bread and sugar. During my Junior year, I worked with my friends to design and execute an extravaganza, "Cast Party," where students and alumni guests could drink, dance, and be merry together in Barton Hall, Cornell's athletic center, which we transformed into a fancy ballroom.

In its centennial year, the HECentennial not only honored a rich legacy but also highlighted the enduring impact of hospitality leadership in building community, cultivating empathy, and transforming lives. The milestone event brought together students, alums, faculty, and industry professionals in a celebration that underscored a central truth: hospitality is about relationships, not transactions, and at the core of those relationships is compassion.

CURTIN UNIVERSITY: WHAT JUDY ATE: UNVEILING A SAUROPOD DINOSAUR'S LAST MEAL FOR THE FIRST TIME

A Curtin-led research team has found the world's first reported stomach contents of a sauropod dinosaur, learning more about the feeding habits of one of the largest terrestrial animals of all time.

Published today in Current Biology, the research team analysed the fossilised stomach contents of the 95-million-year-old sauropod - a Diamantinasaurus matildae specimen nicknamed Judy - discovered on a property near Winton and excavated in 2017 by staff and citizen scientists at the Australian Age of Dinosaurs Museum of Natural History.

Within Judy's stomach contents, the research team found pinnules and bracts from tall conifer trees, along with leaves and fruiting bodies from smaller seed ferns and flowering plants.

Lead researcher Dr Stephen Poropat, Deputy Director of Curtin's Western Australian Organic and Isotope Geochemistry Centre (WA-OIGC) in the School of Earth and Planetary Sciences, said the research findings revealed that sauropods ate a variety of plants from various heights above the ground, and that this contributed to their long-term success.

"Ever since the late 19th century, palaeontologists have firmly regarded sauropods as herbivores. However, the specific plants that they ate, and the height above ground at which they fed, have remained unknown - until now," Dr Poropat said.

"The stomach contents we found belonged to a 12 metre-long, subadult sauropod that would have still been growing at its time of death. Our findings show that at least some species of subadult sauropods were able to feed at a variety of heights above ground and easily adapt to the various climatic, environmental, and vegetation changes throughout the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: AROUND THE WORLD AND BACK

Like many kids growing up in Nova Scotia, Liam Oko was into hockey. But his mom was also active in community theater at the Bauer Theater in Antigonish. After hockey practice, Liam would sneak over and watch her rehearsals from the theatre's balcony.

One summer, Liam decided he didn't want to play hockey anymore and started exploring acting.

"Festival Antigonish had a young actor's program where they brought in equity professionals and did kid shows," says Liam. "By the end of the summer, I was completely hooked."

Liam joined Neptune Theatre's Young Company and went to the Stratford Shakespeare School. When his family moved to the Cayman Islands, he landed leading roles that boosted his confidence.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: FROM COMBAT BOOTS TO CROP SCIENCE

After a 13-year career in the Canadian Armed Forces including time spent teaching explosive theory to military engineers, Jeff Robinson retired as a sergeant and is now fighting climate change through sustainable agriculture.

With a recently completed degree in Plant Science and a master's underway, his journey from soldier to scientist reflects a powerful drive to serve, protect and grow.

Jeff isn't sure he will ever really understand why he joined the military but attributes it to the fact he missed the bus to school during the events of 9/11 and watched it unfold on live news.

"I genuinely don't know, but I just have a deep-seated desire and need to help people," he explains.

That desire now extends to climate change with an aspiration to peek behind the curtain and truly understand how plants function.

"With climate change becoming an increasingly urgent issue, I wanted to be on the 'right side of history', contributing to sustainable, science-based agricultural practices," he says.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: A NEW BEGINNING ON THE FARM

From the bright lights of the big city to the wide-open fields of a small town, Jacqueline Fogel traveled nearly 2,000 kilometres in search of the right path and found a place that instantly felt like home.

"Transferring to a new program, to a new school and to a new province, there was definitely a lot of anxiety but as soon as I arrived on campus, it felt like home," says Jacqueline, a bio veterinary science grad from Toronto.

Jacqueline began her undergraduate journey closer to home studying general and chemical engineering at Queen's University. Although engineering seemed like a natural choice at the time - especially after spending high school immersed in robotics - Jacqueline always knew she wanted to work with animals having been an employee for the Toronto Zoo for four summers.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: A SPARKED INTEREST IN TRANSIT PLANNING

Johnny Kurelek didn't set out to become a planner-but a first-year elective at Dalhousie University changed everything. Now graduating from the Bachelor of Community Design (BCD) program, Johnny reflects on his unexpected path into planning, the mentors who shaped his experience, and the projects that fueled his passion for transportation and community engagement. In this Q&A, he shares the highlights, challenges, and lessons learned during his time at Dal, along with advice for future students and a glimpse into what's next. What brought you to Dalhousie, and how did you discover your passion for planning? I grew up in Ottawa and originally came to Dal to pursue a commerce degree. At the time, I didn't even know planning was something you could study at university. But in my first year, I took a few planning electives and quickly fell in love with the subject. One course in particular-Jason Fox's PLAN 1002, an urban design class-really stood out. It was so engaging that I immediately applied to transfer into the bachelor of community design program. I also have to thank Kate Thompson, the undergraduate coordinator, who was incredibly helpful during that transition.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: PLANNING WITH PURPOSE

Katie Brousseau's path to planning began with a passion for justice and community well-being. Born and raised in Timberlea, N.S., she earned her Bachelor of Social Work from Dalhousie in 2017 and went on to work in housing and homelessness in both Nova Scotia and British Columbia.

From frontline roles in emergency shelters to managing supportive housing for individuals living with HIV, she witnessed the impact of housing policy on the most vulnerable members of society. But it was her time as a Community Legal Worker with Dalhousie Legal Aid Service - representing tenants and providing public legal education on housing rights - that had the most significant impact on her commitment to housing policy and systems change.

"Those experiences positioned me to witness firsthand how inadequate housing policy impacts people's lives," she says. "I found myself increasingly drawn to the systems-level questions - why housing was so hard to access, and how the structures informing it could be shaped to create more equitable outcomes."

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: MAKING SENSE OF IDENTITY

When Uihyeok Jung and his family immigrated from South Korea to Canada in 2012, they settled in the small town of Trenton in northern Nova Scotia. The six years they spent there before moving to Spryfield near Halifax provided a crash course in adapting to a new culture.

"As my siblings and I were among the first Korean kids to attend the local schools in Trenton, we were pretty much forced to speak and adapt to English as quickly as possible," says Jung (the name he goes by at Dal), who admits he didn't take his English lessons seriously when living in Korea.

He found ways to break through the language barriers.

"This was the peak of Korean culture in the West as things like Gangnam Style had just come out, so many students were interested in me and my culture!" he says. The popularity of Xbox gaming consoles offered another point of communication with friends and helped him to learn colloquial English.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY: GRAD PROFILE: A POLITICAL AWAKENING ABROAD

Meaghan De Adder graduates this spring with a Combined Honours in Political Science and International Development Studies (IDS) - a dual degree she didn't expect to pursue when she first began university.

An interest in worldly affairs drew her to IDS, but she couldn't fight the desire to study politics, too - something that was sparked at a young age. Meaghan's father, Michael De Adder, is an award-winning political cartoonist, and though she didn't often talk politics with him, she recalls growing up with the news always on and her dad's cartoons lying around.

As a kid, she didn't always understand the political commentary or the jokes in her dad's drawings, but she'd recognize symbols or depictions of people that were talked about in the news.

"I can't deny that he's probably the reason I started getting interested in politics," she says. "If I didn't grow up surrounded by it, I might not have been as keen on doing it as a major."

ETH ZURICH HOW TRACE ELEMENTS ARE RECYCLED IN THE DEEP SEA

The oceans are full of living things, with microscopic algae (phytoplankton) at the base of the marine food chain. These organisms make a living in the same way as land plants, using the sunlight that penetrates the upper 100 meters or so of the ocean as the energy source by which they synthesise organic matter for their cells. Every year, these tiny algae make about as much organic carbon as land plants. Like land plants, they obtain the building blocks of their cells from the surrounding environment - not a soil in this case, but the seawater solution they live in.

But unlike the land ecosystem, when these algae die, they fall into the dark deep ocean, where their dead cells decay due to the action of bacteria. Therefore, the elements they need to grow are lost from the part of the ocean in which they live, and go back into seawater solution in the deep ocean.

The researchers have just published their findings in the journal, Science.

Shortly after becoming a first-time father in 2011, James Rilling holds his son, Toby, as his own father, Richard, stands behind him. One of the best Father's Day gifts James Rilling ever received came from his son, Toby, when he was around six years old.

"Inside, he had drawn pictures. One page had a hamburger. Another one, a football. It was interesting to see what I like from his perspective. It's super cute. I still have it."

Toby, now 14, and daughter Mia, 8, help inspire Rilling's pioneering research on dads.

The academy, part of Emory's Center for Public Scholarship and Engagement, is designed to help faculty communicate complex academic ideas with the public.

"As a psychologist, I love and understand the power of stories and narrative," says Carter, the center's founding director and Charles Howard Candler Professor of Psychology at Oxford College. "To see faculty - physicians, sociologists, classics professors - thinking about how to describe their life's work in a way that can be understood by their communities, that was inspiring to me."

ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM: KIDSRIGHTS INDEX 2025 SOUNDS THE ALARM ON MENTAL HEALTH AND DIGITAL HARM

On Wednesday 11 June, the Netherlands-based KidsRights Foundation unveiled the 13th edition of the KidsRights Index, the world's only annual global ranking that measures how nations respect and realise children's rights. The 2025 edition paints a sobering picture of a growing mental health emergency among youth, calling for urgent coordinated global action. A generation in distress

Produced in cooperation with Erasmus School of Economics and the International Institute of Social Studies (ISS) of Erasmus University Rotterdam, the KidsRights Index 2025 reveals a devastating truth: the world is in the grip of a worsening mental health crisis among its youngest generation.

More than 14 percent of children and adolescents aged 10-19 are experiencing mental health issues. Yet these figures may only scratch the surface. Due to stigma and systemic underreporting, the real scope is feared to be much greater.

Suicide has become the third leading cause of death among youth aged 15 to 29, a staggering statistic underscoring just how deep the crisis runs. The digital dilemma

A major concern raised in the report is the link between social media use and deteriorating mental health. From 2018 to 2022, problematic social media use among adolescents rose dramatically (from 7% to 11%) in 44 countries across Europe, Central Asia, and Canada.

This trend is not without consequence. A surge in suicide attempts among youth has been linked directly to excessive internet and social media use, with studies across Turkiye, Austria, Korea, and Australia pointing to a dangerous correlation. In Europe, 13% of 13-year-olds are already exhibiting signs of problematic social media behavior.

ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM: JORIS KRIJGER PUBLISHES BOOK: OUR ARTIFICIAL FUTURE

Artificial intelligence is penetrating ever deeper into every facet of our lives. It is the technological revolution of this century and is already reshaping the foundations of our society. But are we truly prepared for the profound societal consequences this brings? And does "more AI" automatically lead to progress?

In Our Artificial Future: What We Want from AI (and What AI Wants from Us), AI ethicist Joris Krijger explores the broader narrative behind the rapid rise of artificial intelligence. The focus is not on the technical side-programming smart systems-but on the ethical questions: How do we (re)program our society in a world where AI plays an increasingly dominant role?

In a recent radio interview with Dutch public broadcaster NPO, Krijger stated: "The assumption is often that AI is simply a useful tool, but there are all kinds of commercial interests determining how the technology is deployed, who benefits from it, and who pays the price. AI sets society on a particular path. If we only think in terms of efficiency and progress, it creates pressure on other values like solidarity, justice, and fairness. We must carefully consider where we embrace AI's efficiency and where we need to prioritize other values to maintain a humane society."

Krijger doesn't just examine the problems AI might solve but also what it doesn't solve-and the new dilemmas and risks it introduces. In doing so, he sketches a vision of our future society and poses the crucial question: Is this the artificial future we truly want?

ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM: RENTAL AGREEMENT UNDER SCRUTINY: WHEN IS A RENT INCREASE UNFAIR?

The cumulative effect of rent increase clauses

A key point of contention was whether the rent increase clause should be viewed as a single provision or as two separate provisions that can each be individually assessed for fairness. In the case considered by the Supreme Court, the rent increase clause comprised two parts: indexation (adjustment for inflation) and an additional surcharge (e.g. 3%). The Supreme Court ruled that these two elements could be assessed separately. This makes it possible to annul only the surcharge clause if found unfair, while the annual inflation-based increase remains valid. However, Schaub points out that the Court of Justice of the EU has clearly stated that the fairness assessment must consider all clauses' combined effects. This means one must not only examine each clause in isolation but also consider what the provisions mean collectively for the tenant. She explains: "The fairness assessment must include the cumulative effect of all terms in the agreement."

What happens when algorithms no longer just support, but start making decisions within police work? The rapid rise of AI and data-driven policing demands clear frameworks and direction. That's why the Scientific Advisory Board of the Dutch Police issued a strong report: Navigating No-Man's Land (Navigeren in niemandsland

Opens external), outlining seven challenges and recommendations for the responsible use of AI in police practice.

"Data-driven work and the integration of AI are becoming increasingly central to policing," says Marc Schuilenburg, Professor of Digital Surveillance at Erasmus School of Law and chair of the working group behind the report. "We're seeing algorithms not just assisting police work, but making decisions. For example, police are using automated analyses of massive data sets, and AI tools can independently navigate through large databases. This doesn't just change police work - it affects the entire police organization, from legal frameworks and AI literacy to political issues like digital sovereignty."

A new study by Flinders University shows that while coaches are often the focus of mental health efforts in sport, real and sustainable change relies on recognising the role of all club stakeholders including parents, committee members, trainers and volunteers.

"Our findings suggest that mental health initiatives in youth sporting clubs need to go beyond coaches to embrace a 'whole-club' approach," says lead author, registered psychologist and PhD student, Kate Rasheed.

"Sporting clubs are made up of so many moving parts and if we want to truly support young people, we need to consider the club as a whole, and not just rely on coaches or one passionate individual."

Florida International University kicked off its 10th annual disaster field exercise today, marking a decade of preparing hundreds of students for careers in disaster management.

To bring the exercise to life, emergency response agencies, health providers, and national defense and security organizations teamed up with FIU's AIDP, part of the Robert Stempel College of Public Health & Social Work, to offer equipment and resources - such as helicopters and mobile command units - to simulate a real-life disaster response operation. More than 250 volunteers, from FIU and participating agencies, are roleplaying as response coordinators and support staff.

FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY: FSU MEDICAL EXPERT AVAILABLE FOR INSIGHT ON FLORIDAS CARDIAC EMERGENCIES BILL

A new law is putting a focus on cardiac emergency response in Florida school districts.

Known as the Cardiac Emergencies Bill, HB 1607

will go into effect on July 1, 2025. It requires all Florida schools to have automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to respond to cardiac emergencies and for school district employees to have basic training in first aid, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

According to the American Heart Association, approximately 70% of children survive cardiac arrest in schools with AEDs. The survival rate is seven times greater than the 10% of people who survive cardiac arrest outside of a hospital in the United States each year.

Dr. Stephen Chelko, a Florida State University Assistant Professor of Biomedical Sciences at the College of Medicine, is an expert in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy - a familial heart disease characterized by cardiac dysfunction, arrhythmias and myocardial fibrosis. It is often referred to as "sudden cardiac death," occurring more often in young people.

His related areas of expertise include hypertension, heart failure, cardiovascular physiology, molecular cardiology and electrocardiography.

Dr. Chelko believes HB 1607 is a critical bill that equips schools to handle sudden cardiac events that are reliant on fast-acting safety procedures.

"I have never been prouder of my state," he said. "Sudden cardiac death is not an easy topic to discuss, particularly when it concerns our children. Yet, children are still susceptible to sudden cardiac events, and thus requiring schools to install these life-saving devices was a welcomed revision to HB 1607."

Celebrated in June, Men's Health Month encourages fathers to exemplify better living and seek preventative care.

The month raises awareness for more men to prioritize their overall health- both physically and mentally. According to the Indiana University School of Medicine

, most men tend to neglect the importance of their health. Only 60 percent go to the doctor for a yearly, routine checkup, and 40 percent won't go until something is seriously wrong.

Men are recommended to receive a physical at least once a year. For physical activity, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services advises at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity per week.

Men's mental health has become a greater point of emphasis in recent years. Generally speaking, males experience anxiety or depression daily but are not comfortable confiding in others. According to a report

by the American Psychological Association, 31 percent of men experience depression at some point in their lives, and nine percent report daily feelings of depression or anxiety. However, only 25 percent seek assistance from a mental health professional.

From a family dynamic, men's health can impact everyone around them.

FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY: FSU BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES $2.97 BILLION OPERATING BUDGET

The Florida State University Board of Trustees on Thursday approved a $2.97 billion operating budget for the 2025-2026 fiscal year, down 1% from last year's unprecedented $3 billion budget. With lawmakers still working to finalize the state's budget, which is expected to pass next week, the university's budget does not yet include changes related to FY 2025-2026 state appropriation levels. Related budget amendments will be incorporated once Gov. Ron DeSantis signs the state's budget.

Florida State has not raised tuition for the past 12 years, instead relying on the generous support of the Florida Legislature to remain one of the nation's most affordable and highest-quality institutions. Notably, 85.2% of full-time undergraduates received some form of non-loan student financial aid during the 2023-2024 academic year.

Though the budget does not reflect any new state funding for 2025-2026, it demonstrates FSU's commitment to retain outstanding faculty, staff, and graduate students, invest in student financial aid packages, and prioritize research activity amid continuing developments in the federal funding model. The expansion of FSU Health also remains a focus with the goal of enhancing health outcomes in North Florida and beyond.

The 2025-2026 Annual Operating Budget includes $486 million for capital projects. The capital outlay budget includes allocations for the FSU Academic Health Center in Tallahassee, the new Football Operations Facility, Doak Campbell Stadium, and the College of Business' Legacy Hall.

The university's operating budget injects an estimated $14.7 billion into the local and state economies annually, according to the FSU Center for Economic Forecasting and Analysis. That estimate includes about $4.8 billion in direct revenue or sales and over $197 million in spending by non-resident students, as well as $8.77 billion in lifetime earnings by recent FSU graduates, based on the center's latest Florida State University System report.

FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY: FSUS SCHOOL OF DANCE PRESERVES LEGACY OF MODERN DANCE PIONEERS THROUGH COSTUME COLLECTION

Florida State University's School of Dance is home to a rare collection of costumes and ephemera that serves as a valuable resource for FSU students and faculty.

The collection, which includes costumes dating back to the early 1900s, offers a tangible link to the evolution of modern dance in America while also offering national researchers access to valuable dance resources.

"Dance is such an ephemeral art form, but when you can actually touch and see the costumes that were used in the 1930s, it makes it more concrete," said Tim Glenn, a School of Dance professor who teaches movement analysis and dance technique at FSU. "You can see the fashions, the techniques and how fabrics were used and dyed to create the costuming of modern dances from our past."

The School of Dance costume shop houses two major costume collections: The Killinger Collection: Costumes of Denishawn and Ted Shawn and His Men Dancers; and The Costumes of the Hanya Holm Collection.

Researchers from Fujita Health University have found that chronic hyponatremia (CHN), a condition of prolonged low blood sodium, induces anxiety-like behaviors in mice. CHN disrupts serotonin and dopamine levels and reduces extracellular signal-regulated kinase phosphorylation in the amygdala, a key brain region for emotion. These changes are reversible with sodium level correction. The findings suggest that CHN directly affects brain function and support early diagnosis and treatment to improve mental well-being in affected individuals.

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY: TITLE: HOW GEORGETOWN LINGUISTS, LEGAL EXPERT SCORED A WIN IN SUPREME COURT GHOST GUNS.CASE

A Georgetown team of two linguists and a law professor celebrated an achievement at the Supreme Court after their amicus ("friend of the court") brief was cited in the 7-to-2 majority opinion.

The case, Bondi v. VanDerStok, was brought by gun manufacturers in response to a Biden-era regulation concerning gun parts kits. These kits can be assembled into what are commonly known as "ghost guns" because the weapons are untraceable.

The justices confronted the question of whether the gun parts kits fall under the scope of the Gun Control Act of 1968, the federal law regulating the trade of firearms.

"If the answer is no, that poses serious gun safety challenges, because someone who wouldn't be able to purchase a fully functional firearm could purchase a gun parts kit and obtain a fully functional firearm in a day's work," said Kevin Tobia, professor at Georgetown Law.

In an amicus brief, the Georgetown team used linguistic concepts and research to argue that gun parts kits do fall under the definition of a firearm - and can thus be regulated under existing federal firearms legislation. Three men pose for a selfie From left to right, Brandon Waldon, Kevin Tobia and Nathan Schneider co-authored an amicus brief that was cited in the majority opinion of a Supreme Court case.

Tobia co-authored the amicus brief with two colleagues in the College of Arts & Sciences: Nathan Schneider, associate professor of linguistics and computer science, and Brandon Waldon, a postdoctoral fellow with the Fritz Family Fellowship in Tech & Society that promotes interdisciplinary research. Collaborators from Stanford University and Brandeis University also contributed to the amicus brief.

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY: GRADUATE SCHOOL IS HARD. SO IS FATHERHOOD. MEET THE GRAD STUDENT DADS MASTERING BOTH

As Antonio Bizarron Jauregui grew up in a community of immigrant farmworkers in Fresno, California, his walks to school with his grandmother were lessons of their own. He would tell her what he learned in class, and she, a Mexican laborer whose formal education stopped in middle school, would encourage him to dream about where that knowledge could take him.

Years later, Jauregui (G'25) has taken his grandmother's lessons to heart. He is a National Urban Fellow in Georgetown's McCourt School of Public Policy, pursuing a career in public service and advocacy. And he carries these values forward to his 15-month-old daughter, Soledad.

Jauregui graduated in May with a Master of Policy Management. As he held Soledad on his lap and his grandmother watched virtually from Mexico, Jauregui knew that he was fulfilling a family legacy and setting an example.

"Thinking about the promise of America, for me, the promise is in my baby," he said. "The promise is in my daughter and in the opportunities that this degree will be able to offer us."

Foreign scientists successfully continue their work in HSE University laboratories, combining fundamental and applied research to achieve significant results. HSE News Service has spoken to Professor Panos Pardalos, Head of the Laboratory of Algorithms and Technologies for Networks Analysis at HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod, about its work.

- What brings you to HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod?

- Before joining HSE University, I had previously visited Nizhny Novgorod and thus have colleagues at Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, where I was appointed Honorary Professor in 2005. I therefore knew that many young researchers and reputable experts in mathematics and computer science worked in Nizhny Novgorod.

Researchers at the HSE Centre for Language and Brain used eye-tracking to examine how bilinguals switch between languages in response to context shifts. Script differences were found to slow down this process. When letters appear unfamiliar-such as the Latin alphabet in a Russian-language text-the brain does not immediately switch to the other language, even when the person is aware they are in a bilingual setting. The article has been published in Bilingualism: Language and Cognition.

HARVARD UNIVERSITY: STILL WAITING

75 years after Fermi's paradox, are we any closer to finding alien life?

It was a simple question asked over lunch in 1950. Enrico Fermi, the Nobel Prize-winning physicist who helped usher in the atomic age, was dining with colleagues at Los Alamos, New Mexico, when the conversation turned to extraterrestrial life. Given the vastness of the universe and the statistical likelihood of other intelligent civilizations, Fermi wondered, "Where is everybody?"

Seventy-five years later, David Charbonneau, a professor of astronomy at the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian, says we're closer to an answer.

When Fermi posed his famous paradox, Charbonneau said, we hadn't identified a single planet beyond our solar system. The 1995 discovery of the first exoplanet allowed scientists to break the paradox into smaller, more solvable questions: How many stars are there? How many of those stars have planets? What fraction of those planets are Earth-like? What fraction of Earth-like planets support life? And finally, what fraction of that life is intelligent?

HARVARD UNIVERSITY: YOUTH GUN DEATHS RISE IN STATES THAT RELAXED LAWS

Child gun deaths have surged since a 2010 Supreme Court ruling led some state and local governments to relax their firearm laws, according to a new Mass General Brigham study.

Guns are the leading cause of death for youth in the U.S. but little is known about how firearm laws affect child mortality rates. To investigate, researchers looked at whether gun deaths among youth had changed in the years following a Supreme Court ruling that applied the Second Amendment to state and local governments.

They found in states with the most permissive laws evidence of 6,029 more child deaths due to firearms than would have been expected based on the existing demographic trends - and more than 1,400 excess deaths in states with permissive firearm laws. Rates remained unchanged or decreased in states with stricter laws. The results are published in JAMA Pediatrics.

Over the last decade, Dustin Tingley has reconsidered his beliefs about expertise.

As a public policy expert, Tingley has devised quantitative ways to understand the messy problems and sometimes messier datasets that abound in political economy, international trade, and political science. In recent years, he has turned his attention to the transition to renewable energy amid the quickening pace of climate change.

As he has done so, Tingley has found himself shifting focus from datasets that tell a story in numbers to stories told by people experiencing changing economic circumstances and climate-stressed times.

"I came to the realization that there was so much expertise about this topic that was not in academia," said Tingley, the Thomas D.

HARVARD UNIVERSITY: A STEP IN FIGHT AGAINST TICK-BORNE DISEASE

Ticks pose a grave risk to public health, with nearly half a million cases of the tick-borne Lyme disease treated every year in the United States.

Young nymph and adult female ticks typically pose the greatest risk for transmitting infection to humans. But, researchers say, there is much that is unknown about the sexual biology of ticks, knowledge that would prove useful in control efforts.

A new paper published in the Journal of Medical Entomology marks a major stride forward, chronicling a groundbreaking molecular method that differentiates male and female blacklegged ticks (commonly called deer ticks) and also reveals whether these arachnids have mated.

Lyme is perhaps the best-known disease passed by ticks, but the bacterium behind that malady is just one of several associated with them, explained Isobel Ronai, an HHMI postdoc in the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology and a primary author of the paper.

JAGIELLONIAN UNIVERSITY: FACES OF POSTMEMORY 6: BODY AND PLACES

The JU Institute of Intercultural Studies, Institute of Applied Linguistics of the University of Warsaw, and Section for Heritage and Cultural Memory Studies of the Polish Ethnological Society invite you to attend the conference 'Faces of Postmemory 6: Body and Places', which this year will be devoted to the links between postmemory, emotions, senses, corporeality, and space in the context of inheriting historical traumas and transforming them into various cultural and social forms.

The concept of postmemory, proposed by Marianne Hirsch (1997), refers to the inheritance of traumatic experiences by generations that did not directly experience them. These 'inherited' memories are transmitted through photographs, narratives, and cultural practices that evoke strong emotional reactions. This is particularly significant in the context of collective trauma, such as the experiences related to the Holocaust, slavery, or genocide, where the transmission of memories requires special affective engagement. Thus, affects, understood as intense emotional reactions with social and individual dimensions (see e.g., Massumi, 2002, Shouse 2005), constitute a key element of postmemory. Sara Ahmed (2004) and Dominick LaCapra (2001) emphasise that emotions such as empathy, anger, grief, or nostalgia help in transmitting memory over time and space, while also prompting reflection on the ethics of engaging with the traumatic heritage of the past. These emotions not only build bonds with what has passed but also shape the way the past is experienced and interpreted in the present.

An important context in postmemory and affect studies is multisensory engagement, which involves various senses in memory processes. As noted by David Howes (2005) and Anna Gibbs (2010), smells, sounds, textures, and images can act as carriers of memory, creating alternative ways of experiencing and transmitting traumatic experiences.

Interdisciplinary research increasingly emphasises the role of the body and place in memory and affective processes. The body can serve as a physical and symbolic carrier of memory, where affective and sensory traces of the past are recorded. Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1962) in his phenomenological studies pointed to the body as a place of experience, while Judith Butler (1993) developed the idea of corporeality as a performative medium of identity and memory. In the testimonies of survivors, we often find references to somatic experiences, such as trembling hands, tears, or silence, which convey aspects of trauma that are difficult to articulate. On the other hand, the place, understood both as a material spaces (e.g., homes, memorial sites, landscapes) and symbolic spaces, plays a key role in the processes of storing and recalling memory. As suggested by Pierre Nora (1989), places of memory are spaces where the past and present meet, evoking multilayered affective reactions.

JAGIELLONIAN UNIVERSITY: JU SCIENTISTS BECOME THE FIRST TO SHOW THAT QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT OF PHOTONS CAN BE USED IN CANCER DIAGNOSTICS.

The J-PET team (Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomography), founded and led by Prof. Pawel Moskal from the JU Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science, has discovered that photons from the annihilation of matter and antimatter in materials are not completely quantum entangled. The discovery opens up possibilities for using the degree of quantum entanglement of photons as an indicator in cancer diagnostics.

Quantum entanglement is a fascinating phenomenon that cannot be explained within our classical perception of the world. Quantum entangled photons behave as if one instantly knows what is happening with the other, regardless of how far apart they are.

The J-PET scanner, built at the JU Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science, is the world's first positron emission tomography device that operates based on plastic detectors. (J-PET) opens up new diagnostic possibilities, allowing for not only the imaging of the metabolism of selected substances, but also studying the properties of positronium atoms composed of an electron and an anti-electron, which are formed in humans in the spaces between atoms during PET diagnosis. This phenomenon has not been used in medical diagnostics until now. The first positronium image in the world was made with the J-PET scanner and published in the journal Science Advances in 2024.

Pictured below: the laboratory prototype of the J-PET scanner which was used in the discovery along with its main authors (left to right: Deepak Kumar, Dr Sushil Sharma, and Prof. Pawel Moskal). The image includes a diagram showing the annihilation of an electron with a positron and the photons along with their polarisation planes.

JAGIELLONIAN UNIVERSITY: HOW BEADS, MANDALAS AND BELLS CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF DOCTRINES AND THE DISSEMINATION OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS

Ringing bells, statues, rosaries and mandalas: aside from having a symbolic significance, these objects also facilitate participation in religious practices. On a larger scale, they help to consolidate teachings and pass them on, direct the attention of participants during rituals, and lower the 'entry threshold' to the religious community. Researchers from the JU Institute of Religious Studies and the Copernicus Center for Interdisciplinary Studies have analysed the role they play.

Many everyday objects that make our everyday lives easier are referred to as 'cognitive artefacts'. These are objects that support cognitive processes, meaning they either replace or assist us in certain intellectual activities. Examples of these include an abacus, which helps us count, a map, which helps us navigate space, or a notebook, which aids in remembering information.

Religious practices around the world also involve the use of various objects. Jews wear yarmulkes, practitioners of Vajrayana Buddhism use mandalas to visualise deities, and Catholics pray using rosaries. 'The rosary is a particularly good example of a cognitive artefact because it represents the number of prayers already said, thus relieving the user's working memory. Because of it, one does not have to count prayers "in their head", but simply move their fingers over the beads, focusing on the prayer', says one of the study's authors, Piotr Szymanek from the Institute of Religious Studies at the Jagiellonian University.

Some cognitive artefacts also influence the focus of believers, which is particularly important during group rituals. The bells used during mass to signal the moments when participants should stand or start reciting a prayer are a good example here. The attention of the faithful directed by the artefact, which frees them from the need to remember when to perform a specific action, allowing them to focus on more important aspects of the liturgy. Examples of artefacts that support a deeper understanding of religious ideas include paintings, baroque ceilings, or Buddhist mandalas.

As part of a grant from the National Science Centre, researchers from the JU Institute of Religious Studies and the Copernicus Center for Interdisciplinary Studies decided to jointly analyse some of the above functions of religious cognitive artefacts and their impact on the 'popularity' and development of a given religion over time. They presented the results of their analyses in the journal Method & Theory in the Study of Religion. The authors explain that religious systems which use cognitive artefacts can increase their chances of development, and some of them, especially those with elaborate theology, may even depend on the use of these artefacts.

If processing religious concepts, such as the Holy Trinity, requires a lot of cognitive effort, only a handful of the most devoted believers will be able to meet this challenge and remain in the faith. The rest may be inclined to change their religion to one that is more 'cognitively accessible'. However, thanks to cognitive artefacts, theological reflections and practices become more accessible to all members of the community, which in turn helps to maintain or increase the number of followers. Additionally, many cognitive artefacts are designed to support the process of instilling the teachings of a given religion by children. Examples include religious-themed comics that convey theological narratives in a form accessible to the youngest. Moreover, many theories in the field of religious studies predict that joint participation in long-lasting rituals can serve as a way to show loyalty and commitment to a given group.

'Religious practices which make use of cognitive artefacts act as filters, distinguishing truly committed members from less committed ones. Where rituals are supported by music, bells, or other artefacts, the threshold for demonstrating commitment is lowered across the community, making it relatively easier to be an engaged believer', says Piotr Szymanek.

According to the authors of the publication, the use of cognitive artefacts is crucial especially for what is known as the 'doctrinal mode' of religiosity based on routine and repetitive rituals. They are somewhat less significant for the 'imagistic mode', which is based on strong emotions, experiences, and spontaneity.

'In the doctrinal mode, the message is highly routinised, and theology is based on logical analysis. Leaders oversee adherence to rules, and rituals have a repetitive, conventional character, allowing practitioners to participate in ceremonies by reproducing the pattern. This gets increasingly is easier the more cognitive artefacts the faithful have at their disposal', adds Piotr Szymanek.

Alcon highlighted the transformative potential of institutional chairs as a tool to connect knowledge with the needs of the territory, stating that "institutional chairs are a good instrument to materialize the university's vocation to serve the territory". Alama, along the same lines, added that "the study of the territory requires a transversal and diverse look, and it is precisely this diversity that makes it possible to move towards a common goal".

JAUME I UNIVERSITY "THE MOTHERS OF THE SPANISH CONSTITUTION" CLAIM THE NEED TO CONTINUE WORKING TO REACH AGREEMENTS ON EQUALITY

The Universitat Jaume I has started this morning in Benicassim the course "The mothers of the Spanish Constitution: building democracy", an appointment included in the Summer University with which it wants to value the role of women who actively participated in the drafting of the Constitution and in the evolution of laws to achieve equality between men and women, and that for a long time have been silenced.

Precisely, the first day of the seminar was attended by Dolors Calvet, deputy for the PSUC; and Ana Maria Ruiz-Tagles, deputy for the PSOE, who recalled their work in the constituent legislature of 1977 in the round table "The contribution of women in the Spanish Constitution of 1978. A dialogue between the past and the present", in which the mayor of Castellon, BegoNa Carrasco, and the president of the Equality Commission of the Congress of Deputies, Susana Ros, also participated. The former deputy for UCD, Teresa Revilla, has not been able to attend due to personal issues, although she has sent a message explaining that her intention was to build a democratic country.

JAUME I UNIVERSITY CARMEN CALVO: "LEGAL FEMINISM IS WHAT IS BUILDING AND DEVELOPING DEMOCRACY AND THE CONSTITUTIONAL MODEL"

The evolution of legislation on equality has been the central theme of the second day of the course "The mothers of the Spanish Constitution: building democracy" organized by the Universitat Jaume I, and which has been initiated by the former vice-president of the Government and current president of the Council of State, Carmen Calvo. The politician and jurist wanted to emphasize that "it is legal feminism that is building and developing democracy and the constitutional model".

Within the framework of the Summer University held in Benicassim, Calvo pointed out in her presentation "The influence of feminist theory on the institutions of the State" that "without the legal part, politics does not advance and the social part is not consolidated", in reference to the advances made in terms of equality in recent years. However, the President of the Council of State has expressed that "the transformation of the space that has been inherited in which women have been excluded throughout history is slow and has only just begun".

In this sense, Calvo wanted to put on the table "the resistance of patriarchy to the advancement of equality between men and women", and pointed out that all equality laws in Spain have been constitutionalized through sentences. During her speech, the politician explained that there has been a first part of the feminist struggle to implement equality in the legal system and now "it is time to start a second, more qualitative part, in which a new social structure will have to be negotiated where personal and labour relations are developed".

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men globally. Diagnosing prostate cancer involves examining tissue samples under a microscope, a process that can be inconsistent and yield different results by different pathologists for the same sample, potentially affecting patient treatment. In some unclear cases, extra testing called immunohistochemistry (IHC) is used, but it adds cost, time, and lab work.

The Lancet has announced a new commission aimed at reorienting frailty in clinical practice, public health, and policy. Davide Liborio Vetrano is one of two experts from Karolinska Institutet, who are involved in this important initiative.

Frailty affects 12-24 percent of people aged 65 and older, with higher prevalence among women and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. It is characterised by vulnerability due to declines in physiological reserves, making individuals susceptible to adverse outcomes such as falls and loss of independence.

The newly formed Lancet Commission on Frailty will focus on four priority areas: recognising frailty as an actionable target, improving early detection, optimising management, and integrating frailty into public health policies.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON MOUTH AND GUT BACTERIA LINKED TO BRAIN CHANGES IN PARKINSON'S DISEASE

Specific changes in these bacteria, known as the microbiome, has associated with cognitive decline in Parkinson's. This includes the shift from mild memory issues to dementia, a common and distressing symptom of the disease.

These changes in the microbiome could potentially act as early warning signs of Parkinson's, helping doctors detect and treat the disease before symptoms become severe. Currently, Parkinson's is very difficult to diagnose in its early stages because symptoms develop slowly over time.

The research, led by King's College London, adds to the increasing evidence showing how gut and brain health are closely aligned. While the link between this 'gut-brain' relationship has been extensively studied, few studies have explored the role of the gut in cognitive decline of neurodegenerative degenerative disease such as Parkinson's.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDONLARGEST TWIN STUDY EXPLORES WHETHER THE ENVIRONMENT AFFECTS PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY DEPENDING ON THEIR GENES

Published in Nature Human Behaviour, the study examined how individuals' varying sensitivity to environmental factors can influence levels of ADHD symptoms, autistic traits, anxiety and depression symptoms, psychotic experiences and neuroticism.

The researchers combined data from up to 21,792 identical twins (10,896 pairs) from 11 studies to discover genetic variants linked with environmental sensitivity. This is the largest genome wide association study (GWAS) of identical twins to date.

They identified several genetic factors that were linked with differences in environmental sensitivity within identical twin pairs. The interaction between these genetic factors and environmental exposures could explain differences in susceptibility to psychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON STUDENTS PRACTICE COIN STRIKING AT ROMAN WORKSHOP

After a lecture on ancient minting, the students used 2kg hammers to strike the dies using the ancient technique of inserting the dies into a tree stump. The experimental archaeology project yielded real results on how the depth of the die engravings impact the portraits of the emperor, showing that ancient bronze coin dies were likely struck hot rather than cold and that the deeper the die does not necessarily mean a better imprint of the portraits.

King's Department of Engineering provided space in the Wheatstone Lab for the experiment and the project was funded by the King's College London Arts and Humanities Faculty Small Research Grant in conjunction with the ERC funded Roman Emperor as Seen From the Provinces Project.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON IMMUNE MARKERS IN BLOOD COULD PREDICT TOXICITY AND TREATMENT RESPONSE TO IMMUNOTHERAPY IN MELANOMA

Researchers at King's College London have identified immune markers in the blood that could help predict which patients with melanoma are most likely to benefit from immunotherapy and which patients are at greater risk of experiencing serious immune-related side effects.

Immunotherapy has transformed the outlook for many cancer patients, including those with melanoma. However, for some, the treatment can trigger serious immune-related side effects that are severe enough to stop therapy altogether. Currently, doctors have no reliable way to predict in advance who will benefit from treatment and who is at risk of these harmful reactions.

The new study, led by Professor Sophia Karagiannis, tackles a major challenge in cancer treatment by identifying patterns in the blood that could predict side effects and response to therapy before patients start treatment. The findings were published in the Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON STUDY REVEALS IMMUNE DRIVERS OF AGGRESSIVE BLOOD CANCER

The study, published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, focuses on the role of p53, a protein that normally helps control cell growth and repair. Although mutations in the TP53 gene are known to worsen outcomes in MDS, this study found that the p53 protein can stop working properly even when the gene appears normal.

MDS is a group of blood cancers that affect how the bone marrow makes healthy blood cells. Some forms progress slowly, while others can rapidly turn into acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Accurately identifying patients who are at higher risk is vital for guiding treatment decisions.

Understanding p53 dysfunction

Led by Drs Shahram Kordasti, King's, Francesca Ficara, IRCCS Humanitas Hospital, Italy and Matteo Giovanni Della Porta, Humanitas Hospital, Italy, the researchers analysed data from more than 6,000 people with MDS using techniques such as IHC, RNA sequencing, immune cell profiling, and single-cell analysis. They identified a group of patients with normal TP53 genes but high levels of abnormal p53 protein in their bone marrow, finding that these patients had worse outcomes than others.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON JULIET AND ROMEO STRAINS TO BE MEANINGFUL BUT NEVER EARNS ITS EMOTIONAL CRESCENDOS

Writer and director Timothy Scott Bogart and composer Evan Kidd join a lineage of Romeo and Juliet adaptations that blend music with spectacle. Who could forget Harold Perrineau's drag rendition of Young Hearts Run Free as Mercutio in Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet (1996)? More recently, the stage show & Juliet (2019) used the iconic songwriting of Max Martin for a jukebox musical meets feminist retelling of the tragedy. So where does Juliet and Romeo fall in comparison?

Let's begin with the fair, before turning to the foul. Shot on location in the real Verona, Juliet and Romeo makes excellent use of its scenery, with inventive sets and clever staging that breathe some vitality into its world.

Verona's jewel tones, candlelit street parties and endless twisting streets grant the film its fairytale quality. There's a tactile richness to the production design that occasionally feels immersive, evoking a heightened world somewhere between Shakespeare's imagined Verona and a perfume advert. The array of fight, dance, and crowd scenes are well-choreographed and the camera often moves with an energetic theatricality that hints at what the musical could have been.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON: GLOBAL ACTION URGENTLY NEEDED TO TACKLE ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE, EXPERTS WARN

In a new review published in npj Antimicrobials and Resistance, the authors outline the scientific, economic, and regulatory barriers that are slowing progress in the fight against highly resistant bacterial infections.

AMR is a growing global health crisis, already linked to nearly 5 million deaths each year. Without effective action, this number could rise to 10 million annually by 2050. Some of the most concerning threats come from Gram-negative bacteria. These include the bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae, which can cause deadly bloodstream infections from simple medical procedures in hospitals, and Acinetobacter baumannii, which can lead to ventilator-associated pneumonia.

Despite this, very few new antibiotics have reached the market in the past two decades. The need is clear, but the development process remains extremely difficult.

One major challenge is economic. Antibiotics are usually used for short periods and are often used only when necessary to slow the development of resistance. This means they generate much less revenue than drugs for chronic diseases like cancer, which are used over longer timeframes and are more profitable. As a result, many of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies, such as AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer, have withdrawn from antibiotic research.

The authors argue that new models are needed to make antibiotic development more attractive to industry. They highlight the importance of separating profits from the volume of antibiotics sold. A mix of incentives could help: push incentives like research grants and tax breaks to support early-stage research, and pull incentives like market entry rewards or subscription payments to support successful products.

The review highlights the UK's Antimicrobial Product Subscription Model as a positive example. Launched in 2022, it pays companies a fixed annual fee for access to new antibiotics, regardless of how much is used. The proposed PASTEUR Act in the US follows a similar approach.

Hyperthermia, a cancer treatment using controlled heat to kill tumor cells, shows promise but faces limitations due to some tumor cells' unexpected heat resistance. Researchers from Japan have now discovered that high cholesterol levels in cancer cell membranes act as a protective barrier, shielding against heat-induced membrane breakdown. When cholesterol was depleted using drugs, previously heat-resistant tumors became vulnerable to hyperthermia treatment, opening new possibilities for personalized cancer therapy targeting cholesterol levels to improve outcomes.

LOYOLA MARYMOUNT UNIVERSITY: AI AS A LEARNING PARTNER: PROMPTING THE FUTURE OF BUSINESS EDUCATION

Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant concept or emerging trend - it's here, shaping the world at an unprecedented pace. AI capacity is doubling every six to seven months, and youth demands are driving the behavior of these models. For organizations, this is a pivotal moment to rethink core strategies and operations. Amid this evolution, one skill is rising in importance: the art of communicating with AI.

At LMU College of Business Administration, that future came into sharp focus during a recent visit from Dr. Michael "MJ" Jabbour, AI innovation officer at Microsoft. MJ is an expert in organizational transformation with over two decades of experience in artificial intelligence, human-centered agile development, and healthcare. He led a full-day, hands-on workshop to help faculty and staff feel more empowered to understand and use AI in meaningful ways. It starts with how we talk to it. Prompting, as he described, isn't just a technical task. It's a conversation. It's context-setting. It's about learning to ask better questions to get better answers.

On Tuesday morning, 10 June, the University College Maastricht building on Zwingelput was occupied by protesters. Around 20 individuals are involved. They have blocked the entrances. No other staff or students are currently in the building.

UM is attempting to establish contact with the protesters. In an Instagram post, members of Maastricht4Palestine claimed responsibility for organising the occupation. They are calling on UM to cut all ties with Israel, to urge other universities to do the same, and to issue a condemnation of the genocide in Gaza.

Activities scheduled to take place at UCM today are being relocated to other buildings in the city centre of Maastricht. This is to ensure that teaching and research can continue as much as possible.

MAASTRICHT UNIVERSITY: PROTEST 10 JUNE 2025 - UPDATE 3

The occupation of the university building in Maastricht's city centre was brought to an end by police at the end of the day.

Throughout the day, Maastricht University (UM) had no clear insight into what was happening inside the occupied building or whether the safety of the approximately 20 occupiers, as well as the building itself, could be guaranteed. What was visible, however, was that around 10:30 a.m., occupiers lit flares in open windows. This significantly increased concerns about safety.

Late in the afternoon, UM was able to establish contact with representatives of the occupiers. However, this did not lead to access to the building, meaning the situation inside could not be assessed. As a result, it also remained unclear whether the occupiers were members of the UM community.

At the end of the day, the police proceeded to end the occupation of the university building in Maastricht's city centre.

At around 6:00 p.m., the Executive Board made one final attempt to invite the occupiers for a conversation, on the condition that the occupation be ended. This invitation was not answered.

UM STANDS FIRM FOR ACADEMIC FREEDOM AND INTERNATIONAL LAW

The world is going through turbulent times. The horrific violence in places like Gaza and Ukraine, as well as anti-academic trends in countries such as the United States, have also sparked discussion within our university community. These discussions range from the role universities should play in global developments to how we treat one another within and around the academic community. As a university committed to active citizenship, global engagement, and international law, these issues are of the highest importance to the UM Executive Board and ones we must continue to discuss together.

Below is an update on several topics currently relevant to UM within this complex context. We will also address the 'Ask Me Anything' session on the afternoon of Thursday 12 June, where we look forward to engaging in dialogue with the UM community following the end of the occupation at UCM on 10 June. Academic freedom

Recently, our rector, together with the rectors of other Dutch universities, stated in clear terms that academic freedom is under pressure and now, more than ever, requires protection. The rectors also reflect on their own institutions: "Academic freedom is not a carte blanche. ( ) Freedom without responsibility undermines itself. Therefore, academic freedom is always rooted in the frameworks of the law, scientific integrity, academic standards, and mutual respect."

Research in areas such as European constitutional law, human rights, constitutional theory and Dutch law now takes place within other research groups and institutes, such as the Maastricht Centre for European Law (MCEL), the Maastricht Centre for Human Rights (MCfHR), the Maastricht Centre for Law & Jurisprudence (MCLJ), the Globalisation and Law Network (GLawNet), and the Maastricht Research Centre for Society and Law (MOSaR).

Therefore, the faculty has decided to discontinue the Maastricht Montesquieu Institute (MMI) - which has been active within the faculty since 2008 - as of 1 September 2025 as it has fulfilled its role. The valuable collaboration between the faculty staff and the national Montesquieu Institute will remain unchanged.

The MMI has made a significant contribution to constitutional law research at Maastricht University. Over the years, it has produced a wide range of publications, hosted academic events and supported many PhD candidates. The Faculty of Law looks back with pride on what the MMI has accomplished.

MCMASTER UNIVERSITY: MCMASTER SCIENTISTS BREED MUSHROOMS AS A NATURAL SUBSTITUTE FOR PLASTIC, FABRIC AND OTHER MATERIALS

Scientists at McMaster University have demonstrated that natural genetic variations in a common species of mushroom can be used to create new strains capable of making customized, biodegradable replacements for fabric, plastic, packaging and environmentally harmful materials.

While mushrooms are already being used to produce a wide variety of eco-friendly products, manufacturers face a major challenge: Mushrooms can vary widely in strength and flexibility, even when they are grown and processed in the same manner.

For this study, researchers investigated how the natural genetic variation of the split gill mushroom, which is found all over the world, can influence the characteristics of the fungal mycelium, the root-like but extremely versatile filaments fungi use to grow and feed.

These structures can be harvested and processed into sustainable materials such as vegan leather and foam alternatives. A headshot of a man wearing glasses and a black jacket. Senior author and Biology professor Jianping Xu.

MCMASTER UNIVERSITY: MESSAGE FROM THE ACTING PROVOST ON THE APPROVAL OF MCMASTERS 2025-26 BUDGET

Earlier today, McMaster's Board of Governors approved the university's consolidated budget for the 2025-26 academic year. It is a budget that reflects our continued commitment to strong financial stewardship and prudent planning during a period of continued uncertainty and constraint for the post-secondary sector.

I want to thank faculty and staff across our six Faculties and administrative units. Your thoughtfulness, resourcefulness and dedication have been essential in helping us manage challenges and maintain the university's stable financial position.

As outlined in the budget document released today, the Operating Fund for 2024-25, which is McMaster's core academic and administrative budget, is projected to close nearly balanced, with a modest $1.9 million surplus on a budget of more than $850 million.

Looking ahead to 2025-26, a small deficit is projected, driven by higher costs and ongoing revenue constraints related to the extended domestic tuition freeze and federally imposed caps on international student enrolment. We will aim to balance the Operating Fund budget by continuing many of the strategies we've used successfully in recent years. These include increased collaboration across units, finding new sources of revenue, and continuing to manage costs through efficiencies, attrition and salary gapping - creating short-term savings by leaving some positions temporarily unfilled.

MCMASTER UNIVERSITY: ANALYSIS: WE DESIGN CITIES AND BUILDINGS FOR EARTHQUAKES AND FLOODS WE NEED TO DO THE SAME FOR WILDFIRES

We live in an age of increasing wildfire disasters because more of us are living in places where wildfires and human development collide. Right now, fast-moving wildfires are forcing mass evacuations and destroying homes across Manitoba, Saskatchewan and British Columbia, where entire communities are under threat.

Despite the growing impacts of extreme weather events, including prolonged droughts and increasing temperatures, we continue building and even rebuilding homes in likely paths of destructive wildfires.

As cities grow, the demand for new home developments in previously forested areas means that we're rapidly losing buffers between developed and natural land. Consequently, we're also losing much of our protection from wildfire.

I'm a structural engineer, and I was living in British Columbia during the 2023 Kelowna fires. I remember the smoke and anxiety about what was coming next. Seeing news coverage of January's fires in Los Angeles brought back those memories. Hearing people ask how this could have happened led me to ask in response: How could it not have happened?

My research speciality is in protecting structures from fires, earthquakes and explosions. From my work, I know that improved materials and engineering can protect homes much better than we do today.

As we enter another wildfire season in Canada, I worry there will soon be new reminders of what we still haven't done and urgently need to do.

MCMASTER UNIVERSITY: THE SWEET SIDE OF SUSTAINABILITY: SUGAR SHEET IS MAKING MCMASTER GREENER

McMaster's Media Production Services (MPS) has been recognized nationally for their leadership in sustainable campus operations, following the successful implementation of an innovative paper alternative across student-facing photocopiers.

In early 2024, MPS introduced Sugar Sheet-a paper made entirely from recycled sugar cane fibers-as a replacement for conventional photocopier paper. The initiative, which began as a small pilot project, has since expanded to all student-facing photocopiers located in campus libraries, labs, and residences, with no reported issues or disruptions.

Sugar Sheet is manufactured using post-agricultural waste, offering a more sustainable option than traditional paper, which often contains a mix of virgin and recycled fibers. The product aligns with McMaster's broader sustainability goals, including reducing waste and supporting environmentally responsible procurement practices.

The project was led by MPS Director Phil Poelmans, who first learned about Sugar Sheet during a meeting with a supplier. After securing a sample, he conducted a discreet trial in a library office to assess performance without bias. Staff using the printer reported no noticeable difference in quality or functionality, confirming the product's viability.

Following the successful trial, MPS negotiated with the supplier to purchase Sugar Sheet at the same cost as standard paper. The transition to Sugar Sheet across student-accessible printers was completed during the Winter 2024 term.

MSU STUDY EXAMINES STATE LEGISLATION ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF US FARMLAND

A growing number of state legislatures across the U.S. have introduced bills in recent years aimed at restricting foreign ownership of agricultural land - an issue that has sparked headlines, political debate and a patchwork of policy responses.

Now, new research from Michigan State University brings much-needed clarity to this evolving policy landscape. Published in the journal Food Policy, the study analyzed 143 bills introduced across 34 states, along with the actions of more than 6,700 state legislators, offering one of the most comprehensive empirical assessments to date on the drivers behind these legislative efforts.

"This is a topic that touches on agriculture, land access, food security and international investment," said David Ortega, professor and the Noel W. Stuckman Chair in Food Economics and Policy at MSU. "Our goal was to understand what's motivating this surge in state-level action."

FACULTY VOICE: INCREASING HANDS-ON TEACHING OPPORTUNITIES AT MSU LAW IS A TOP PRIORITY

Over the past decade, Michigan has transformed its indigent defense system, with dozens of new public defender offices, higher performance standards, better training and support and fair pay for public defenders. After recently ranking near the bottom of all states for indigent defense funding, Michigan has become a national model for innovative reform. We all should be proud.

But some aspects of the system have struggled to keep pace with such drastic change. One is the need for highly qualified and conscientious public defenders, including law school graduates with the skills and passion for this challenging work. Another is an urgent need for qualified legal representation in a specific type of indigent criminal case: pre-conviction appeals, which are growing in number as trial public defenders put up more of a fight yet sometimes fall beyond the capacity or expertise of those lawyers.

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: ASK THE EXPERT: HOW PRIDE MONTH HAS EVOLVED AND WHAT THAT MEANS FOR LGBTQIA+ REPRESENTATION

The first Pride march was held in New York City June 28, 1970, on the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. The Stonewall Uprising started with a raid on the gay bar, the Stonewall Inn, in New York City and resulted in six days of protests and fighting between police and the LGBTQIA+ community.

In 1969, homosexuality was considered a criminal offense and police raids on gay bars and spaces were happening across the U.S. Stonewall was a tipping point that led to the gay liberation movement in the United States. Since then, LGBTQIA+ people and allies have continued to gather during Pride Month in June to march for equal rights and celebrate identity and community.

MSU RESEARCHERS EXAMINE KARACHI'S WATER MAFIA, LOCAL EXPERTS REFLECT ON MICHIGAN'S WATER WOES

In the humid heat of Karachi - Pakistan's largest city and home to more than 20 million people - a tanker truck connects to a fire hydrant and begins siphoning water. This is not unusual. These tankers are part of what's known as the "water mafia" or "tanker mafia," a loosely organized network that steals water from the public supply and sells it back to residents at inflated prices. While exploitative, the water they provide remains the only viable option for many low-income neighborhoods in Karachi.

At Michigan State University, Ph.D. student Noormah Rizwan and assistant professorJames Sears are studying how this system operates and asking the questions:

Are systematic inequalities paving the way for the "water mafia"? What is the social impact of the"water mafia"?

Through surveys with 460 households and 17 tanker operators, they found that the tanker network both reinforces inequality in Karachi and fills a critical gap.

Rizwan explained, "Households that might otherwise be receiving piped water regularly are now receiving it less regularly because that water is being taken out of the system. But we also see that about 48% of households in our data aren't even connected to the piped infrastructure because of where they're located."

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: AMAZON TREES UNDER PRESSURE: NEW STUDY REVEALS HOW FOREST GIANTS HANDLE LIGHT AND HEAT

Scientists use satellite images of light given off by plants - called solar-induced fluorescence, or SIF - to check how healthy the Amazon forest is. SIF is often used to estimate how much photosynthesis is happening. But this study shows that SIF may not be a reliable predictor of photosynthesis functionality. When the climate is stressful, like during a drought, leaves might still glow more even though their ability to photosynthesize is diminished. This could lead scientists to think the forest is doing better than it really is. The findings offer a first-of-its-kind, high-resolution look at how the Amazon canopy navigates seasonal extremes. Understanding how trees manage light energy is important worldwide, as the Amazon plays a vital role in global climate regulation, recycling moisture into rainfall and storing vast amounts of carbon.

In a recent study published in New Phytologist, researchers at Michigan State University have uncovered how Amazon rainforest canopy trees manage the intense sunlight they absorb - revealing resilience to hot and dry conditions in the forest canopy while also offering a way to greatly improve the monitoring of canopy health under increasing extreme conditions. The study was made possible by funding from the National Science Foundation and NASA. Leonardo Ziccardi in the tree canopy. Photo by Rafael Francisco Grilo.

The study, led by doctoral candidate Leonardo Ziccardi with Associate Professor Scott Stark in the MSU Department of Forestry, shows how tropical trees act like giant solar antennas - absorbing vast quantities of light energy that must be carefully managed. When trees absorb more energy than they can use for photosynthesis, it must be safely dissipated, either as heat or re-emitted as light - a process called chlorophyll fluorescence.

NAGASAKI UNIVERSITY: A STUDY ON EVACUATION STRATEGIES TO MINIMIZE DISASTER-RELATED DEATHS DURING NUCLEAR DISASTERS

Researchers from the Graduate School of Integrated Science and Technology (School of Information and Data Sciences) and the Atomic Bomb Disease Institute at Nagasaki University conducted a study titled "Exposure Doses among Hospitalized Patients and Medical Personnel after the Accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station." The study results have been published in the international peer-reviewed journal Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness.

Following the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS) in 2011, evacuation orders were issued for areas within a 20 km radius of the plant, forcing approximately 110,000 residents to evacuate. Among them were many elderly patients who were hospitalized at the time. Numerous deaths occurred during or after evacuation due to a deterioration in physical condition, which are referred to as disaster-related deaths.

To assess evacuation strategies that could minimize such deaths, the study examined early-phase radiation dose rates data from Futaba Town, Fukushima Prefecture, where hospitals were located near the nuclear plant. Using this data, they estimated the radiation exposure doses in several scenarios, including cases in which individuals were hospitalized as patients or were working as medical personnel at the time of the accident.

The results indicated that, despite exceptionally high ambient doses immediately following the accident, the radiation exposure of hospitalized patients and medical personnel remained relatively low due to the shielding effect of the hospital building. Even in the scenario where patients remained in the hospital for one month without evacuation, the estimated radiation doses were significantly lower than levels considered to increase cancer risk. These findings provide important insights into evacuation strategies aimed at minimizing disaster-related deaths.

This study was conducted as part of a commissioned research project funded by the Fukushima Institute for Research, Education and Innovation (F-REI).

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY: SCHOOL DENTAL TREATMENTS STOP KIDS TOOTH DECAY IN ITS TRACKS

Two topical treatments applied to kids' cavities can stop the majority of them from progressing for years, according to a study led by NYU College of Dentistry and published in JAMA Network Open.

Treating more than 10,000 cavities in New York City elementary school students, the researchers found that both atraumatic restorations (ART) and silver diamine fluoride (SDF) kept most dental decay from worsening, supporting the use of non-surgical approaches for managing cavities.

Children miss an estimated 34 million hours of school each year due to emergency dental care. Bringing cavity prevention programs to schools can improve kids' oral health and stave off many issues that drive the need for urgent treatment, including extractions due to pain, abscess, or risk of infection.

In school-based dental programs, health professionals often use sealants-thin, protective coatings applied to the surface of children's back teeth-to safeguard against tooth decay. But few programs address existing cavities. ART can be used to stop the progression of cavities by removing tooth decay with hand instruments and applying the same protective material as sealants. SDF has also emerged as a promising tool for cavity prevention and treatment; originally approved by the FDA for treating tooth sensitivity, the liquid is brushed onto teeth to kill decay-causing bacteria and remineralize teeth to prevent further decay.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY: ANTHROPOLOGISTS MAP NEANDERTHALS LONG AND WINDING ROADS ACROSS EUROPE AND EURASIA

Recent scholarship has concluded that Neanderthals made a second major migration from Eastern Europe to Central and Eastern Eurasia between 120,000 and 60,000 years ago. But the routes they took have long been a mystery-primarily because there are few archaeological sites connecting the two regions.

In a new analysis, a team of anthropologists-using computer simulations-has offered a map of possible pathways, which concludes Neanderthals likely used river valleys as natural highways and traveled during warmer periods to move approximately 2,000 miles (3,250 km) in less than 2,000 years.

"Our findings show that, despite obstacles like mountains and large rivers, Neanderthals could have crossed northern Eurasia surprisingly quickly," explains Emily Coco, who began the study as a New York University doctoral student and is now a postdoctoral researcher at Portugal's University of Algarve.

The research, which appears in the journal PLOS One, was conducted with Radu Iovita, an associate professor at NYU's Center for the Study of Human Origins.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY: A GRASSROOTS APPROACH TO HUMANITARIAN AID

After a devastating earthquake struck Haiti in January 2010, international aid flooded the impoverished country. Much of the funding was funneled through non-governmental organizations (NGOs) providing medical care, supplying food and clean drinking water, and rebuilding homes.

Haiti is often referred to as the "NGO Republic," with thousands of organizations providing an estimated 80 percent of the country's basic services. But the abundance of NGOs and extensive investments have failed to meet the needs of the Haitian people in building up local sustainable infrastructure, and likely contributed to the country's ongoing and urgent crises of violence and displacement.

Why were so many NGOs ineffective following the earthquake? One key factor: a mismatch between donor and organizational priorities and the needs of Haitians-for instance, jobs rebuilding homes going to international workers instead of locals, or changes to the health system that strayed from community norms.

These challenges facing Haiti became clear to members of the Applied Global Public Health Initiative, a student-run research lab at NYU School of Global Public Health that collaborates with NGOs to find innovative solutions to public health problems.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY: DEPRESSION LINKED TO A LESS DIVERSE ORAL MICROBIOME

A rich and varied mix of microbes in the mouth, particularly bacteria, is not only important for our oral health, but may hold clues for other conditions. A new study led by researchers at NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing finds that a lower diversity of microbes in the mouth is associated with depression.

The mouth is home to between 500 billion and 1 trillion bacteria-the second-largest community of microorganisms in our bodies, after the gut. A growing number of studies point to the connection between the oral microbiome and our overall health, from diabetes to dementia, a relationship thought to be driven by inflammation and disruptions to the immune system.

A recent study in mice found a potential link between depression and the diversity of bacteria in the gut, but less is known about the connection between the oral microbiome and depression.

"Having a better understanding of the relationship between the oral microbiome and depression could not only help us learn about the mechanisms underlying depression, but could contribute to the development of new biomarkers or treatments for mood disorders," said Bei Wu, vice dean for research at NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing and the senior author of the study, published in the journal BMC Oral Health.

To explore the connection between the oral microbiome and depression, the researchers examined survey and biological data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Using data from more than 15,000 US adults ages 18 and older collected between 2009 and 2012, the researchers compared questionnaires measuring symptoms of depression with saliva samples. Gene sequencing was used to identify the microbes in the saliva and measure the diversity of the oral microbiome.

The researchers found that people with less diversity in their oral microbiomes were more likely to have symptoms of depression. Additional analyses showed that smoking, drinking, and dental care-all of which can change the makeup of bacteria in the mouth-influenced the relationship between the oral microbiome and depression.

These findings suggest that, with more research, the oral microbiome could potentially be used to diagnose or treat depression. However, based on this study, it's not clear whether the diversity of microbes in the mouth influences depression or if depression leads to changes in the oral microbiome-or if there's a bidirectional relationship between the two.

"It's possible that the oral microbiome influences depressive symptoms through inflammation or changes to the immune system. Conversely, depression can drive changes including dietary intake, poor oral hygiene, increased smoking and drinking, or the use of medications-all of which have the potential to alter the oral microbiome," said Wu. "We need more research to understand the direction and underlying pathways of this relationship."

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY ABU DHABI: ANTHROPOLOGISTS MAP NEANDERTHALS LONG AND WINDING ROADS ACROSS EUROPE AND EURASIA

Computer simulated paths of Neanderthal dispersals demonstrate they could have reached the Altai Mountains in Siberia within 2,000 years during warm climatic conditions in one of two ancient time periods-MIS 5e (approximately 125,000 years ago) or MIS 3 (approximately 60,000 years ago)-as demonstrated by the three different possible paths shown here. These paths follow a northern route through the Ural Mountains and southern Siberia, often intersecting with known archaeological sites from the same time periods. Image courtesy of Emily Coco and Radu Iovita.

Recent scholarship has concluded that Neanderthals made a second major migration from Eastern Europe to Central and Eastern Eurasia between 120,000 and 60,000 years ago. But the routes they took have long been a mystery-primarily because there are few archaeological sites connecting the two regions.

In a new analysis, a team of anthropologists-using computer simulations-has offered a map of possible pathways, which concludes Neanderthals likely used river valleys as natural highways and traveled during warmer periods to move approximately 2,000 miles (3,250 km) in less than 2,000 years.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY ABU DHABI: SCHOOL DENTAL TREATMENTS STOP KIDS TOOTH DECAY IN ITS TRACKS

Two topical treatments applied to kids' cavities can stop the majority of them from progressing for years, according to a study led by NYU College of Dentistry and published in JAMA Network Open.

Treating more than 10,000 cavities in New York City elementary school students, the researchers found that both atraumatic restorations (ART) and silver diamine fluoride (SDF) kept most dental decay from worsening, supporting the use of non-surgical approaches for managing cavities.

Children miss an estimated 34 million hours of school each year due to emergency dental care. Bringing cavity prevention programs to schools can improve kids' oral health and stave off many issues that drive the need for urgent treatment, including extractions due to pain, abscess, or risk of infection.

In school-based dental programs, health professionals often use sealants-thin, protective coatings applied to the surface of children's back teeth-to safeguard against tooth decay. But few programs address existing cavities. ART can be used to stop the progression of cavities by removing tooth decay with hand instruments and applying the same protective material as sealants. SDF has also emerged as a promising tool for cavity prevention and treatment; originally approved by the FDA for treating tooth sensitivity, the liquid is brushed onto teeth to kill decay-causing bacteria and remineralize teeth to prevent further decay.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY ABU DHABI: A GRASSROOTS APPROACH TO HUMANITARIAN AID

After a devastating earthquake struck Haiti in January 2010, international aid flooded the impoverished country. Much of the funding was funneled through non-governmental organizations (NGOs) providing medical care, supplying food and clean drinking water, and rebuilding homes.

Haiti is often referred to as the "NGO Republic," with thousands of organizations providing an estimated 80 percent of the country's basic services. But the abundance of NGOs and extensive investments have failed to meet the needs of the Haitian people in building up local sustainable infrastructure, and likely contributed to the country's ongoing and urgent crises of violence and displacement.

Why were so many NGOs ineffective following the earthquake? One key factor: a mismatch between donor and organizational priorities and the needs of Haitians-for instance, jobs rebuilding homes going to international workers instead of locals, or changes to the health system that strayed from community norms.

There's immense variety in popular music careers, even beyond the extremes of one-hit wonders and the long-haulers touring stadiums into their dotage. There are those who embody a specific era, burning briefly and brightly, and those whose legacy spans decades.

Straddling both of those, and occupying a distinctive space in popular music history, is Sylvester Stewart, better known as Sly Stone, who died at the age of 82 on Monday June 9.

A pioneer of funk whose sound spread far beyond the genre, his band Sly and the Family Stone synthesised disparate strands of American popular music into a unique melange, tracking the musical and social shifts as the 1960s wore into the 1970s.

A musical prodigy and multi-instrumentalist from a young age, Stone was born in Texas in 1943 and raised in California, in a religious Pentecostal family. He had put out his first single aged 13 - a locally released gospel song with three of his siblings, who would later join him in Sly and the Family Stone.

A record producer and DJ by his early twenties, he imbibed the music of British acts like The Beatles and Rolling Stones, and applied his eclectic tastes and musical versatility to producing local psychedelic and garage rock acts in the emergent San Francisco scene.

NORTH CAROLINA STATE UNIVERSITY: TRUMP'S EPA TO CLAIM POWER-PLANT EMISSIONS 'NOT SIGNIFICANT' - BUT STUDY SAYS OTHERWISE

Donald Trump's administration is set to claim planet-heating pollution spewing from US power plants is so globally insignificant it should be spared any sort of climate regulation.

But, in fact, the volume of these emissions is stark - if the US power sector were a country, it would be the sixth largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the world.

Trump's Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reportedly drafted a plan to delete all restrictions on greenhouse gases coming from coal and gas-fired power plants in the US because they "do not contribute significantly to dangerous pollution" and are a tiny and shrinking share of the overall global emissions that are driving the climate crisis.

However, a new analysis shows that the emissions from American fossil-fuel plants are prominent on a global scale, having contributed 5% of all planet-heating pollution since 1990. If it were a country, the US power sector would be the sixth largest emitter in the world, eclipsing the annual emissions from all sources in Japan, Brazil, the UK and Canada, among other nations.

Citizens of the United States can participate in one of the vital functions of their democracy by casting a vote for their preferred candidate in local, state and federal elections. On the surface, the voting process seems simple: you fill out the ballot and cast your vote. However, what goes on behind the scenes is much more complex.

To prepare students interested in working on the administrative side of elections, NAU has partnered with the Arizona Secretary of State's office to provide a new, fully online certificate in Election Administration for undergraduate or graduate students.

Sara Rinfret, professor and director of the Master of Public Affairs program in the Department of Politics and International Affairs, said this certificate will provide employment opportunities for students in one of Arizona's county election offices or the Arizona Secretary of State's office.

"This is a good pipeline for career placement for our students interested in the administrative aspects of an election," Rinfret said. "We are not focusing on how to run a campaign, but instead, we want our students to understand how the administrative side of elections works through the lens of public administration."

Although some universities offer different election-related degrees, research institutes or training, NAU's approach is unique because it affords students a flexible online curriculum and a culminating fellowship experience that's already seen success in Arizona. The certificate may be pursued and completed concurrently with a degree program or as a standalone certificate.

OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY: AVOID FOOD WASTE WITH PRACTICAL STORAGE SOLUTIONS

As food insecurity grows and grocery prices climb, Oklahoma State University Extension encourages the public to reduce food waste.

Household food waste represents between 30% to 40% of all food waste generated in the United States, but smart food storage and basic meal planning can prevent waste and help families save money. Food price trends

Although the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement exempts Mexican fruits and vegetables from tariffs, Rodney Holcomb, OSU Extension specialist for food economics, said South American produce is subject to a baseline 10% tariff, which increases consumer prices.

Beef prices, specifically, are affected by the threat of New World screwworm, which has halted beef imports from Mexico.

"The U.S. has the lowest number of cattle in this country since the 1960s, and no animals coming in from Mexico is a big hit for us," Holcomb said. "We depend on Canada and Mexico for a lot of cattle and hogs. When beef prices rise, pork and poultry prices also rise as consumers shift some demand to these other protein sources."

OSU FIRE SERVICE TRAINING CREDITED WITH REAL-WORLD IMPACT

Oklahoma State University's Fire Service Training, part of the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology, recently received a powerful testimony from a new firefighter who credited FST's Firefighter I Academy with helping him make his first successful rescue on the job just days after graduating from the updated program.

"Just wanted to reach out and say thank you guys for everything at Fire 1 the last couple weeks," the firefighter wrote. "I'm on my second tour today, and this morning, me and my senior firefighter made a grab. The fire started in the garage and filled the house with smoke - zero visibility. We found [the resident] conscious, standing behind the front door when we made entry everything you guys taught us was real. It just felt like we were running another drill at training."

This recent save highlights the lifesaving power of the updated Firefighter I Academy, part of FST's robust portfolio of courses. With over 4,200 courses conducted across Oklahoma in 2024 alone, FST instructors trained more than 47,000 participants and delivered more than 42,000 hours of instruction.

OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY: HPNRI, FIELDS & FUTURES HOST HIGH-IMPACT STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING CLINIC FOR OKCPS COACHES

More than 40 Oklahoma City Public Schools coaches gathered last Wednesday for a high-impact strength and conditioning clinic hosted by Fields & Futures in collaboration with the Oklahoma State University Human Performance and Nutrition Research Institute, OKCPS and the Oklahoma City Police Athletic League.

Led by OSU Athletics' Director of Strength and Conditioning, Rob Glass, and HPNRI members, the clinic was more than a training session; it was an investment in the people shaping the lives of student-athletes across Oklahoma City's urban core. Rob Glass demonstrates proper techniques during the clinic in Oklahoma City.

Research continues to show that physical activity, and sports in particular, can play a critical role in personal development among youth, positively influencing self-esteem, goal-setting and leadership skills. But the evidence is clear, the quality of coaching is one of the most important factors in unlocking those benefits.

That's why this clinic happened.

"This is a classic example of how we operate at Fields & Futures," said Dr. David Crynes, executive director of the organization. "We thrive on being the connective tissue bringing together programs and partners who are already doing great work and making something even more impactful."

Founded in 2012 by Tim and Liz McLaughlin after touring neglected OKCPS athletic facilities, Fields & Futures has completed 71 field projects across the district, totaling approximately $35 million. In 2022, the organization pivoted its mission by shifting from building athletic fields to building teams by increasing student participation in sports.

BRICK BY BRICK; RODRIGO TELLO HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTING HIS MASTERPIECE AT OSU ONE BLOCK AT A TIME

The original "Starry Night" painting by Vincent van Gogh has been hanging in New York's Museum of Modern Art for decades. But for Rodrigo Tello, a more sentimental version sits on a bookshelf in his office at the Spears School of Business.

Tello's expressionist classic is made from LEGOS, of course, its intense circular brush strokes are represented by dozens of intricately placed blocks. It took him around 15 hours to build, and the 3D representation is so realistic it feels like the church spires pop out to greet you.

When Tello first opened the box to begin building the miniature masterpiece, 2,316 pieces lay scattered before him, their purpose unclear. But as he clicked them together, one by one, something magnificent began to slowly emerge. A little village appeared, then a swirling blue sky. Dark, tall cypress trees popped into place. It turns out, the miniature Starry Night existed all along in those seemingly random pieces.

The work of art is an apt metaphor for Tello's own journey from Puebla, Mexico, to building a life and career at Oklahoma State University. Like those LEGO pieces, each step of his path - from international student to doctoral candidate, from intern to MBA program manager, student visa holder to proud American citizen - has been painstakingly placed, each one contributing to something greater.

Femi Abioye stepped to the podium in his crisp black suit and sleek black tie, which made his starched white shirt seem almost radiant. His hands were steady on each side of the dais. Abioye looked cool on the outside, but he was admittedly a little nervous.

How could he not be?

A standout management information systems major, Abioye was tasked with revealing the motivation behind his academic achievements and unshakable demeanor to an audience of around 400 distinguished alumni and award-winning students at the 2024 Spears School of Business Dean's Scholarship Banquet.

Abioye wanted to do the opposite. He wanted to tell everyone how their contributions had made his story possible, and that committing to the process of success - no matter how tough it may be - was essential. He wouldn't be standing at the front of that room without it.

That's when the Oklahoma State University junior dropped the bombshell.

"Sometimes, things come out of left field and hit you like a truck," Abioye said. "That kind of happened to me last November when I lost my father."

For the last four years, Oklahoma State University business leaders have gathered to celebrate the accomplishments of their ventures with the Cowboy family.

The Cowboy100 highlights the growth and success of Cowboy-owned or operated businesses worldwide. Hundreds of companies have entered to participate in the competitive event, but a select few have made it all four years.

To qualify, companies must have been in business for five years or more, have verifiable revenues of $100,000+ in the three years prior, be Cowboy-owned or led and operate and act with high integrity in a manner consistent with the values and image of the university.

For these business leaders, the Cowboy100 is an opportunity to connect to their roots, remembering where they started and how far they've come. The event also inspires current students, allowing them to see what's possible because of the legacy set before them.

That's just how John Alberts, attorney and owner of Bedlam Law, feels.

OSU TUITION HELD FLAT FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT YEAR

The OSU/A&M Board of Regents has voted to keep tuition and mandatory academic fees flat for a fourth consecutive year at Oklahoma State University.

The vote reaffirms the board's desire to maintain the affordability and accessibility of a high-quality college education for students and their families.

OSU/A&M Board of Regents Chair Jimmy Harrel shared his thoughts after the vote.

"As Regents of the Oklahoma State University System, we are pleased to maintain tuition and mandatory academic fees without increase for the fourth consecutive year," Harrel said. "The decision reflects the commitment of the regents and university leadership to maintaining the affordability and accessibility of a college education. It is our land-grant mission to provide those opportunities to as many students as possible, for the betterment of our communities, the state and our country."

OSU President Jim Hess echoed that sentiment and expressed his gratitude for the regents' focus on students.

"We are deeply grateful to the OSU/A&M Board of Regents for once again voting to keep tuition and mandatory academic fees flat, reaffirming our commitment to putting students first and fulfilling our land-grant mission," Dr. Hess said. "We are called to widen the doors of opportunity, and by holding the line on tuition, we ensure that a world-class education remains within reach for every Oklahoman willing to work for it. This decision supports our mission to educate the next generation of leaders, from the classroom to the community."

S&P Global and Fitch Group - two leading national credit rating agencies - have consistently recognized OSU's strong financial position, assigning it a high AA- rating. As the top-rated higher education institution in Oklahoma, these ratings reflect OSU's financial capacity and commitment to fiduciary responsibility.

OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY: BUILDING FINANCIAL SKILLS AT AN EARLY AGE CAN PAY BIG DIVIDENDS

"Children start to develop financial attitude at 5 to 6 years old," Wang said. "This is why parents need to model good financial habits. Just like teaching our children good habits, such as brushing their teeth and doing their homework, we also need to teach them about money."

Children know what money is from an early age because they see their parents paying for groceries, restaurant meals, gas, clothing and more. What they don't have a firm grasp on is where the money comes from.

Wang said parents need to explain to children the concept of going to work and being paid for the work; help them understand that money does not simply appear.

"It's vital for children to learn that people have to work for money. Adults go to work to earn a paycheck to pay for living expenses, cars and vacations," she said. "Children can earn money for things they want, too. Establish chores around the house and pay children an allowance for completing the chores. When children understand they must work for money, it incentivizes them to spend wisely."

Helping children understand the difference between a need and a want is another important lesson. One way to help them learn is by letting them assist with meal planning and grocery shopping. Set a limit for the shopping trip and stay within budget. Leftover funds can be set aside for something later, such as a trip to the swimming pool or the movies.

Just as spending wisely is important, so is saving. Children need to learn about short- and long-term savings goals.

"A long-term goal may be a new bicycle. If a child receives money as a gift, encourage them to save half or more to put toward their goal. Or they can sell their old bike and use that money toward a new one," Wang said. "Making money decisions is about making choices. By saving money now, that puts them closer to their goal."

As children become teenagers, parents can start introducing concepts regarding interest rates, investing and even retirement accounts. Show them that the earlier they start saving, the more money they'll have later on.

"Being financially responsible is one of the biggest lessons parents can teach their children. Parents must model the skills they want their children to learn," Wang said. "Children learn what they are shown, and financial responsibility will help them greatly throughout their lives."

OSU RODEO SENDS TWO TO COLLEGE NATIONAL FINALS RODEO

Two members of the Oklahoma State University Rodeo Team are preparing for the biggest performance of the season. Carli Hawkins and Morgan Bagnell are among the top collegiate rodeo athletes competing at the 2025 College National Finals Rodeo.

The CNFR, slated for June 15-21 in Casper, Wyoming, culminates the collegiate rodeo season. The National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association's 11 regions will be represented.

The OSU Rodeo Program is housed in the Ferguson College of Agriculture, and team members pursue a variety of degrees offered university-wide.

Hawkins, a recent applied exercise science graduate, finished her senior year as the NIRA Central Plains Region reserve champion breakaway roper. She will represent OSU Rodeo in breakaway roping during her first CNFR appearance.

Hawkins said she is excited to represent the OSU Cowboys nationally.

"I can't wait to experience the CNFR and cheer on my fellow teammate and the friends I've made throughout the NIRA," she said.

Bagnell, a biology major, concluded her freshman season as the Central Plains Region champion barrel racer. This will also mark her first CNFR appearance as she represents OSU Rodeo in barrel racing.

OSU Rodeo has provided Bagnell with a sense of community and friendship, she said. Bagnell is confident in her skills and her horses as they prepare to compete.

"I'm incredibly proud to be representing OSU Rodeo at the CNFR this year and to have the opportunity to compete on such a grand stage," Bagnell said. "My experience has been amazing, and I'm excited to see what my horses and I accomplish in Casper."

OSU TO DEMOLISH POWER PLANT BUILT IN 1948

Oklahoma State University is closing the chapter on a significant piece of campus history as demolition begins on the university's former Power Plant, constructed in 1948.

After standing for more than 65 years, the facility is being removed to make way for future development.

Demolition is expected to be completed by the end of the summer, according to Jennifer Bennett, senior construction manager.

"Once cleared, the site will be sodded and maintained as green space until a final decision is made regarding its use. While OSU's long-term campus master plan includes a new building on the site, a timeline has not yet been determined," said Bennett.

The 1948 plant, located along Hall of Fame Avenue (called McGeorge Street when the plant was constructed), has been a quiet but vital presence on campus for decades, supplying energy to academic buildings, residence halls and facilities long before modern sustainability efforts began.

OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY: CENTER FOR RESEARCH ON STEM TEACHING AND LEARNING PROVIDES HANDS-ON OPPORTUNITIES FOR K-12 TEACHERS AND STUDENTS

Oklahoma State University's Center for Research on STEM Teaching and Learning (CRSTL) has supported educators for over a decade.

The center revolves around three core pillars: research, educational outreach and teacher professional development, with the goal of uplifting STEM education - its annual K-12 STEM Teacher Conference does just that.

"I want people to see CRSTL as the go-to center when they're looking for STEM education best practices and professional development," said Dr. Jennifer Cribbs, director of CRSTL.

Dr. Cribbs explained that because of OSU's land grant status, she believes the center has a responsibility to make a difference in the state through serving communities and helping teachers and students in the classroom.

The K-12 STEM Teacher Conference, to be hosted June 13, will be a resource for Oklahoma STEM educators to find community with one another. It will bring them together to share ideas and explore practical strategies for teaching STEM subjects.

To make the most of the annual teacher conference, CRSTL hosts professional development workshops during the same week. These sessions, led by experienced faculty and fellow educators, give teachers a chance to build skills and learn new strategies in their STEM classrooms during one combined visit to OSU.

Dr. Cribbs emphasized the importance of respecting teachers' time and ensuring they gain the most value from attending CRSTL's conference and workshops.

"Our annual conference almost doubled in attendance last year," said Dr. Cribbs, "I'm proud of our faculty. I'm proud of the collaboration with teachers out in the field. It's great to see that CRSTL is growing our reputation for providing these services."

The center continues to do a remarkable job building its reputation and further extending its reach in local communities.

In recent years, CRSTL began offering student engagement camps during June to provide hands-on STEM learning experiences for kids in grades K-12. Students get to engage in concentrated subjects such as coding, aviation and engineering, intending to spark long-term interest in STEM fields and build confidence in young learners.

BORN TO PERSEVERE: PERCY'S RECOVERY AT OSU VETERINARY MEDICAL TEACHING HOSPITAL

A newborn foal named Percy, short for Perseverance, is on the road to recovery thanks to the dedicated care of the Oklahoma State University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital's Equine Internal Medicine team.

Percy arrived at the hospital on May 6, 2025, showing signs of dysmaturity and sepsis shortly after birth. The foal exhibited telltale physical features of dysmaturity - including a domed head, curled ears, silky hair coat and small size - as well as signs of systemic illness and incomplete ossification of his cuboidal bones.

"From the start, Percy showed signs that he needed intensive medical support," said Dr. Brittnee Sayler, Equine Internal Medicine resident. "He was immunocompromised and had electrolyte imbalances. His cuboidal bones - critical for proper limb development - had not fully ossified, and he required plasma transfusions, nutritional support and close monitoring."

The hospital staff placed a nasogastric tube for feeding and initiated fluid therapy, antibiotics and gastroprotectants. Percy faced additional complications, including diarrhea and an episode of colic-like symptoms, but responded well to treatment.

The well-being of students, faculty and staff is a priority at Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences.

The Department of Wellness leads several initiatives to support individuals at OSU-CHS, including the OSU Pride Works: Health and Wellness Certificate Program for employees. The program recently earned the Innovative Integration Award as a part of the annual ComPsych Health at Work Awards.

ComPsych's Health at Work Awards is an international program that recognizes organizations that prioritize employee health and well-being. The Innovative Integration Award honors organizations for exemplary holistic programs that address different dimensions of well-being, including physical, financial, social and intellectual.

For Kelsey Ashwood, employee wellness coordinator, the award represents the university's dedication to its employees.

"It is so special to be a part of the culture of care at OSU-CHS. The Health and Wellness Certificate Program came from a place of caring about our employees and wanting to create a healthier, more positive and productive workspace," Ashwood said.

The certificate program, a collaboration between the wellness and human resources departments, addresses barriers identified in the National Faculty and Staff Health Assessment from the American College Health Association. The assessment's results highlighted scheduling and time difficulties as the biggest barriers to employee participation in preexisting wellness programs.

To solve this problem, the Health and Wellness Certificate Program was implemented into employee professional development. The comprehensive program's courses occur during regular business hours on paid company time. Obtaining the certificate may also be considered in employee career paths.

Music, speeches, and laughter. Johan Schnurer bid farewell after nine years as Vice-Chancellor. "It feels a bit melancholic, to be honest. These have been fantastic years - and I will miss the people I've met here and the role in general."

"But being a vice-chancellor can sometimes be a vulnerable position in some ways, and the weekly commute comes at a cost. So, I'm also looking forward to the next, slightly freer phase of my life," says Johan Schnurer.

PACE UNIVERSITY: THE REALNESS KEY TO COMPELLED PASSCODE PRODUCTION

In his article, The 'Realness' Key to Compelled Passcode Production, published in the Journal of Criminal Law & Criminology (Vol. 115, 2025), Pace Haub Law Visiting Assistant Professor Gabriel Pell offers a novel framework for applying the Fifth Amendment's Foregone Conclusion exception to compelled passcode entry. At the heart of the article is a key question: when the government forces someone to unlock a phone, are they permissibly being compelled to produce real evidence that exists outside of their mind-or are they revealing the contents of their mind in violation of their privilege against self-incrimination?

Drawing on the "act of production" doctrine, Professor Pell argues that where the average user experiences their passcode as something that exists outside of their mind, courts can conceptualize the passcode stored within a given device or the unlocked device itself as the 'real' evidence produced through compelled passcode entry. This conceptual shift can resolve a national split in authority among courts while protecting targets from compelled revelation of mere memorized information.

[T]he government need not demonstrate pre-production knowledge of the contents of a locked device to satisfy the Foregone Conclusion exception," Professor Pell writes, challenging assumptions some courts have made about the application of this paper-based doctrine to passcodes in the digital era.

Just over a year after Trump became the first former president to be found guilty of a felony, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit heard arguments Wednesday on Trump's efforts to move his appeal of the verdict from state court to federal court.

"The federal officer is entitled to a federal forum, not to have those arguments heard in state court," attorney Jeffrey Wall told the three-judge panel.

PUSAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY: PHASE-LOCKED TIME-STRETCH OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FOR CONTRAST-ENHANCED RETINAL MICROANGIOGRAPHY

Optical coherence tomography angiography has transformed retinal vascular imaging by providing non-invasive, high-resolution visualization. However, achieving an optimal balance between field of view, resolution, and three-dimensional microvasculature contrast, particularly in deeper retinal layers, remains challenging. A phase-locked time-stretch optical coherence tomography microangiography system is developed to address these limitations with a 5-MHz A-line rate and sub-nm phase sensitivity. Utilizing a dual chirped fiber Bragg grating architecture, the swept-source laser achieves an extended coherence length of ~10 mm and a 102-nm bandwidth. A time-stretch analog-to-digital converter overcomes the limitations of conventional multi-MHz optical coherence tomography systems, ensuring a 2-mm imaging depth in the air with high spatial resolution. The proposed system enables high-contrast, depth-encoded mapping of key retinal structures, including the superficial and deep capillary plexuses and the choriocapillaris. Compared to a state-of-the-art system, the proposed approach demonstrates enhanced resolution, improved contrast, and faster imaging speeds, enhancing its potential for diagnosing and monitoring retinal and systemic diseases like age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and Alzheimer's disease.

QUEEN MARY UNIVERSITY OF LONDON: ROBOTIC HAND WITH HUMAN-LIKE TOUCH SET TO REVOLUTIONISE DEXTEROUS MANIPULATION

Researchers have unveiled a groundbreaking robotic hand, the F-TAC Hand, which integrates high-resolution tactile sensing across an unprecedented 70% of its surface area, allowing for human-like adaptive grasping. This pioneering development, set to be published in Nature Machine Intelligence today, represents a significant leap forward in robotic intelligence and its ability to interact with dynamic real-world environments.

Despite considerable progress in mimicking human hand kinematics and control algorithms, robotic systems have long struggled to match human capabilities in dynamic settings, primarily due to inadequate tactile feedback. The F-TAC Hand addresses this fundamental limitation with an exceptional 0.1 mm spatial resolution for its tactile sensors.

"The massive spatial resolution combined with the enormous coverage are truly novel and were not possible previously," commented Professor Kaspar Althoefer, Director of the Centre of Excellence Advanced Robotics at Queen Mary University of London. "Furthermore, the advanced perception algorithms significantly improve on existing approaches to better interpret the interaction with the environment, allowing for a superior understanding of the grasped object and its crucial parameters."

Foundations of a large building, believed to be part of Moira Castle and dating back to the 17th or 18th century, have been uncovered during a community archaeology dig, led by experts from Queen's, in partnership with Lisburn Museum. A group digging at an archaeology excavation in Moira

The discovery was made by an enthusiastic group of school children, community volunteers and Queen's University archaeology students, who have been working alongside Queen's archaeologists, at the site of Moira Demesne.

They are just days into the four-week dig and so far the group has found building foundations, walls and cobbles, as well as wine bottles, pottery, old coins and Neolithic flint flakes. Some of the artefacts date back to 6,000 years ago.

The excavation, which was organised by the Community Archaeology Programme Northern Ireland (CAPNI) and funded by a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, is being undertaken in partnership with Lisburn City and Castlereagh City Council.

Ruairi O Baoill from the School of Natural and Built Environment at Queen's is leading the excavation.

QUEENS UNIVERSITY BELFAST: NEW IMAGING STUDY IN DOWN SYNDROME REVEALS EYE BLOOD VESSEL CHANGES LINKED TO EARLY ALZHEIMER'S

A world-first ultrawide-field eye imaging study in adults with Down syndrome has found that abnormal blood vessels in the retinal periphery of the eye can be seen before clinical symptoms of Alzheimer's disease begin to show. Close up of human eye

The study was led by a research team from Queen's University Belfast, and the results have been published in the prestigious Journal of Alzheimer's Disease.

People with Down syndrome have a greater risk of developing Alzheimer's disease at an early age due to the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21, which can lead to an accelerated build-up of plaques in the brain.

These plaques can cause problems with how brain cells function and increase the risk of developing Alzheimer symptoms.

Due to the increasing lifespan of people with Down syndrome, the leading cause of death for this population has now become Alzheimer's disease. This makes them a patient population that will benefit from treatment trials that aim to improve their health or slow the condition from developing.

First Author on the study is Mr Jamie Mitchell, a PhD student under the supervision of the Principal Investigator on the study, Professor Imre Lengyel, a researcher from the Wellcome-Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine at Queen's University Belfast.

Professor Lengyel explains: "There is a major need for early identification of those at risk of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. The potential to use the eye as a window to the brain is an exciting and unique way to do this.

"Our study is the first clinical investigation to show that blood vessels in the retina of the eye thin more rapidly along their paths and small vessel abnormalities are present in the peripheral retina in adults with Down syndrome."

AI RETHOUGHT: RPI RESEARCHERS PROPOSE A MORE EFFECTIVE, HUMAN-LIKE APPROACH

New research from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) could help shape the future of artificial intelligence by making AI systems less resource-intensive, higher performing, and designed to emulate the human brain.

As AI models grow ever larger, so do their costs and limitations. Researchers at RPI and City University of Hong Kong offer a potential solution: instead of expanding outward with more layers and data, they propose building upward - adding internal structure that mirrors a 3D biological neural network and incorporating recursive loops to enhance network introspection. This vertical dimension and loop allow artificial neural networks to process information more effectively and efficiently, potentially transforming AI's ability to learn and adapt in 3D and higher dimensions.

"This new AI framework not only boosts efficiency but also unlocks practical opportunities," said Wang. "This research could be a crucial step toward driving advancements in next-generation artificial neural networks, closely relevant to healthcare and education, while paving the way for deeper insights into how the human brain works."

ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY: HEIDI MILLER RETIRES AFTER NEARLY 32 YEARS WITH THE PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT PROGRAM

RIT's physician assistant program celebrated its 30th graduating class this year, and now its biggest champion, former director and founder Heidi Miller, is preparing to retire at the end of June after nearly 32 years.

Miller developed the PA program and introduced a unique major focused on direct patient care.

In the late 1980s, Miller worked at Rochester General Hospital as a physician assistant specializing in emergency medicine. Her reputation for mentoring younger PAs led to an invitation to join an RIT task force considering a new major for the College of Science.

In 1993, Miller wrote the PA curriculum, prepared the program for approval, and became the program's first director. The following year, Nancy Valentage joined the program to help navigate clinical partnerships, and together they graduated the first class in 1995.

Recognition of the profession in the late 1980s and early 1990s as an accessible and affordable healthcare option gave the field, established in the mid-1960s, a boost as the next medical profession.

"RIT jumped on that," Miller said. "We were the 54th program in the country, and right now there are over 300. We were right on the cusp of a significant growth and expansion of the profession."

As the medical program gained momentum, prospective students vied for a limited number of seats. (Enrollment is tied to available training opportunities at clinical partnerships.) In 2011, the PA program helped anchor RIT's new College of Health Sciences and Technology. The college grew from a strategic partnership between RIT and Rochester Regional Health. The RIT-Rochester Regional Health Alliance, which includes Rochester General Hospital, strengthened collaborative opportunities with Miller's former employer.

ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY: PROFESSOR EMERITUS DENIS DEFIBAUGH NAMED 2025 GUGGENHEIM FELLOW

In the early 20th century, American painter Rockwell Kent made several trips to Greenland to document what he called an "earthly paradise." Nearly a century later, Denis Defibaugh felt inspired by Kent and made his own pilgrimage to the island in 2016.

Like Kent, Defibaugh fell in love with the culture and landscape of Greenland. His passion and the photos he captured helped earn him a 2025 John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship. According to the foundation, this year marks the 100th class of Guggenheim Fellows, which includes 198 individuals working across 53 disciplines. Fellows were chosen from a pool of nearly 3,500 applicants.

Defibaugh, professor emeritus in RIT's School of Photographic Arts and Sciences, explained that he has been interested in Greenland and Kent's work for as long as he can remember. During a chance meeting with the director of the Rockwell Kent Gallery and Collection, located at the SUNY Plattsburgh State Art Museum, Defibaugh came across a collection of photographs on lantern slides that Kent took during one of his visits to Greenland. Before then, Defibaugh had no idea Kent documented his visits in this way.

"When I pulled the first one out, I said 'wow, this is like a diamond.' I was so blown away by them," said Defibaugh. "Kent used the slides when he came back from Greenland to do lecture tours. Almost every lecture sold out, so he lectured until he made enough money to go back to Greenland for another year. It was a constant cycle." A woman stands in a snow covered landscape wearing traditional Greenlandic clothing ‌

After this discovery, Defibaugh planned his first trip to Greenland. He received a National Science Foundation grant to support his travel after several application attempts, and the photographs and observations he made during his 16-month stay were documented in his book North By Nuuk: Greenland After Rockwell Kent.

The Guggenheim Fellowship will enable Defibaugh to return to Greenland, continue his study of native culture, and build upon his current body of work. Defibaugh said he will return to some of the villages he saw in 2016, including Uummannaq, Nuuk, and Sisimiut, but not Illorsuit. Unfortunately, the waterside village was abandoned in 2017 after a landslide caused a megatsunami on the Karrat Fjord just two months after Defibaugh returned to the United States.

"Illorsuit was this little settlement on a beautiful, horseshoe-shaped black sand beach. On one side of the town was the fjord, and on the other was this giant black mountain. When the tsunami hit, the villagers had to evacuate and they were told they couldn't go back," said Defibaugh. "I thought a good reason for me to return to Greenland would be to see how people's lives have changed since then."

ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY: RESEARCHERS DEVELOP CYBERSECURITY TEST FOR AI BEING USED BY GOOGLE

Rochester Institute of Technology experts have created a new tool that tests artificial intelligence (AI) to see how much it really knows about cybersecurity. And the AI will be graded.

The tool, called CTIBench, is a suite of benchmarking tasks and datasets used to assess large language models (LLMs) in Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI). CTI is a crucial security process that enables security teams to proactively defend against evolving cyber threats.

The evaluation tool comes at a time when AI assistants claim to have security knowledge and companies are developing cybersecurity-specific LLMs. For example, Microsoft Copilot has an integrated security platform.

Until now, there has been no way to tell if a LLM has the capability to work as a security assistant. A headshot of a woman ‌

Nidhi Rastogi, assistant professor in the Department of Software Engineering

"Is the LLM reliable and trustworthy?" asked Nidhi Rastogi, assistant professor in RIT's Department of Software Engineering. "Can I ask it a question and expect a good answer? Will it hallucinate?"

CTIBench is the first and most comprehensive in the Cyber Threat Intelligence space. The tool is already being used by Google, Cisco, and Trend Micro.

"We should embrace using AI, but there should always be a human in the loop," said Rastogi. "That's why we are creating benchmarks-to see what these models are good at and what their capabilities are. We're not blindly following AI but smartly integrating it into our lives"."

SOUTHERN CROSS UNIVERSITY: AVANT-GARDE ARTIST ANOHNI COLLABORATES WITH SCIENTISTS TO MOURN THE GREAT BARRIER REEF

Inside the shell of the iconic Sydney Opera House, Anohni and the Johnsons' art-science performance 'Mourning the Great Barrier Reef' was less a concert and more a ceremony of witness: a requiem for the Reef, a reckoning with the Anthropocene.

Southern Cross University's Distinguished Professor Peter Harrison was among the select group of Australia's most renowned coral scientists invited to collaborate for the Vivid Festival LIVE event on May 26 and 27. MAIN IMAGE Anohni and the Johnsons performing 'Mourning the Great Barrier Reef' at the Sydney Opera House (credit Anya Salih). A group of people off-stage at a concert hall. Backstage at the Sydney Opera House: Anohni (left) with Professor Peter Harrison and Barbara Harrison, along with Mourning the Great Barrier Reef's scientific producer Dr Anya Salih and filmmaker Lynette Wallworth (credit Peter Harrison).

The musical eulogy featured underwater footage documenting recent impacts of coral bleaching at Lizard Island, located in the northern section of the Great Barrier Reef, as a backdrop to a chorus of interviews spliced between songs. Eight scientists spoke with the quiet authority of people who have watched something they love slowly die.

This past summer, the Great Barrier Reef suffered its sixth mass coral bleaching event since 2016. Before arriving in Sydney, Anohni went to Lizard Island to witness firsthand the aftermath.

Just as autumn leaves change colour before they fall or a dying star glows more brightly before it goes dark, corals looks more beautifully vibrant when in distress caused by bleaching.

"It's very emotional to see it. It looks like a war zone. There are still pockets of idyllic beauty out there. I don't think hope is where my value lies. My value lies in presence and in materiality and creativity. Those are the things that compel me," said Anonhi.

The support provided by one scholarship is having a ripple effect for mental health services in the Coffs Harbour region. With a career boosted by Southern Cross University's Student Opportunities Fund, nursing graduate John Palencia is doing vital work to support people when they need it most.

"Growing up from a culturally diverse background, I observed considerable stigma surrounding mental health," John said.

"Each day that I get to work as a Registered Nurse in mental health, I'm reminded of the responsibility I have for others and the immense privilege it is to be there for someone when they're at their most vulnerable."

While studying the Bachelor of Nursing at Southern Cross University, John received a Student Opportunities Fund scholarship which enabled him to attend the Australian College of Mental Health Nurses Conference and learn from industry leaders.

The scholarship aims to remove financial barriers for students to participate in opportunities such as placements, networking events and professional development programs.

"This scholarship not only provided me with financial support but also affirmed my passion for mental health and gave me confidence in my potential to make an impact in this field," John said.

"I am undoubtedly a better health practitioner today because of the generosity of others, and I'm grateful to be able to pay it forward through my new role as a Registered Nurse in mental health."

Welcome changes to family law come into effect this week to better support victims of domestic violence in property settlements.

Importantly, the Family Law Amendment Bill 2024 will provide a new framework for determining ownership of the family pet in divorce and separation proceedings. Pets will no longer be recognised merely as property, but as "companion animals".

Family law courts must now consider animal abuse, including threats to harm pets, when deciding which partner is awarded ownership.

Research suggests up to 15% of all animal cruelty cases involve domestic violence offending. Therefore, the new laws will provide some relief to partners whose beloved pets have suffered abuse. Part of the family

Australia has high pet ownership, with 69% of households owning an animal companion. Some 48% have dogs and 33% have cats.

For victims of violence, the bond with their pet is very important for emotional support. Because of this attachment, abusers often target animals as one of the ways to control their victims.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY SYSTEM: SIU RESEARCHERS DISCOVER INCENTIVIZED GAME SPURS ACTIVITY IN ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES

The lack of exercise is more pronounced among adults with disabilities than the general population, but a team of researchers from Southern Illinois University Carbondale is discovering that a simple game with low-cost prizes may offer solutions.

"The overreaching goal of our research is to see if we can utilize incentives in a variety of ways in conjunction with the Step It Up exercise game to make activity more attractive to people, especially those with disabilities, and get them to willingly participate," said Ryan Redner, professor and director of the behavior analysis and therapy program in the School of Psychological and Behavioral Sciences. He said the game had previously been used successfully with elementary school students, but there was little or no documentation of its use with adults, particularly adults with disabilities. Their studies are showing it is effective.

Costly problem in many ways

"The CDC tracks physical activity, and only about one-fourth of all adults get the amount they need," Redner said. "For people with disabilities, it's even worse. There are numerous proven negative health impacts when people don't get adequate physical activity, and the issue becomes systemic."

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the lack of physical activity among Americans increases their risk for a variety of health issues, including diabetes, heart disease and high blood pressure, and that adds up to $117 billion or more in health care costs each year.

The weekend of June 6-8 brought close to 200 St. Catherine University alumni back to campus for the annual Reunion celebration. Graduates from class years ending in 0 and 5 reunited and reminisced with classmates and friends, filling the air with lively conversation and laughter.

The classes of 1975 and 2000 marked their respective 50-year and 25-year Reunions with class pinnings and photos. Reunion staples like class parties and campus tours offered opportunities for alums to reconnect with classmates and revisit old stomping grounds. Friday was Evening With St. Kate's, a tradition open to alumni of all years. President Marcheta P. Evans, PhD, delivering her first "State of St. Kate's," addressed the alumni community and reflected on her first year of leadership at the University.

Other highlights of this year's Reunion included a romance-focused Conversation with Books led by two alums and a social hour for recent grads, where members of the classes of 2010, 2015, and 2020 mingled and met with President Evans. In another new event, alumni had the opportunity to record their college memories for a St. Kate's oral history that will be released as a podcast later this year (email alumni@stkate.edu with stories and ideas!). The weekend wrapped up with the longstanding Reunion tradition of Sunday Mass in Our Lady of Victory Chapel.

"We are grateful for the gift of time and memories shared with our alumni community throughout the weekend," said Lindsay Butterfield Whipple '09, director of alumni relations.

On June 7, alumni gathered for Conversation With Books, continuing the annual St. Catherine University tradition that started six decades ago. Event attendees could join in person or online via a livestream. Held during Reunion weekend, hosts and fellow alumnae Lydia Butler Fasteland '12, MLIS'17 and Taylor Harwood '15 led a discussion of a selection of romance books through an intersectional feminist lens.

In their presentation, Fasteland and Harwood took audience members through an overview of romance as a genre. They provided examples of the different tropes and themes that featured in the five novels selected for the event, particularly women's pursuit of goals specific to their characters and backgrounds.

The hosts shared their personal ratings, as romance genre connoisseurs, of each of the books, but also emphasized the influence of a reader's background in how they experience literature. For that reason, seeing personal experiences reflected in novels, including romance, can have a powerful impact on readers.

Special guest President Marcheta P. Evans, PhD, underscored representation in novels as a way for readers to emotionally connect with and feel understood by the books they read. She relayed her connection to Beverly Jenkins' historical romance Forbidden through lived experiences with colorism as an African American woman. Her and her family members' experiences allowed her to connect to one character's dilemma between the benefits of being "white passing," such as power and influence, and his desire to be part of a supportive African American community.

"Being a counselor, that [representation] was important to me," said Evans. "When you're reading these books, and you find that thing, that thread - it really connects based on your experiences."

STANFORD UNIVERSITY WHITE PAPER FINDS U.S. UTILITIES LAGGING ON WILDFIRE PREPAREDNESS

Evidence suggests that several of the catastrophic wildfires that struck Los Angeles earlier this year may have been sparked by electric utility infrastructure. As utilities prepare for record infrastructure demand driven by electrification, data centers, and renewables, the cost of inaction in the face of rising wildfire risk is mounting. Wildfires can cause billions of dollars in damages to communities, bankrupt utilities, and ultimately drive up rates for customers. A new report from Stanford University's Climate and Energy Policy Program (CEPP) offers a clearer view of where risk is greatest - and where mitigation is falling short.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY: ROB JACKSON AWARDED BLUE PLANET PRIZE FOR PIONEERING CLIMATE RESEARCH

Stanford climate scientist Rob Jackson has been jointly awarded the 2025 Blue Planet Prize for his contributions to measure and reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases. The award, which comes with $500,000, recognizes individuals or organizations whose work has significantly advanced solutions to pressing environmental problems.

"Like freedom and equality, environmental progress and a safe climate are at risk. The Blue Planet Prize is both reminder and call to action, and I am grateful for it," said Jackson, the Michelle and Kevin Douglas Provostial Professor of Earth System Science in the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability.

Jackson is internationally recognized for his research on the carbon cycle in terrestrial ecosystems, including forests, grasslands, and wetlands. His studies have illuminated the complex relationships among soil, vegetation, and microbial communities, and have quantified the greenhouse gas balance in both natural environments and those affected by fossil fuel use.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY: NEW STUDY WARNS OF RISKS IN AI MENTAL HEALTH TOOLS

Therapy is a well-tested approach to helping people with mental health challenges, yet research shows that nearly 50 percent of individuals who could benefit from therapeutic services are unable to reach them.

Low-cost and accessible AI therapy chatbots powered by large language models have been touted as one way to meet the need. But new research from Stanford University shows that these tools can introduce biases and failures that could result in dangerous consequences. The paper will be presented at the ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency this month.

"LLM-based systems are being used as companions, confidants, and therapists, and some people see real benefits," said Nick Haber, an assistant professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Education, affiliate of the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI, and senior author on the new study. "But we find significant risks, and I think it's important to lay out the more safety-critical aspects of therapy and to talk about some of these fundamental differences."

Researchers have identified a shipwreck off Porkkala in the Gulf of Finland as the warship Falken. The ship was built for King Gustav II Adolf and was later used under Queen Kristina. It played a central role in the Swedish navy - both in combat and for transporting high-ranking people.

The ship was a so-called pinnace and looked a lot like a small version of the warship Vasa. It had three masts, conspicuous sculpted decoration, a long galleon in the bow and cannon ports along the sides. However, the Falcon was smaller than Vasa, about 35 meters long from bow to stern and equipped with between 16 and 20 guns depending on the mission. The Falcon is the best-preserved example of a royal pinnace, a fast, comfortable and lavish little ship.

The wreck was discovered in 1974 and has so far been known as Varmbadan or Uunihylky. Despite previous research, the ship's identity has been unclear until now.

The scientists assert that the 2021 OECD definition, developed through a transparent, peer-reviewed process involving academia, regulators, and industry, is chemically unambiguous and well-suited to PFASs. It is based on molecular structure and does not prescribe how these chemicals should be regulated.

"The OECD definition identifies PFASs based solely on intrinsic molecular features," the authors write, "and provides a clear scientific basis for determining which substances belong in this group."

The commentary addresses proposals-particularly one supported by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), a global authority on chemical terminology-to redefine PFASs more narrowly. This approach could exclude certain subgroups such as fluorinated gases, polymers, and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), which are included under the OECD definition based on their molecular structure. The authors caution that narrowing the scope in this way-potentially based on use or toxicity rather than chemical structure-may be politically or economically motivated and could lead to regulatory confusion and weaker protections. portait of a grey haired man Professor Ian Cousins.

"The current OCED definition of PFASs is simple and elegant: any chemical which has a fully fluorinated carbon is qualified as a PFAS," says Professor Cousins. "Those advocating redefinition of PFASs under IUPAC's authority are intentionally blurring the line between the OECD's clear chemical definition and the varied regulatory scopes and definitions around the world."

"Sure! My research explores how traditional companies, such as banks and insurance firms, can succeed with digital transformation. These organizations are under pressure from fast-moving digital competitors and shifting customer expectations. Many assume that going digital just means launching new apps or systems. But the real challenge lies in how decisions are made, who is involved, and how teams collaborate. I studied how IT governance, which includes the structures, processes, and relationships for managing digital resources and risks, can help companies strike the right balance between control and flexibility. This balance is key to driving innovation while staying secure and performing well." What are the implications of your research results?

"I focused on large banks and insurance companies in Indonesia, but my findings can also help other organizations that operate in complex, regulated environments and are going through digital change. I identified seven key IT governance mechanisms and showed how they influence digital transformation and performance.

In 2023, this imbalance reached a new record high, twice that of the IPCC best estimate. Improved understanding and monitoring are urgently needed. Book cover.

Global warming is caused by the imbalance between the incoming radiation from the Sun and the reflected and outgoing infrared radiation from the Earth. The imbalance leads to energy accumulation in the atmosphere, oceans and land, and melting of the cryosphere, resulting in increasing temperatures, rising sea levels, and more extreme weather around the globe according the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

A new study on this topic written by a large international author team lead by Thorsten Mauritsen with participation by Linde Megner and Frida Bender from the Department of Meteorology at Stockholm University was recently published in AGU Advances.

- We need to closely keep track of the imbalance because it tells us how far we are from stabilising our climate, says Thorsten Mauritsen.

STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY: PUBLICLY FUNDED RESEARCH SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL

Hi, Robert Ohlsson! Can you tell us a bit about yourself and your research?

- I am a senior lecturer in education and an associate professor at the Department of Education at Stockholm University. I have a background in psychology, and my research focuses on mental health - how we talk about and make sense of psychological wellbeing and distress. In previous projects, I have studied self-help groups and media representations of mental illness. That led me to questions about the brain and how neuroscience influences our ideas about the mind. What is your article about?

- The article examines how scientific knowledge about the brain is communicated to a wider public through the media - in this case, the newspaper Svenska Dagbladet over the course of one year. I'm particularly interested in the implications this has for how we think about ourselves, about diagnoses, treatments, and the human psyche. Why did you choose to publish in SU Dynamica?

- I discovered SU Dynamica through the university's website and was really pleased that Stockholm University has its own open access platform. It's free to publish, and all submissions undergo peer review. Another benefit was the flexibility regarding article length - which is especially important in qualitative studies where findings are often presented in more detail.

STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY: READY FOR THE NEXT STEP AFTER THE DISCOVERY OF THE HIGGS PARTICLE

The next major upgrade of LHC is scheduled for 2026. In a basement lab on the AlbaNova university campus, some of the approximately one thousand circuit boards that will help increase precision are being tested. The upgrade will take nearly four years, after which researchers will be able to collect ten times more data per second than at present. The goal is to recreate what happened during the first picoseconds after the Big Bang.

Sara Strandberg heads research at Stockholm University under the auspices of the Atlas experiment at LHC.

"After the upgrade it will be possible to measure properties of the Higgs particle that are still unknown. We will also be able to gain a deeper understanding of the process in the early universe when elementary particles acquired their mass."

STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY: TESTING AND DESIGNING MATERIALS TO PERFORM BETTER UNDER STRESS

Nuclear fusion, the same process that fuels the sun and stars, has the potential to generate electricity on earth without producing carbon emissions and long-lasting nuclear waste. Central to nuclear fusion's success is the development of new materials that can withstand the extreme temperature, mechanical stress and damage from intense neutrons. Novel metal alloys and ceramic composites are coming into view as potential game changers, with researchers now attempting to understand how these materials can benefit fusion reactor designs.

David Sprouster, assistant professor in the Department of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering at Stony Brook University, has a number of ongoing research projects that are tackling the materials science and engineering challenges associated with new materials for fusion energy.

"My research is really about stress testing these different materials to see how we can improve their function when exposed to different combinations of extremes," said Sprouster. "It's also fun to design them, to fabricate them in the lab, and then to break them."

At Penn State, a survey released in 2023 indicated that of 17,000 students who responded, 14% reported that they had not eaten for an entire day in the previous month due to lack of funds.

A student-run organization founded in 2014, the Lion's Pantry advocates for the health and well-being of Penn State students, faculty and staff. In addition to shelf stable foods, the Pantry offers access to personal care items - all at zero cost to anyone with a Penn State ID. Resources are available at the organization's flagship location on Bluebell Road on the northern edge of the University Park campus.

For the student leaders of the Lion's Pantry, the focus is on providing a much-needed resource to their peers while reducing the stigma of food insecurity. Apart from a small stipend provided by the Penn State Student Fee Board, all the pantry's offerings are acquired through fundraising and donations.

Penn State's Office of Physical Plant (OPP) recently issued its annual Drinking Water Quality Report for University Park. OPP routinely monitors the University's drinking water and the full report can be viewed on the OPP website.

Drinking water for the campus is produced at the University Water Treatment Plant, where the water undergoes microfiltration, granular activated carbon adsorption and nanofiltration treatment to produce drinking water of the highest quality for the campus. Water sampling required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is conducted at the Water Treatment Plant and throughout the water distribution system in the interest of community safety and regulatory compliance.

The Penn State potable water system passed state and federal standards last year with no violations on the water quality. However, the University did receive one failure to monitor violation due to sampling for Gross Beta Particle Activity occurring outside the allowable timeframe. This violation was corrected in coordination with DEP and the required sample was taken 16 days after the allowable timeframe. At no time was the quality of the drinking water compromised. Once the sample was taken the violation was deemed corrected by DEP.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY: STRANGE RADIO PULSES DETECTED COMING FROM ICE IN ANTARCTICA

A cosmic particle detector in Antarctica has emitted a series of bizarre signals that defy the current understanding of particle physics, according to an international research group that includes scientists from Penn State. The unusual radio pulses were detected by the Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA) experiment, a range of instruments flown on balloons high above Antarctica that are designed to detect radio waves from cosmic rays hitting the atmosphere.

The goal of the experiment is to gain insight into distant cosmic events by analyzing signals that reach the Earth. Rather than reflecting off the ice, the signals - a form of radio waves - appeared to be coming from below the horizon, an orientation that cannot be explained by the current understanding of particle physics and may hint at new types of particles or interactions previously unknown to science, the team said.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY: EIGHT PENN STATE RESEARCH COMMERCIALIZATION PROJECTS AWARDED GAP FUNDING

Eight research projects have been selected for support from the Penn State Commercialization GAP Fund. The GAP Fund is a competitive internal program designed to help promising technologies bridge the gap between academic research and industry adoption.

Funded by the Penn State Research Foundation and administered by the Office of Technology Transfer (OTT), the GAP Fund is the University's only institution-wide initiative focused on identifying and accelerating high-potential technologies while they are still within the academic environment.

While government and university grants often fund fundamental discoveries, they may not support the crucial next steps needed to turn those discoveries into viable products, leaving a gap between academic research and a successful transition into industry. Conversely, industry investment typically occurs only after a technology has been sufficiently validated and de-risked, or assessed and adjusted to prevent potential financial loss. This creates a critical funding and development gap - where proof of concept, prototyping and early-stage validation must occur but often lack financial backing. The GAP fund addresses this challenge by providing targeted support to take the steps to de-risk promising technologies, elevate their technology readiness levels and position them for successful transition to industry.

UChicago research shows current practices may have long-lasting consequences for the digestive tract Fecal microbiota transplants have been touted as a potential treatment for a range of conditions, from inflammatory bowel diseases and obesity to type 2 diabetes and autism.

But new research from the University of Chicago cautions the most commonly used technique for such transplants may cause long-lasting, unintended health consequences.

The process involves transferring microbes in the stool from a healthy person to a sick one, in hopes of restoring a healthy equilibrium in the gut microbiome. However, different parts of the digestive system have different environments and needs, and the transplant method may wind up adding microbes to the wrong parts of the system.

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH MOLECULE FIND COULD PAVE WAY FOR NEW MND DRUGS

The molecule - called lipoamide - can prevent the formation of liquid droplet structures inside cells that are linked with MND, a fatal disease with few treatment options, researchers say.

While the research is at an early stage, exploring ways of targeting this cell process could lead to new medicines to help prevent or reverse effects of the disease, the team says.

Investigating new treatments for MND is important, as most people die within two years of their diagnosis and none of the small number of approved medicines for the disease stop it from progressing, they add.

Cell structures The findings were made by a large international team led by researchers from the University of Edinburgh and the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics.

They discovered lipoamide's effects after screening 1,600 molecules to identify those affecting the formation of liquid droplets - known as stress granules - in cells.

Build-up of solid clumps of proteins inside stress granules - which normally only form briefly when cells are under stress - is one of the hallmarks of several neurodegenerative diseases, including MND.

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH SIGNIFICANT GAPS IN TESTING FOR GENETIC CANCER RISK, STUDY FINDS

Despite NHS guidance, less than half of those eligible received a blood test for Lynch syndrome, an inherited condition that leaves individuals more susceptible to womb and bowel cancer.

Diagnosis of Lynch syndrome is important as it enables patients to take action to reduce their cancer risk, improving outcomes and reducing NHS costs, experts say.

Genetic risk Lynch syndrome affects one in 300 people, but as little as five per cent are aware they have it.

The condition is caused by genetic variants - small changes in DNA - similar to the BRCA genetic variants that increase breast cancer risk. Those with Lynch syndrome have a 50 per cent chance of developing womb cancer in their lifetime, compared to a general population risk of three per cent.

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends that all patients diagnosed with womb or bowel cancer have tumours tested for markers of Lynch syndrome. If identified, they should be referred for genetic counselling to access support and advice and a simple blood test to confirm the diagnosis.

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH BOWEL CANCER CELLS MIMIC SKIN TO SPREAD DISEASE

Researchers found that cancer cells from some aggressive forms of bowel cancer lost their identity and resembled cells from other parts of the body.

This "shapeshifting" ability of cancer cells to change form, known as cellular plasticity, is an important element in bowel cancer metastasis - when it spreads to other parts of the body and becomes harder to treat, experts say.

It is hoped that by identifying this crucial process and preventing it from occurring scientists could help make current treatments for aggressive bowel cancer more effective and prevent the disease from spreading.

Rising threat Bowel cancer kills 16,800 people in the UK every year and is increasingly being diagnosed in younger people.

A recent study showed early-onset bowel cancer rates in adults aged 25-49 are rising in 27 of 50 countries studied and are growing faster in young women in Scotland and England than in young men.

Adaptive cells The study, led by researchers from the University of Edinburgh and the Cancer Research UK Scotland Centre, examined a particular gene called Atrx which was already associated with aggressive forms of bowel cancer.

Preckler is the founder of Brickbro, a technology platform specialising in the sale and rental of commercial property.

The lecturer from the Faculty of Communication Sciences opened this congress, held in Seville on 5 and 6 June, which brought together producers and professionals from the fields of audio, journalism and communication.

Her opening speech focused on the potential uses of generative Artificial Intelligence in podcast production - one of the hottest topics in the sector today - and drew on a comparative study published by Dr Maria Fito in the magazine Comunicacion y Hombre, analysing the most widely used podcasting software in 2024.

"As in all fields, podcasting is taking advantage of the benefits of Artificial Intelligence to streamline the work of creators. The question is with what level of quality and precision, and whether it might eventually 'weaken' our human capabilities from lack of use," said the lecturer in an interview with the organisers of the Prosodia congress.

More than 200 professionals gathered to discuss the future of podcasting at the Cajasol Foundation in Seville for the third edition of this congress, which was previously held in Malaga. Maria Fito's speech marked the beginning of a series of talks on topics such as podcast monetisation, journalistic ethics, legislation, and intellectual property rights.

Every surfer, fisher, and waterperson in Santa Cruz knows this situation well: When strong winds blow across the ocean, the water quickly turns icy for a few days.

But something peculiar happens in the northern reaches of Monterey Bay when those wind-whipped cold, deep waters well up to meet warmer coastal currents.

One of the biggest mysteries of evolution is how species first developed complex vision. Jellyfish are helping scientists solve this puzzle, as the group has independently evolved eyes at least nine separate times. Different species of jellyfish have strikingly different types of vision, from simple eyespots that detect light intensity to sophisticated lens eyes similar to those in humans.

Biologists have studied jellyfish eye structure, light sensitivity, and visual behavior for decades, but the exact genes involved in jellyfish eye formation remain unknown. Aide Macias-MuNoz, a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, is exploring how eyes and light detection evolved using genetic tools.

UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE: ZINC-IODINE BATTERY WITH OUTSTANDING STABILITY NOW A REALITY

"We have developed a new electrode technique for zinc-iodine batteries that avoids traditional wet mixing of iodine," said the University of Adelaide's Professor Shizhang Qiao, Chair of Nanotechnology, and Director, Centre for Materials in Energy and Catalysis, at the School of Chemical Engineering, who led the team.

"We mixed active materials as dry powders and rolled them into thick, self-supporting electrodes.

"At the same time, we added a small amount of a simple chemical, called 1,3,5-trioxane, to the electrolyte, which turns into a flexible protective film on the zinc surface during charging.

"This film keeps zinc from forming sharp dendrites - needle-like structures that can form on the surface of the zinc anode during charging and discharging - that can short the battery."

Aqueous zinc-iodine batteries offer unparalleled safety, sustainability, and cost advantages for grid-scale storage, but they suffer from performance issues compared to lithium-ion batteries.

Astronomers have surveyed massive, dense star factories, unlike any found in the Milky Way, in a large number of galaxies across the local universe. The findings provide a rare glimpse into processes shaping galaxies in the very early universe and possibly the Milky Way a few billion years from now.

Known as luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies, or LIRGs and ULIRGs, these galaxies are relatively rare in the local universe, with only 202 known within 400 megaparsecs (1.3 billion light-years) from Earth, according to Sean Linden, a research associate at the University of Arizona Steward Observatory, who presented the findings during a press briefing at the 246th meeting of the American Astronomical Society on June 11.

LIRGs and ULIRGs differ from spiral galaxies like the Milky Way in that they are in the process of merging with other galaxies. Most exhibit features such as two galactic nuclei instead of one or extended "tails" as gravity stretches and deforms the two objects. And unlike "modern" galaxies, they contain "clumps" - dense regions brimming with newborn stars, much more massive than anything found in "typical," evolved galaxies that are not undergoing mergers.

UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA DECIPHERING THE BEHAVIOUR OF HEAVY PARTICLES IN THE HOTTEST MATTER IN THE UNIVERSE

The authors have published a comprehensive review exploring how particles containing heavy quarks (known as charm and bottom hadrons) interact in a hot, dense environment called hadronic matter. This environment is created in the last phase of high-energy collisions of atomic nuclei, such as those taking place at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The new study highlights the importance of including hadronic interactions in simulations, in order to accurately interpret the data from experiments in these large scientific infrastructures.

The new research broadens the perspective on how matter behaves under extreme conditions and helps to solve some of the great unknowns about the origin of the universe.

Reproducing the primordial universe

When two atomic nuclei collide at speeds close to the speed of light, they generate temperatures more than a hundred thousand times higher than those of the center of the Sun. As this plasma cools, it transforms into hadronic matter, a phase composed of particles such as protons and neutrons, as well as other baryons and mesons.

The study focuses on what happens to the heavy-tasting hadrons (particles that contain charm or background quarks, such as the D and B mesons) during this transition and the expansion of the hadron phase that follows it.

UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS ORGANIC PRODUCTION IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA

This is one of the most outstanding conclusions of an article published in the journal Progress in Oceanography whose main authors are Julia Crespin and Miquel Canals, from the Faculty of Earth Sciences of the University of Barcelona, and Jordi Sole, from the Institute of Marine Sciences (ICM-CSIC) in Barcelona and the Center for Ecological Research and Forestry Applications (CREAF). The experts Miquel Canals and Jordi Sole are directors and members, respectively, of the UB Chair in Sustainable Blue Economy.

The primary production of the oceans consists of the synthesis of organic matter by photosynthetic organisms (phytoplankton), which capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and release oxygen (O2). The effect of the persistent displacement of the jet stream on primary production could affect fisheries and local and regional economies in the medium and long term. Reduced primary production can also alter the carbon cycle in the ocean - less phytoplankton means less CO uptake2 on the part of the ocean-and this could accentuate the effects of climate change.

This research is pioneering in establishing a systematic connection between the northward displacement of the subtropical jet stream and the decrease in marine primary production. Apart from the biological impact, the authors warn that the modification of wind patterns could also alter the surface and subsurface temperature of marine waters in the medium and long term -among other parameters- and significantly change the oceanographic dynamics of the northwestern Mediterranean.

"The glaciers on the Hurd Peninsula have only varied a few hundred meters in the last 4,000 years; unlike in other areas of the polar regions, where ice retreat has been accelerated, in this sector it is a fairly relative retreat," explains Oliva. The researcher stresses that the research is especially interesting for the Spanish scientific community, as it studies the territory where the Juan Carlos I base is located. flora, fauna or the history of the climate," he points out.

The study points to a thinning of the ice sheet, probably before the period known as the Last Glacial Maximum, about 30,000 years ago, and that the deglaciation process accelerated between about 20,000 and 13,000 years ago. After that, the Hurd Peninsula ice cap may have remained relatively stable, with minor oscillations in ice masses, until the mid-Holocene, when neoglacial advances occurred (between 4,000 and 4,500 years ago).

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA DAVIS: TODDLERS EYE MOVEMENTS PREDICT ABILITY TO JUDGE MEMORIES, NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS

The simple act of looking and comparing may be the first step toward learning how to judge what we remember, a skill that is fundamental to learning and making decisions.

New research from the University of California, Davis, has found that toddlers who tend to look more closely at and compare paired images during a memory task are more aware of the accuracy of their own memories a year later. This finding connects the earliest process of seeking information with the developing ability to judge the accuracy of memories.

"Although little kids are not necessarily aware about what they are doing when they look at objects, the practice of collecting and evaluating information while trying to make a decision may provide the foundation for the development of memory-introspection skills over time," said lead author Simona Ghetti, a professor of psychology in the College of Letters and Science and Center for Mind and Brain.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE: Q&A: UCR EXPERTS WEIGH-IN ON CRITICAL RACE THEORY LITIGATION

California appeals court has temporarily blocked the Temecula Valley Unified School District's controversial ban on critical race theory (CRT), ruling the policy is unconstitutionally vague and could silence educators. The decision halts enforcement of the district's Resolution 21 policy, which was approved in late 2022, pending the outcome of a lawsuit that seeks to nullify the ban.

CRT is an academic framework that explores how systemic racism shapes legal and social structures in the United States, and it has become a flashpoint in school policy debates. Supporters argue it helps students understand historical and contemporary inequalities; opponents claim it promotes division and assigns blame based on race.

Uma Jayakumar and Rita Kohli Uma Jayakumar and Rita Kohli

The legal fight in Temecula, Calif., gained statewide attention not only for its implications on curriculum, but also because it set off a wave of similar bans in other districts. Two UC Riverside scholars-associate professors Uma M. Jayakumar and professor Rita Kohli-served as expert witnesses for the plaintiffs, drawing from their extensive research on race, education, and equity.

In this Q&A, we ask Jayakumar and Kohli, both from UCR's School of Education, to help us understand what's at stake, how the court's decision could shape education statewide, and why they believe clear, evidence-based policy matters in public schools.

Question: You both served as expert witnesses in the lawsuit challenging the Temecula Valley school board's resolution. What key points did you present to the court?

Uma Jayakumar: In my declaration, I focused on how Resolution 21 fosters a race-evasive educational environment that censors discussion of systemic racism and racial violence. This harms students of color and undermines critical developmental outcomes for all students. I also drew from joint research that Rita Kohli and I co-authored, including our national study of K-12 educators and teacher educators who described chilling effects, surveillance, and burnout stemming from CRT bans. These bans create fear-based climates where inclusive and honest teaching is punished, and that is deeply damaging to educational quality and racial equity.

Rita Kohli: Our declaration also drew on our broader body of research on teachers of color, showing how policies like Resolution 21 intensify racial stress and professional vulnerability, pushing educators of color out and further isolating those who remain. Considering the overrepresentation of white teachers across California, we pointed to how this not only harms teachers of color but deprives students of educators who reflect and affirm their communities.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE: LINK AMONG RACIAL IDENTITY, GPAS, ALCOHOL USE STUDIED

For many students of color, adjusting to college means navigating unfamiliar academic and social settings, often while also managing stress borne from experiences relating to race.

A UC Riverside study, which appeared in the journal Race and Social Problems, sought to better understand their experiences, to find what helped students to be more successful academically and what influenced maladaptive behaviors such as alcohol consumption.

The 2025 study found that female students of color who reported more exploration of their ethnic-racial identity also held higher GPAs. Male students of color who said they had more frequent positive conversations about race also held higher GPAs, while those who reported more frequent negative conversations about race reported more alcohol use.

"These findings suggest that the way that we're talking about race is important," said Diamond Bravo, a UCR assistant professor of developmental psychology and the paper's lead author. "Conversations about race are significant, and we should be thinking about them as developmental necessities."

The study drew from over 1,000 racially diverse college students between the ages of 18 and 22. Researchers assessed whether exploring ethnic-racial identity, along with the frequency of positive and negative conversations about race, affected students' GPAs and alcohol use. The study revealed gender-specific patterns that may help tailor programming to help students succeed.

During embryonic development, thousands of cells divide and move collectively, sculpting the main body axes from an initially symmetric ensemble of cells. Understanding the mechanisms that coordinate this collective behavior remains a significant challenge in biology and the physics of living systems, but a better understanding could have implications in health and science, from medicine to biomaterials.

Now researchers have discovered that avian embryos - established models for studying human development - control their size and shape using modular, independent physical mechanisms.

Clarifying the modular mechanisms that regulate the emergent embryo geometry (size and shape) helps further our understanding of the evolutionary plasticity of natural embryos and suggests strategies for engineering synthetic ones.

UC SAN DIEGO RESEARCHERS FIND EVIDENCE OF ACCELERATED AGING IN CHILDREN WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

Researchers from University of California San Diego School of Medicine have discovered that children living with multiple sclerosis (MS) show signs of accelerated biological aging, even in their teenage years. The research published online recently in Neurology(Registered), the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, is the first to examine whether MS causes early aging in a pediatric population - offering new insight into the disease and its long-term progression.

"We found evidence that children living with MS experience accelerated biological aging," said Jennifer S. Graves, M.D., Ph.D., senior author of the study, professor and vice chair of neurosciences and division chief of neuroimmunology at UC San Diego. "Compared to young people without MS, youth with MS had evidence of accelerated epigenetic age, a measurement of DNA chemical modifications associated with aging. We know that aging is related to the development of a less treatable form of MS and that adults with MS face both normal aging and accelerated aging from the disease."

MS is a lifelong autoimmune disease that attacks the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves. The research team used DNA methylation markers - molecular changes that indicate biological age - to analyze blood samples from 125 children with MS and 145 children without MS. In contrast to chronological age, which reflects the number of birthdays, biological age tracks how quickly the body is wearing down on a cellular level.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO LAYING THE GROUNDWORK FOR POTENTIAL AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION THERAPIES

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a major cause of blindness, especially in older adults. A key feature of early AMD is the formation of drusen, clumps of debris made of lipids and proteins that collect between two layers at the back of the eye - the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and Bruch's membrane (BrM).

These drusen are not just signs of the disease; they actively contribute to vision loss by damaging the retina above them. Scientists suspect that lipoproteins - fat-protein complexes like high density lipoprotein (HDL) - play a big role in forming drusen. However, it wasn't clear why these lipoproteins get stuck in BrM in the first place.

This study, published today in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) and led by Christopher B. Toomey, M.D., Ph.D., an assistant professor at the Viterbi Family Department of Ophthalmology, Shiley Eye Institute, UC San Diego School of Medicine, suggests that heparan sulfate (HS) in BrM is a major player in early AMD by trapping lipoproteins and kickstarting drusen formation. Targeting this sticky interaction might be a way to prevent or even reverse early signs of AMD before vision loss occurs.

REIMAGINING RFID: UC SAN DIEGO RESEARCHERS DEVELOP AWARD-WINNING REAL-TIME, BATTERY-FREE SENSORS

What if the same RFID "smart barcode" tags used to track packages and retail inventory could also detect changes in the real world-like temperature, pressure or weight-without batteries or added hardware?

That idea's now a reality, thanks to a team of researchers out of UC San Diego's Center for Wireless Communications (CWC) and Qualcomm Institute who have developed a robust and realtime RFID-based passive sensing system, i.e. a technique that can measure naturally occurring phenomena using harvested radio frequency (RF) energy. Ishan Bansal, a second-year master's student in computer engineering, and Dinesh Bharadia, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at the Jacobs School of Engineering, are spearheading the charge with a new paper.

Named SenSync, the software-based innovation recently earned the Best Paper Award at the 2025 IEEE RFID Conference, a top RFID-centric event for academics and industry alike. A travel grant from the National Science Foundation funded the team's attendance at the conference.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY EXPANDS DICTIONARY OF HUMAN METABOLISM

Human metabolism is a complex web of chemical processes and interactions between our cells and the microbes living within us. The more scientists can identify and classify the molecules involved in our metabolism, called metabolites, the more we can learn about human health and disease. Now, researchers at University of California San Diego have made a major advance in our understanding of human metabolism by describing hundreds of new N-acyl lipids, a type of molecule involved in immune and stress responses.

The main findings of the study, published in Cell, were:

The researchers identified 851 distinct N-acyl lipids across various tissues and biofluids, 777 of which had never been documented before. Many of these new metabolites may originate from human gut microbes. The distribution pattern of these molecules varies based on diet, microbial colonization, and in people with diseases that impact the microbiome, such as diabetes. "Metabolites are the language that the body uses to communicate with itself and with our microbiome, and studying them can offer significant insight into the role of microbial metabolism in health and disease," said senior author Pieter Dorrestein, Ph.D., professor at UC San Diego Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences and Departments of Pharmacology and Pediatrics at UC San Diego School of Medicine. "It's like we've added hundreds of new words to the metabolic dictionary."

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO UNDERWATER MICROPHONES CAPTURE 15 YEARS OF OCEAN CHANGE

Scientists from Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego were able to 'hear' the impacts of a marine heatwave and even economic slowdowns by analyzing 15 years of ocean sounds recorded off the coast of Southern California. The recordings, collected between 2008 and 2023, allowed researchers to hear whales moving north in response to a marine heatwave that began in 2014 as well as the massive decrease in noise from container ships during the 2008 financial crisis.

The findings, published June 5 in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, show that listening to the sea can be a tool for monitoring ocean ecosystems and even human economic activity.

Sound travels far and fast in the ocean. The loud, low-frequency songs of giant whales can be heard up to 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) away, and sound travels roughly four times faster in seawater than in air. This is why whales evolved to use their voices to communicate underwater. Unfortunately, human activities, such as global shipping, are also filling the oceans with noise that can make it harder for whales to communicate.

Anew cancer treatment discovered by the University of California San Diego Sanford Stem Cell Institute (SSCI) and developed by Aspera Biomedicines will undergo testing in outer space this spring - this as researchers prepare to launch a clinical trial of the drug on Earth.

Rebecsinib, an investigational cancer drug slated to begin a Phase 1 clinical trial this year for patients with high-risk myelofibrosis or secondary acute myeloid leukemia, will be tested aboard the International Space Station (ISS) on four of the deadliest cancer types: ovarian cancer, metastatic breast cancer, acute myeloid leukemia and glioblastoma multiforme.

Rebecsinib targets ADAR1, a gene known to drive cancer progression and drug resistance. On prior space missions, the drug showed the ability to halt the growth of cancer organoids, miniature versions of cancerous tumors, offering hope that it could stop disease recurrence and metastasis - thought to be the primary cause of cancer deaths. Rebecsinib holds promise for fighting 20 types of cancer, including triple-negative breast cancer, leukemia and any cancer that involves the gene ADAR1 in its development and progression.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO NEW COOLING TECH COULD CURB DATA CENTERS' RISING ENERGY DEMANDS

Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a new cooling technology that could significantly improve the energy efficiency of data centers and high-powered electronics. The technology features a specially engineered fiber membrane that passively removes heat through evaporation. It offers a promising alternative to traditional cooling systems like fans, heat sinks and liquid pumps. It could also reduce the water use associated with many current cooling systems.

The advance is detailed in a paper published on June 13 in the journal Joule.

As artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing continue to expand, the demand for data processing-and the heat it generates-is skyrocketing. Currently, cooling accounts for up to 40% of a data center's total energy use. If trends continue, global energy use for cooling could more than double by 2030.

The new evaporative cooling technology could help curb that trend. It uses a low-cost fiber membrane with a network of tiny, interconnected pores that draw cooling liquid across its surface using capillary action. As the liquid evaporates, it efficiently removes heat from the electronics underneath-no extra energy required. The membrane sits on top of microchannels above the electronics, pulling in liquid that flows through the channels and efficiently dissipating heat.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO STUDY UNLOCKS SOFT CORALS' BIOMEDICAL POTENTIAL

Some corals produce chemicals called diterpenoids that have shown promise in fighting cancer and reducing inflammation, but researchers have been unable to study the chemicals in depth.

The problem is that the chemicals are produced in tiny amounts by slow-growing and uncommon corals, making it environmentally destructive and impractical to supply enough of the compounds to test or produce new drugs.

Now, a new study led by scientists at UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography may finally unlock these corals' chemical potential. The study found a cluster of five genes responsible for the production of diterpenoids across multiple species of a type of coral called octocorals. Discovering this gene cluster enables biochemists to produce the octocoral compounds in the lab and investigate their potential as medicines or other products. The research, published today in Nature Chemical Biology, was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Science Foundation and NOAA.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SANTA BARBARA TRUST IN PEACEKEEPERS LINKED TO REDUCED VIOLENCE

What does peace look like in places where violence is part of daily life?

For UC Santa Barbara political scientist William Nomikos, the answer starts small: with a sense of trust in the peacekeepers who serve their communities.

"Peacekeepers were more effective when communities viewed them as impartial," Nomikos said. "That perception changed how people behaved. It gave them confidence that disputes could be resolved fairly, and that reduced violence."

Nomikos, who directs the Data-driven Analysis of Peace Project (DAPP) lab at UCSB, studies international interventions in fragile settings, particularly where local conflicts are shaped by climate stress, weak institutions and communal divisions. His new book, "Local Peace, International Builders: How the UN Builds Peace from the Bottom Up" (Cambridge University Press, 2025), makes the case that United Nations peacekeepers are most successful not through force or presence alone, but by earning the trust of the people they aim to protect.

Rocio Curiel's life has been shaped by language. When she emigrated to the United States from Baja California, Mexico as a 12-year-old girl who did not speak English, it was a source of anxiety and struggle. As she adjusted to life and school in America, her parents' familiar Mixtec dialect kept her connected to her roots; discovering linguistics in college helped her blossom into a serious scholar who will pursue a Ph.D. in the field.

Now, Curiel will graduate from UC Santa Barbara - leading the student procession for the Humanities & Fine Arts ceremony on Sunday, June 15, at 4 p.m. - as a double major in linguistics and Spanish. She is next headed to UCLA for graduate school.

Though her drive to learn has never wavered, the path to a four-year college wasn't always so clear. She grew up in a family of migrant farmworkers, picking berries in the fields before she enrolled in community college to begin pursuing a degree in Spanish. "In Indigenous communities from Oaxaca, where my family is from, many of our parents don't believe in education, especially for women," Curiel said. "They think women should just marry and be dedicated to their family, have kids and that's all."

Whistleblowers can contact journalists more securely thanks to a new confidential and anonymous messaging technology co-developed by University of Cambridge researchers and software engineers at the Guardian.

The Guardian has launched Secure Messaging as a module within its mobile news app to provide a secure and usable method of establishing initial contact between journalists and sources.

It builds on a technology - CoverDrop -developed by Cambridge researchers and includes a wide range of security features. The code is available online and is open source, to encourage adoption by other news organisations.

The app automatically generates regular decoy messages to the Guardian to create 'air cover' for genuine messages, even when they are passing through the cloud, preventing an adversary from finding out if any communication between a whistleblower and a journalist is taking place.

"This provides whistleblowers with plausible deniability," said Professor Alastair Beresford from Cambridge's Department of Computer Science and Technology.

Through his longstanding support of cancer research at Cambridge, Sir Ka-shing Li continues to make a significant impact on outcomes for cancer patients Deborah Prentice, Vice-Chancellor

The Edison Histotripsy System was purchased thanks to a generous donation to the University of Cambridge from Hong Kong-based philanthropist Sir Ka-shing Li, a longstanding supporter of cancer research at the University.

Histotripsy uses pulsed sound waves to create 'bubble clouds' from gases present in targeted tissue. These bubble clouds form and collapse in microseconds, creating mechanical forces able to destroy tissue at cellular and sub-cellular levels while avoiding ionising energy of radiation, heat damage from thermal treatments, or the need for surgery.

Treatment is delivered via a single short session - potentially taking no longer than 30 minutes - with limited or no pain, a quick recovery, and can be performed as a day case. The speed of delivery has the potential to reduce cancer treatment times, avoid disease progression and improve cancer survival.

The system will be demonstrated today by Dr Teik Choon See, Consultant Interventional Radiologist at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH). Guests will include Solina Chau, Director of the Li Ka Shing Foundation, and Baroness Merron, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC).

The machine, manufactured by HistoSonics, is expected to be fully installed at CUH later this year, where it will be used initially to treat patients with primary and secondary liver tumours before being expanded to treat tumours in other organs.

Unlike other solutions for robotic touch, which typically work via sensors embedded in small areas and require different sensors to detect different types of touch, the entirety of the electronic skin developed by the Cambridge and UCL researchers is a sensor, bringing it closer to our own sensor system: our skin.

Although the robotic skin is not as sensitive as human skin, it can detect signals from over 860,000 tiny pathways in the material, enabling it to recognise different types of touch and pressure - like the tap of a finger, a hot or cold surface, damage caused by cutting or stabbing, or multiple points being touched at once - in a single material.

The researchers used a combination of physical tests and machine learning techniques to help the robotic skin 'learn' which of these pathways matter most, so it can sense different types of contact more efficiently.

In addition to potential future applications for humanoid robots or human prosthetics where a sense of touch is vital, the researchers say the robotic skin could be useful in industries as varied as the automotive sector or disaster relief. The results are reported in the journal Science Robotics.

UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE: MENSTRUAL TRACKING APP DATA IS A 'GOLD MINE' FOR ADVERTISERS THAT RISKS WOMEN'S SAFETY - REPORT

Cambridge researchers urge public health bodies like the NHS to provide trustworthy, research-driven alternatives to platforms driven by profit.

Women deserve better than to have their menstrual tracking data treated as consumer data Prof Gina Neff

Smartphone apps that track menstrual cycles are a "gold mine" for consumer profiling, collecting information on everything from exercise, diet and medication to sexual preferences, hormone levels and contraception use.

This is according to a new report from the University of Cambridge's Minderoo Centre for Technology and Democracy, which argues that the financial worth of this data is "vastly underestimated" by users who supply profit-driven companies with highly intimate details in a market lacking in regulation.

The report's authors caution that cycle tracking app (CTA) data in the wrong hands could result in risks to job prospects, workplace monitoring, health insurance discrimination and cyberstalking - and limit access to abortion.

They call for better governance of the booming 'femtech' industry to protect users when their data is sold at scale, arguing that apps must provide clear consent options rather than all-or-nothing data collection, and urge public health bodies to launch alternatives to commercial CTAs.

"Menstrual cycle tracking apps are presented as empowering women and addressing the gender health gap," said Dr Stefanie Felsberger, lead author of the report from Cambridge's Minderoo Centre. "Yet the business model behind their services rests on commercial use, selling user data and insights to third parties for profit."

University of Central Arkansas student Honey Norfolk has been accepted to the Oregon State University "Robots in the Real World" program.

Norfolk, a Little Rock native, is a junior double majoring in engineering physics and sociology with minors in computer science and interdisciplinary studies.

The 10-week summer initiative is part of the university's Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site (REU) program, which has run for 11 years. During the program, Norfolk will participate in research and get hands-on learning on social robotics. This will involve designing, implementing, and evaluating social interactions between a Quori robot and people.

Her long-term goal is to earn a Doctor of Philosophy degree in robotics to study robotics and artificial intelligence's ethical and social implications. In looking towards her future, Norfolk explored several robotics research opportunities throughout the United States. She received word of her acceptance in March.

"I was so overwhelmed with joy, I could barely breathe. I had just been accepted to my top choice and couldn't have been happier. As soon as I calmed down just a little, I called my mom to tell her the news," she said.

She credits her successful admission, in part, to William Slaton, UCA professor and engineering physics coordinator, and Patrick Casey, UCA assistant professor of sociology.

"Both Dr. Slaton and Dr. Casey wrote my recommendation letters, and if there's anyone I should thank for where I am today, it's definitely them," Norfolk said.

Land is a fixed resource, and while we cannot create more, it is possible to use available land and infrastructure more efficiently. Connecticut farmers, especially those in urban and peri urban locations, consistently cite land access as one of their biggest challenges.

A UConn Extension team is expanding urban agriculture in Connecticut through a new project focusing on vacant lot activation and peri-urban farmland access linking, led by Jacqueline Kowalski, an associate extension educator based in UConn Extension's Bethel office.

Connecticut has five cities - Bridgeport, Stamford, New Haven, Hartford, and Waterbury - with over one hundred thousand residents, and 88% of the state's population lives in urban areas. Meanwhile, the number of urban agricultural operations is also increasing, and there is more interest in beginning new operations. Urban agriculture's growth is driven by increasing food security through local production, and a greater interest among more people in connecting with the land and growing their own food.

The University of Dayton today announced a leadership transition for its vice president for mission and rector position, a role central to upholding the University's Catholic, Marianist identity.

After 15 years of dedicated service as vice president for mission and rector and many more years in service at UD, Father Jim Fitz, S.M., will transition to semi-retirement by Jan. 1. Brother Tim Driscoll, S.M., a long-time Marianist and respected member of the University's board of trustees, will assume the role of vice President for mission and rector designate, effective Aug 1. Father Fitz will assist Brother Driscoll in his transition during the fall semester.

Father Fitz's legacy at the University of Dayton is profound, extending a nearly 50-year family history of leadership that includes his brother, Brother Ray Fitz, S.M., who served as president for 23 years. Father Jim, who graduated from UD in 1968, has been involved and dedicated to the University for more than 36 years, as the head of campus ministry and a religious studies instructor and then as vice president for mission and rector. Besides serving on the board of trustees while in Marianist leadership positions, he has served as an ex officio member of the University's board of trustees for 15 years.

"It's been a gift to me to serve here," Father Fitz said. "This has always been an energizing ministry and work. I've never thought about being here as a job - it is a vocation. I always remember a passage from scripture that reminds us, the gift you received from God, do your best to give others - I think I've done that. I'm not stepping down because I don't want to do it anymore, it's because this transition has to be done right and this is a good time to do it."

University of Dayton President Eric Spina lauded Father Fitz as a person and in his work including strengthening the Marianist Educational Associates program and leading board of trustees formation lessons on Catholic social teaching. Source: Company Website

UD DAY IN D.C. CELEBRATES THE POWER OF RESEARCH

Sometimes a text message, an email or a quick phone call will do. But there are definitely times when it's important to be on location to meet in 3D.

That's why University of Delaware leaders have made "UD Day in D.C." a priority. Every other year, several dozen UD researchers and students make the trip to the nation's capital to explain the impact of federally funded research and highlight its role in driving innovation, economic growth and scientific discovery.

It's an especially important endeavor now, as federal funding for research faces unprecedented uncertainty, making it critical to reinforce the bipartisan commitment to scientific progress and innovation. On Thursday, June 12, U.S. Sen. Chris Coons hosted the seventh UD Day in D.C. in the Hart Senate Office Building. The theme was "Innovation for the Nation."

Faculty members and students filled the room with exhibits and models, demonstrating and explaining the ways federally funded support has made important advances possible in a wide range of disciplines. They met with members of Congress, congressional committee staff members, UD alumni and other invited guests.

"This is an incredible event, where we see the innovation of the University of Delaware on full display," said U.S. Rep. Sarah McBride, who serves on the Science, Space and Technology Committee in the House. "UD is not simply an educational institution; it's a hub for economic activity and for innovation across sectors of society. You see how UD is leading the way in space exploration, in defense, in agriculture and health care. It's really exciting to witness just a glimpse of the lifesaving and world-enhancing research happening around UD. Delaware is lucky to have this legacy institution as a central hub of education, research and economic activity."

One thing she said when she was 5 years old, I will never forget. My wife used to take her to church every Sunday and one day the priest asked her why her daddy never showed up to church and she said, 'My father will never come. He says that you talk too much and just say nonsense things.'"

UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE: CELEBRATING BLUE HEN PHILANTHROPY

On May 14, the University of Delaware community came together for I Heart UD Giving Day. The event was another successful chapter in this proud Blue Hen tradition, with nearly 5,700 donors raising more than $1.19 million for UD causes led by students, faculty, staff and alumni.

This year featured more than 200 fundraising projects, giving the UD community more opportunities than ever to support their favorite causes. Donors could explore projects by college and area of passion, providing resources for research, sports teams, hands-on learning experiences and much more. With a mix of loyal annual donors and inspired new supporters, the Fightin' Blue Hen spirit was on full display.

As Blue Hens around the world showed their support, students, faculty and staff members gathered on campus to celebrate. Rain moved the festivities indoors to the Rodney Room in Perkins Student Center, but that didn't dampen the community's enthusiasm to donate, play games, win prizes, take photos with YoUDee and record thank you messages to UD donors.

For rising senior Angelina Ponenti, becoming a Student Alumni Ambassador and staffing I Heart UD Giving Day was a natural extension of the love she's felt for the University since touring campus as a high school senior.

"Initiatives like I Heart UD Giving Day not only invite students to come out to a campus event with merch and food but also reassure them that any donation or involvement goes back to bettering the University," Ponenti said. "I love UD and all the opportunities it has offered me. I Heart UD Giving Day is all about giving back, expressing your interest in certain projects and letting students express their love for UD."

Many University programs rely on fundraising projects to support their activities. Thanks to strong support from alumni and friends, the Club Synchronized Skating team raised over $11,000, including $4,200 earned through participation in fundraising challenges, to help cover the costs of ice time and traveling to competitions.

"I Heart UD Giving Day is so important to our team because it helps raise the essential funds we need to continue our legacy as 24-time Eastern Sectional Champions and support our journey to Nationals on the West Coast, pending qualification," said rising senior and club president Amy Gordon. "With 21 dedicated athletes from across the country brought together by our love of the sport, we're proud to uphold the UD Synchronized Skating Team legacy, made possible in large part by the continued support of our incredible alumni."

UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE: CREATING A GLOBAL MINERALS TRUST

Demand for critical minerals like lithium, cobalt and rare earth elements continues to increase worldwide. To ensure that these critical elements are shared by all for the good of humanity, University of Delaware professor Saleem Ali has proposed the creation of a global minerals trust that would include independent audit mechanisms - like those used by the International Atomic Energy Agency - to ensure environmental and social safeguards.

Ali made the proposal in a paper published in Science along with a United Nations policy brief.

Through the proposed trust, countries would retain full sovereignty over their resources while committing to prioritize mineral flows for green technologies and avoid politicized supply disruptions. It would help countries work together to manage and share critical minerals fairly and sustainably, avoiding political fights, price shocks and environmental damage.

"Without a shared framework, we risk deepening global inequalities, triggering unnecessary resource conflicts and undermining our ability to deliver on climate goals," said Ali, Blue and Gold Distinguished Professor of Energy and the Environment who holds joint appointments in the College of Earth, Ocean and Environment and the Joseph R. Biden Jr. School of Public Policy and Administration. "The idea we are presenting is to have a minerals trust that would give assurances to both the countries who are mining and those who are using the minerals. That way, we won't have this kind of race to the bottom with more extractive projects, which are potentially more problematic."

Ali, who also leads the Critical Minerals and Inclusive Energy Transition program at the United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment and Health, pointed out that as things currently stand, nations are often in conflict with each other over these critical minerals. Instead of working together, they often try to find alternative solutions that exclude the other party, which can cause environmental and economical damage to their own countries.

Most previous studies have focused on CEOs, but this one looked at Chief Financial Officers (CFOs), the top financial decision-makers at companies. The findings are published today in the journal European Management Review.

"What's new here is that we show CFOs' personalities - especially if they're overconfident -can lead to risky decisions that harm both the environment and the company," said Dr Yurtsev Uymaz of UEA's Norwich Business School. "We also show that certain state laws can help keep those risks in check."

Prof Patrycja Klusak of Heriot-Watt University added: "This matters because it connects executive behaviour with real-world outcomes like pollution and financial damage. It suggests that paying attention to the personality traits of company leaders - especially CFOs - is important. It also shows that stakeholder-focused laws can help prevent bad behaviour and protect both the public and investors."

Andrea Lake, a diabetes specialist nurse and University of East Anglia PhD student at Addenbrooke's Hospital has won a national award in recognition of her research, which could shorten hospital stays for people with diabetes.

Time in hospital can make it harder for people with diabetes to maintain healthy blood sugar levels, which can lead to health complications and slow down recovery.

Hospital inpatients with diabetes are often only referred to diabetes specialist nurses if they start experiencing diabetes-related complications, such as low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia). These complications are not only undesirable for patients but can extend their hospital stays.

At Addenbrooke's, Andrea has been trialling a different approach. She is investigating whether a proactive review for all people with diabetes when they are admitted to hospital, could improve diabetes management, improving outcomes and experiences for patients.

Over the last five years, Andrea has led several small-scale studies as part of her PhD studies. Sponsored by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH), these studies explore the benefits of offering people with diabetes specialist tailored advice to help managing their diabetes when they are first admitted to hospital.

Andrea was the first nurse in the East of England to receive a National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) doctoral fellowship, which has supported her to undertake this research as part of her PhD studies. Her PhD is supervised from the University of East Anglia (UEA). Andrea aims to complete her current studies and gain her PhD doctorate in 2026 but hopes to continue her research beyond this.

The most recent study ran across eight wards at Addenbrooke's covering a range of medical specialisms. It included 260 people with diabetes that were admitted for treatments unrelated to their diabetes. Half of the participants received standard care and half were given specialist advice when they were admitted.

The initial results have been promising. Andrea has shown that proactive reviews can be achieved within busy NHS hospitals and that they are viewed positively by NHS staff.

UNIVERSITY OF EAST ANGLIA: RADICAL SHIFT NEEDED IN CHILD SAFEGUARDING REVIEWS

New research involving the University of East Anglia shows that a different approach to 'learning' and improved infrastructure could make child safeguarding reviews more useful.

Commissioned by the Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel, the report explores how child safeguarding reviews are done and suggests changes at local, regional and national levels, with recommendations for the panel and government on how to improve the system of learning from serious child safeguarding incidents.

Some of the key findings were shared today during an event involving Dr Jeanette Cossar, of UEA's School of Social Work and one of the authors of the report.

Child safeguarding reviews, previously known as Serious Case Reviews, are conducted to examine the circumstances surrounding serious incidents involving children, such as abuse or neglect, that result in serious harm or death.

Their purpose, at local and national level, is to identify improvements that can be made to safeguard and promote the welfare of children. Learning is relevant locally but has a wider importance for all practitioners working with children and families and for the government and policymakers.

Undertaken by Research in Practice, UEA, and the Vulnerability Knowledge and Practice Programme, the research explored learning and improvement from serious child safeguarding incidents and the local child safeguarding practice review process.

Findings in the report include notable variability in capacity and capabilities across safeguarding partnerships, and structural and cultural differences between agencies.

In the fungal kingdom there are numerous examples of sexual reproduction, involving the recombination of genetic material. During the sexual cycle and the division of the cell nucleus, known as meiosis, fruiting bodies containing meiospores are produced. The underlying genetic processes mean that the resulting recombinant microorganisms may have new, potentially beneficial properties for the fungus. Microbiologists suspect that these processes are particularly significant for the pathogenic properties, or virulence, and resistance behavior of human pathogenic fungi. Detailed research into these processes and their consequences is therefore hugely significant for a basic understanding of fungal pathogens.

At the age of 40, Sieglinde P. was diagnosed with IgA nephropathy, an incurable kidney disease that entails a progressive reduction in kidney function. For a long time, she remained free of symptoms in spite of her kidneys being chronically inflamed. However, everything changed in 2024. Her kidneys progressively deteriorated, and 30 years after her initial diagnosis, she had to undergo dialysis several times a week. The only alternative: a kidney transplant At first, Sieglinde P. was skeptical. "Waiting times for a donor organ are eight to nine years, there's no point for someone my age! That's what I thought at the time," she remembers. When the team from the Erlangen-Nurnberg Transplant Center (speaker: Prof. Dr. Robert Grutzmann) at Uniklinikum Erlangen finally suggested a living-donor kidney transplant, her husband Roland P. was determined: "I have been very lucky in life and have never been seriously ill. I thought to myself: If it is medically possible, I would like to donate one of my kidneys to my wife." No sooner said than done - the preparation, removal of the organ and the subsequent transplant all went according to plan. Just a few days after surgery, Roland and Sieglinde P. were able to leave the hospital. During this year's Organ Donation Day, the couple from the Furth region would like to encourage other patients with their story.

This means that in experiments, if differences are found between the test animals and the control group, they cannot be explained by differences in their genetic make-up. "In principle, this makes the animals the perfect subject for clarifying medical questions," stresses principal investigator Prof. Dr. Stephan Rosshart, Professor of Microbiomics at FAU and head of the Department of Microbiomics Research at Universitatsklinikum Erlangen (UKER).

Plus-size tourists "can and will travel" and the travel industry needs to wake up to their needs, according to a study of TikTok posts.

Researchers from Essex and Newcastle University have shown that despite "paying lip service" to improving equality, diversity and inclusivity (EDI), the travel and tourism industry is failing to make adjustments for plus-size tourists.

By analysing TikTok videos and comments using the hashtag #plussizetravel, they have shown that plus-size travellers continue to face exclusion, despite wanting to take part in the same typical activities as slimmer tourists.

UNIVERSITY OF GDANSK: SEA-EU IS MOVING FORWARD! RECTORS OF COASTAL UNIVERSITIES SIGN MEMORANDUM ON CONTINUING STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP

During the SEA-EU Governing Board meeting in Kiel, key decisions were made regarding the future of our alliance of coastal universities. They are guided by a single vision: SEA-EU is becoming a true European inter-university campus of the future, offering innovative study programmes, conducting ambitious research projects and establishing cooperation with global stakeholders. On 5 June, the continuation of SEA-EU was sealed once and for all!

The Rectors of the coastal universities signed a memorandum in which they officially commit to creating a legal basis for SEA-EU. This decision lays the foundation for the continuation of the partnership within the European Universities Initiative programme, regardless of funding from the European Commission after 2027.

In addition, key documents on common directions were also signed, including a cooperation agreement on STORM studies and scholarship agreements for the best candidates for SeaBluE and MIPMAL. These are interdisciplinary and mobility-based study programmes tailored to the needs of the labour market in maritime-related industries, ranging from port management and the blue economy to oceanographic research.

The Governing Board meeting in Kiel was the first meeting of the Rectors of maritime universities after the positive assessment of our partnership in the SEA-EU 2.0 mid-term report. After more than two years of implementation of the second edition and five years of SEA-EU as a whole, it was an ideal opportunity to summarise the joint activities of the nine universities.

The partnership of nine universities offers four innovative study programmes, conducts ambitious research projects, including those with a leading role for the University of Gdansk, such as two international research cruises on the University's r/v Oceanograf, and has provided thousands of mobility opportunities for students and university staff. As part of SEA-EU, over 100 integration, cultural and sporting events have already been organised and cooperation with 30 global academic institutions has been established.

Strengthening the potential of the University of Gdansk in serving the international academic community is the main objective of the 'Baltic Welcome Hub' project carried out by the UG International Cooperation Office. The project has received funding from the National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA) under the Welcome to Poland 2024 programme!

'The activities planned in the project will include the development of staff competencies through specialised training, the expansion of support infrastructure through the creation of new Welcome Points on the campuses in Gdynia and Sopot, and the modernisation of the Welcome Centre website, which will become a modern and accessible virtual information and assistance centre, in line with the standards of the international EURAXESS network,' said Magdalena Sawicz, Director of the International Cooperation Office and project manager. 'As part of a similar grant, we have already opened a Welcome Point on the Oliwa campus, where newly arrived international members of our academic community can receive comprehensive support to make their experience at our university the best it can be. However, it is very important that they can receive such support directly on the campus where they spend their daily lives. We are committed to meeting their real needs!' fot.

The internationalisation of the academic community requires the administrative staff to improve their skills in intercultural communication, diplomatic protocol, and the promotion of inclusive attitudes. For this reason, the project also provides for specialised training in areas such as inclusiveness, diversity management, and cultural integration.

'We all create the university, because a university is first and foremost about people. That is why we should all be involved in building its international openness, friendliness, and brand,' said Vice-Rector for Cooperation and International Relations dr hab. Anna Jurkowska-Zeidler, prof. UG. 'Building an international academic community is based on people, their attitudes and competences. We therefore want to support our employees in their development so that they can best represent the University of Gdansk and face the challenges of an international, multicultural academic environment.'

The final pillar of the project tasks is the expansion and modernisation of the Welcome Centre website. The website will be expanded to present key information about life and work in Poland, legal procedures, scientific opportunities and administrative support in a clear and personalised manner. Thanks to easy access to resources and tools, the platform will significantly improve the adaptation and integration process for international students and researchers, including those with special needs. The website will comply with EURAXESS network standards.

The study found that adolescents who got less sleep had less connectivity between the parts of the brain that play a critical role in decision making, self-reflection and processing information.

New research from the University of Georgia's Odum School of Ecology and Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant suggests there may be elevated levels of mercury in Georgia and South Carolina waters.

In studying alligators from the Okefenokee Swamp, Jekyll Island and Yawkey Wildlife Center, UGA researchers found high levels of mercury, prompting concerns about the levels of the heavy metal in the environment.

"Alligators are very ancient creatures, and we can look at them in these areas as an indicator of what else might be happening in the ecosystem. Studying them can relate to many different things in the food web," said Kristen Zemaitis, lead author of the study and a graduate of the Odum School.

UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW: STUDY REVEALS LASTING MENTAL HEALTH IMPACTS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

A groundbreaking study has found that women who experienced physical abuse in the context of domestic violence are more likely to suffer from long-term mental health challenges, even decades after the abuse has ended.

Approximately 30% of women worldwide will experience intimate partner violence - commonly referred to as domestic violence - in their lifetime. Often this will involve physical abuse, including risk of traumatic brain injury. Nevertheless, despite the prevalence of domestic violence and associated brain injuries, there has been little research into its potential long-lasting effects on brain health.

Image of a brain scan

To address this, The Drake IPV Study, led by the Professor Willie Stewart, Honorary Professor at the University of Glasgow, explored the mental health consequences associated with domestic violence and traumatic brain injury. The results are published in BMJ Mental Health.

Working with data from the multi-centre PREVENT Dementia Study, the researchers found that 14% of 632 study participants, who were aged 40-59 years-old at recruitment, reported a history of domestic violence with physical abuse. Compared with unexposed participants, a history of domestic violence was associated with higher traumatic brain injury exposure, alongside higher lifetime and ongoing diagnoses of mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, sleep disorders and PTSD.

Notably, the risk of ongoing mid-life mental health disorders remained despite the exposure to domestic violence having ceased, on average, 27 years before assessment. A history of traumatic brain injury in those with exposure to domestic violence was also associated with increased risk of ongoing PTSD symptoms and concurrent mental health disorders.

Professor Stewart said: "Given its prevalence, these findings highlight domestic violence as a public health issue with potential for long-lasting impacts on brain health. Our work also reinforces the need for more research in this previously neglected area."

In 'Liekuut', which is the Groningen dialect for straight ahead or straightforward, we regularly share the perspective of one of our academics on a topical issue. In this way, we show how UG researchers are contributing to the societal debate.

Is elite sport only fun for the people who are actually doing it? It generates money and attention, there are special arrangements in place for students who compete at the highest level, and newspapers are full of sports headlines, but how does it benefit us as a society? Well, a lot, according to Ruud den Hartigh, associate professor of Talent Development. In addition to connecting and inspiring us, elite sport provides a wealth of data that can teach us a lot about human behaviour, which ultimately benefits society as a whole. Community

'I can see that elite level sport inspires and connects people. During the World Cup, whole neighbourhoods turn orange, and it shows that football promotes a sense of togetherness in society. This is not only true for the Dutch national team, but also at a local level: FC Groningen brings together people from all walks of life. In this sense, football can be a breeding ground for togetherness, respect, and community spirit.

Major football clubs are also committed to their communities. For example, Kids United, a football club for children with disabilities, was 'adopted' by FC Groningen in 2011. Or the Scholentour (Schools Tour) initiative, through which FC Groningen visits schools in the province to promote exercise and health in children. These social initiatives can be seen at various professional clubs in football and beyond, both in the Netherlands and abroad. Elite sport, and the reach of elite sport organizations function as a vehicle for creating societal impact, so to speak.

University of Hawaiʻi President Wendy Hensel has appointed Vassilis Syrmos to serve as interim provost of UH Manoa, effective July 1, 2025. Syrmos will succeed Michael Bruno, who announced on May 5 that he will return to the faculty on July 1 after serving as provost since 2019. Syrmos in office Vassilis Syrmos

Syrmos brings more than three decades of experience in higher education leadership, including roles as associate vice chancellor for research at UH Manoa and, for the past 12 years, vice president for research and innovation for the UH System. He has been a faculty member in the UH Manoa College of Engineering for 34 years, including 22 years in administrative roles.

"I want to thank Vassilis for stepping up to serve UH Manoa during this time of transition," said Hensel. "He will continue to be a vital member of the leadership team as we navigate the many challenges and opportunities facing higher education today."

Hensel outlined three criteria for the interim appointment: demonstrated administrative leadership in higher education, a deep understanding of both UH Manoa and the UH System, and a preference to not pursue the permanent role.

"I am humbled by this opportunity to serve UH Manoa, one of the nation's premier public universities," said Syrmos. "These are difficult times for higher education, but also a moment to reshape and strengthen how we serve the people of Hawaiʻi. I believe in President Hensel's vision and look forward to supporting her leadership."

A program at the University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa that supported dozens of career development activities for women in geosciences and community outreach was terminated by the loss of federal funding.

In April, Barbara Bruno, project lead and faculty member at the Hawaiʻi Institute of Geophysics and Planetology in the UH Manoa School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST), was given a termination notice with instructions to immediately close operations on the National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded program. About two-thirds of the nearly $200,000 budget was forfeited when the grant was terminated. person standing in front of a poster board An early CASA award supported a graduate student's presentation at an international conference.

"SOEST is Hawaiʻi's largest producer of geoscience graduates-alumni who go on to monitor volcanic hazards, predict extreme weather, conduct assessments of environmental impacts, ensure sustainable use of Hawaiʻi's freshwater resources, and more," said Bruno. "I think the biggest impact of this termination is the loss of professional development opportunities for women. STEM is hemorrhaging women-we need programs to keep them."

The NSF award supported a mini-grant program, Catalyst Awards for Science Advancement (CASA), that funded geoscience workforce development in two ways: outreach and community engagement to attract the next generation of STEM professionals; and professional development for current SOEST students and early career scientists.

UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII SYSTEMS: RARE 1478 MAP OF ANCIENT SOUTHEAST ASIA ON DISPLAY AT HAMILTON LIBRARY

The University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa's Hamilton Library has acquired a remarkable piece of history, one of the earliest printed maps of Southeast Asia, dating back to 1478.

The map comes from a rare Rome edition of Cosmographia by Claudius Ptolemy, a geographer from ancient Alexandria whose ideas shaped how the world was visualized for centuries. This version is special for an additional reason. It was printed by Konrad Sweynheim, a 15th century German printer and engraver who pioneered copperplate printing in Italy.

The map was purchased by the UH Manoa Center for Southeast Asian Studies and gifted to the library.

"The Center for Southeast Asian Studies is proud to support the Maps and Southeast Asia Collection in Hamilton Library through funding from the National Resource Center grant from the International Foreign Language and Area Studies Program in the U.S. Department of Education," said Teri Skillman, associate director of CSEAS.

Alisa Kwok, a digitization specialist at UH Manoa helped bring the map to life through high-resolution imaging that will allow students and researchers to study it in detail without touching the fragile original.

"This is the oldest map in Hamilton Library and it enhances the already world-class Southeast Asia collection," said Kwok.

"Rare and historical maps provide more than geographical awareness. They are important primary sources and cultural heritage objects that provide students with insights into historical events, power structures, and cultural narratives of the times."

UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI: ULTRA-PROCESSED FOODS MAY AFFECT THE BRAIN AND LEAD TO OVEREATING

Studies have linked the high consumption of ultra-processed foods with multiple diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, and dementia. A recent international study explored the connection between ultra-processed food consumption and brain structure.

"Our findings indicate that a high consumption of ultra-processed foods is associated with structural changes in brain regions regulating eating behaviour, such as the hypothalamus, amygdala and right nucleus accumbens. This may lead to a cycle of overeating. However, long-term and experimental studies are still needed to strengthen the association," says doctoral researcher Arsene Kanyamibwa of the University of Helsinki.

The study indicated that the link between ultra-processed foods and overeating cannot be accounted for solely by the resultant inflammation or obesity. Changes in the brain may also be explained by the ingredients, emulsifiers and other additives used to make ultra-processed foods.

UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG: HKUMED DISCOVERS KEY PROTEIN THAT ENABLES 'SHOCK & KILL' STRATEGY FOR HIV LATENT VIRUS CLEARANCE

Over 40 million people worldwide are living with HIV-1, which continues to be a major global health challenge due to its ability to persist silently within immune cells, evading complete eradication. Researchers at LKS Faculty of Medicine, the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed), have identified a specific gene transcription factor, BRD9, as a potential key to unlocking the mechanisms behind HIV-1 latency. This could pave the way for AIDS to no longer be a largely incurable disease. The study has been published in the scientific journal The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) [link to publication].

Despite over four decades of research, AIDS remains a disease that is difficult to cure, primarily due to the highly variable nature of HIV-1 globally. Professor Chen Zhiwei, Suen Chi-Sun Professor in Clinical Science, Chair Professor of Immunology and Immunotherapy, Department of Microbiology, School of Clinical Medicine, HKUMed, and Director of the HKU AIDS Institute, explained, 'The persistent presence of latent HIV-1 viruses in immune cells remains the greatest barrier to curing AIDS. Even with antiretroviral therapy (ART), many infected individuals still cannot achieve a complete recovery.'

Professor Chen continued, 'By screening 280 epigenetic compounds, we have identified, for the first time, the BRD9 protein as a key player in reactivating latent HIV-1. BRD9 not only regulates viral gene expression but also competes with the HIV-1 Tat protein, modulating viral reactivation. This discovery offers new hope for the "Shock & Kill" strategy - aiming to activate hidden virus reservoirs and then eliminate them.'

This groundbreaking study reveals that when combined with another HIV-1 latency reversal agent (LRA), the BRD9 inhibitor demonstrates a significant synergistic effect in reactivating latent HIV-1 reservoir.

'These findings deepen scientific knowledge of HIV latency and lay a crucial foundation for novel curative and precise approaches, offering hope to the millions of people living with HIV worldwide. The strong synergy observed between BRD9 inhibitors and existing LRAs suggests promising avenues for combination treatments to effectively activate and eradicate latent HIV,' added Professor Chen.

About the research team The research team is led by Professor Chu Hin, Gallant Ho Outstanding Young Professor, Associate Professor in the Department of Microbiology, School of Clinical Medicine, HKUMed; and Professor Chen Zhiwei, Suen Chi-Sun Professor in Clinical Science, Chair Professor of Immunology and Immunotherapy, Department of Microbiology, School of Clinical Medicine, HKUMed, and Director of the HKU AIDS Institute. The research work was conducted primarily by Dr Luk Tsz-Yat, PhD student, with assistance from several members of the research team, including Professor Yuen Kwok-Yung and Professor Jasper Chan Fuk-Woo of the Department of Microbiology, School of Clinical Medicine, HKUMed.

UNIVERSITY OF JOHANNESBURG: OPINION: DIGITAL SHADOWS: UNVEILING THE CRISIS OF FORCED LABOUR IN THE TECH AGE

The digital age is characterised by a fragile balance between promise and peril. The peril is often imagined through the lens of dystopian fiction - tales of mass surveillance, algorithmic control, the erosion of privacy and even an artificial takeover. But beyond these cautionary narratives, the real threats are far more subtle and, in many cases, invisible. One of the most alarming of these is digital forced labour.

Forced labour is prohibited by the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Forced Labour Convention 29 of 1930. According to the ILO, forced labour refers to any work performed under coercion, threat or without free and informed consent.

At a national level, South Africa's Constitution provides a clear prohibition - section 13 states that "no one may be subjected to slavery, servitude or forced labour". This is supported by domestic legislation such as section 48 of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act, which gives further effect to this right.

Each year, on 16 June, South Africa commemorates Youth Day, a tribute to the young people who stood up against apartheid policies during the Soweto Uprising of 1976. While this day honours their resilience and pursuit of justice, today's youth, while navigating a different landscape, faces a different but equally urgent challenge, youth unemployment.

KU SCIENTISTS AND CENTER DIRECTOR AMONG EXPERTS CALLING FOR REVISION OF FEDERAL FOOD AND NUTRITION GUIDANCE DURING PREGNANCY

Members of a University of Kansas research team who have long studied the role of pre- and postpartum nutrition on child development are among dozens of researchers in the U.S. and Europe warning about the dangers of restricting fish consumption during pregnancy.

John Colombo, professor of psychology and director of the KU Life Span Institute, and Susan Carlson, the AJ Rice Professor of Nutrition in the KU Department of Dietetics & Nutrition and a University Distinguished Professor at KU Medical Center, joined colleagues from around the world in calling on changes to federal advisories in the journal NeuroToxicology. Colombo and Carlson established a collaborative laboratory over 25 years ago that spans the Lawrence and Medical Center campuses to pursue interdisciplinary research on the effects of prenatal and postnatal nutrition on neurodevelopment.

"For decades, pregnant women have been advised to avoid eating seafood during pregnancy due to the risk of environmental contaminants. The published commentary urges a rebalancing of that risk assessment, now that we know the importance of nutrients in fish that are essential for development of the central nervous system," Colombo said.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS DRIVES $7.8 BILLION ECONOMIC IMPACT IN KANSAS, STUDY SHOWS

The University of Kansas is a powerful engine of economic growth and job creation for the state of Kansas, according to a new study detailing the university's impact.

Conducted by global analytics firm Lightcast, the study quantifies KU's annual statewide impact at $7.8 billion, which includes KU activity in operations, construction and research, as well as the expenditures of KU startup companies, visitors, students and alumni. This activity supports nearly 88,000 jobs - or 1 in every 23 jobs in Kansas. For context, if KU by itself were its own industry sector, it would be the 10th-largest sector in Kansas.

Additionally, the study finds that for every $1 invested in KU, taxpayers gain $2.90 in added tax revenue and public sector savings - illustrating the magnitude of the return on investment for Kansas residents and lawmakers.

The study encompasses the activities of all KU campuses - including the Lawrence and Edwards campuses, as well as KU Medical Center campuses in Kansas City, Wichita and Salina - and The University of Kansas Health System.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS CANCER CENTER: STUDY FINDS PITCHERS HAVE THICKER UCLS IN ELBOWS THAN OTHER BASEBALL PLAYERS, FACTORS THAT RISK COMMON INJURY

Every baseball season, players from major leagues to youth levels lose time because of injuries to the ulnar collateral ligament in the elbow. A University of Kansas researcher is co-author of a new study that used advanced technology to measure the thickness of baseball players' UCLs, finding the ligaments were thicker in pitchers versus position players and that the common assumption of certain arm slots being less stressful on the elbow was not supported.

The findings, published in the Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, help demonstrate risks for the injury and how athletes, trainers and coaches can prevent them.

The researchers conducted a study with 22 NCAA Division I college baseball players over the course of a preseason. The players wore a sleeve with an embedded accelerometer that measured elbow torque and other variables while the players completed at least 1,000 throws during data collection. Ultrasounds were taken of their elbows.

EVENTS CALENDAR: KU TO HOST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CIVILITY, POLITICS

A group of international scholars will convene at the University of Kansas this summer to discuss the state of civility in contemporary politics.

KU's Department of Philosophy and Center for Cyber-Social Dynamics, along with Monash University via the Research Talent Accelerator Fellowship program, will host Civility and Politics in a Changing World from July 19 to 21. Organizers aim to provide a forum for interdisciplinary debate and, in the long term, to establish an international network of scholars working in this field.

"Civility seems to be a lost art in this day and age, yet needed as a possible antidote to polarization," said Nancy Snow, KU professor of philosophy and conference co-organizer. "This conference will bring together researchers from a variety of disciplines and countries to conduct focused discussions on what civility is, how to achieve it and why it's important."

Attending are international scholars from the Indian School of Democracy, India; Monash University, Australia; Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona; University of Copenhagen, Denmark; Royal Holloway, University of London, United Kingdom; and the University of Oxford, United Kingdom.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS CANCER CENTER: EATING DISORDERS LAB GAINS NEW DESIGNATION AS A CENTER WITH CONTINUED GOAL TO HELP IMPROVE ACCESS TO BETTER HEALTH

An article in your favorite magazine could have inspired you to explore how pressures of professional dance contributed to the death of a dancer.

A professor might have called you out to commend you for your term paper, asking if you'd considered a career in research.

You may have met people who drove for hours to access health care in rural Wyoming.

These are among the chance encounters that have led to the launch of a dedicated research center at the University of Kansas focused on identifying and treating eating disorders. It's also laying the foundation for dozens of undergraduate and graduate students to enter the field.

The Center for the Advancement of Research on Eating Behaviors, or CARE, is the newest center to become a part of the KU Life Span Institute, which for more than 70 years has been focused on improving human health and development.

Leading the center are Director Kelsie Forbush, a senior scientist and professor of child clinical psychology, and Angeline Bottera, CARE associate director and assistant research professor. They are joined by a statistician, an administrative associate, three research project coordinators, seven graduate students and 20 undergraduate research assistants.

Ethnic minority healthcare workers who are also born overseas face a double disadvantage due to the combined effects of ethnicity and migrant status, according to new research published in JRSM Open.

Using data from the nationwide UK-REACH cohort study, this is the first analysis to explore how migration status - often overlooked in Human Resources records - intersects with ethnicity to affect NHS career progression.

The cross-sectional study of over 5,700 healthcare workers employed under the NHS Agenda for Change (AfC) pay scale - which covers staff including nurses, midwives, and allied health professionals - found that overseas-born staff were significantly less likely to be placed in higher AfC pay bands, even after adjusting for education, job role, and years of professional qualification. In particular, Asian and Black healthcare workers born overseas were less likely to reach higher pay bands compared to their White UK-born and trained counterparts.

Over 200 first year pupils from four post-primary schools across Limerick, Galway and Kerry gathered at University of Limerick (UL) to take part in the inaugural 'NEEDS' Schools Conference - a unique event celebrating student-led learning and democratic education.

Hosted by UL's School of Education, the event brought together students, teachers, researchers, and key figures from the education sector to mark a significant milestone in the Negotiating the Essentials for Education in Democratic Societies (NEEDS) research project.

A first of its kind, the NEEDS project aims to demonstrate and research practical approaches to education through democracy involving authentic student voice and agency.

NEEDS enables Junior Cycle students to co-create their learning experiences by designing short courses that address real-world issues that matter most to them.

Showcasing their projects at the event were St Michael's College Listowel, Co Kerry; Galway Educate Together Secondary School, Co Galway; Colaiste Iosaef Community College, Kilmallock, Co Limerick; and John the Baptist Community School, Hospital, Co Limerick.

Topics explored by the school students included social media's effect on mental health, farm safety and mental health, homelessness, surviving the first year of secondary school, the impact of sport on climate change, and challenges in public transport.

Throughout the day, students and teachers shared their learning and experiences through poster exhibitions, oral presentations and short videos.

Dr John O'Reilly, Associate Professor at UL's School of Education and Principal Investigator on the NEEDS project said: "This process empowers students to shape what, how and why they learn to support meaningful engagement with issues that really matter to them.

"Often this involves 'wicked' problems that are difficult to resolve such as homelessness, climate change, mental health and issues that are resistant to simple solutions.

"Students have time to come to understand the nature of these complex issues and, in time, the space to take small, local action that can raise community awareness and enable change.

"As such, NEEDS represents a paradigm shift in the purpose of education, where schools can become knowledge generators in their communities. Such fundamentally democratic purposes do not otherwise exist in formal national and international curricula," he added.

Eabha Hughes, PhD researcher with the NEEDS project, said: "The inaugural NEEDS conference showed that when we give students a real voice in their education and empower them to take charge of what, how, and why they learn, the results are extraordinary.

"These young people aren't just learning differently; they're redefining the purpose of education. They're showing that student-led democratic education isn't just a concept, it can be a powerful, practical pathway to real transformation."

Through frequent school visits, classroom observations, teacher interviews, student and teacher focus groups and student surveys, initial findings from the research suggest the development of shared responsibility and positive mutual interdependence amongst students.

One first year student remarked: "It's like you can express yourself more. You're learning and you get to learn from the students as well as teachers. In most classrooms, you're sort of just getting information from the teachers and not from your peers and the other students, but in negotiated learning you've got to hear from the teachers and the students both, together."

UNIVERSITY OF LIVERPOOL POSTCARD: LOOKING AT LILLE - URBAN PLANNING INSIGHTS FROM NORTHERN FRANCE

Dr Olivier Sykes, Discipline Lead for Planning in the Department of Geography & Planning, has just returned from a trip to Lille:

Urban planning colleagues from the Universities of Liverpool and Lille have a long history of collaboration such through the French and British Planning Studies Group with a series of research seminars and publications on themes of common interest.

My recent trip to the Universite de Lille offered an opportunity to become reacquainted with the characterful and always surprising capital of Hauts de France.

Lille's economy from the 19th. century onwards was based on textiles, heavy engineering, and being the main business and service centre of a wider coal mining region.

It became a rich city, and like Liverpool was able to express this through opulent public buildings, often designed in a neo-regionalist style to emphasise the status of the city as the capital of French Flanders.

UNIVERSITY OF MALTA: GIVE US OUR DAILY BREAD, IN MALTESE

The Department of Maltese at the University of Malta is proud to launch a new Maltese language course in collaboration with Maypole, aimed at non-Maltese-speaking employees working in the company's shops. This initiative highlights the private sector's growing commitment to Maltese language learning.

The course is built around 17 practical sessions focused on real-life shop interactions. It prioritises speaking and listening skills while also covering basic grammar essentials to support communication.

This initiative benefits everyone: customers can be served in Maltese, employees feel more integrated at work and in the community, and Maypole strengthens its ties with its clientele. The public can support the initiative by showing appreciation for employees who make the effort to speak Maltese. It's a process that takes time, but it brings great satisfaction and opens the door to new friendships.

The course reflects the University's ongoing commitment to work closely with industry and society, ensuring that its teaching remains relevant and responsive to evolving linguistic needs.

Twenty years ago, the Department of Maltese introduced courses in Maltese as a Foreign Language. The courses started with just a few students. Over time, the numbers continued to grow so much that this year more than 800 people are studying Maltese as a Foreign Language - some in a general context and others in specialised areas, such as Maltese for the health sector.

UNIVERSITY OF MALTA: STUDENTS IN REVOLT: THE FORGOTTEN PROTESTS BEFORE SETTE GIUGNO

Did you know that a month before the Sette Giugno upheavel, when the cry for bread, work, and political demands grew louder, there were protests by some University students?

They stood up for what they considered academic and identity rights.

It goes back to 1914. The Government changed the regulations of some courses, reforms that affected law, medicine, and theology students by increasing their workload and time required to obtain a doctorate. Students who were due to graduate in 1919 were the first to be affected.

The situation heated up and what started as an academic protest among some students, developed into a strike and demonstrations in the streets of Valletta. Politician Francesco Azzopardi ended up being pelted with eggs; the University gate in Valletta was closed in chains; and some even broke windows and threw pieces of furniture outside. Four students were arrested.

So, the next time you hear about the June 7 riots, remember that the students were also angry, although that doesn't mean they caused the riots that occurred a month later. Anger, fear, and protest were a constant mix that day.

Family involvement is key in: decision making, everyday life, upholding of values and facing challenges. Village feasts are considered one of the most vital elements of Maltese culture, so are the Good Friday Procession, and traditional Maltese food.

Event: Lecture on Teaching-Focused Academic Careers in Higher Education: A Misnomer? Date: Friday 20 June 2025 Time: 09:00-10:15 Venue: Engineering Research & Innovation Laboratories Boardroom (R409)

Title: Teaching-focused academic careers in Higher Education: a misnomer? by Prof. Gabriel Cavalli, University of Leeds, UK.

This lecture is being hosted by the Department of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Malta.

Abstract:

So called "teaching-focused" academic careers in Higher Education have been on the increase worldwide for decades. They respond to a range of internal and external pressures and issues on the sector. However, despite this decades-long process, the reality is that the sector has not settled on ways of supporting, recognising and developing "teaching-focused" careers alongside more established "subject-research-focused" roles. There are still tensions, disparity, and general disagreement. This is quite remarkable in a sector that prides itself in expertise, academic rigour, with education as its core business. At both sides of this argument, what's at stake is what it means to be an academic. The talk will showcase and discuss the topic and make recommendations drawing from the UK context and the speaker's own career and educational leadership experience.

Dr Francesca Muscat, a physiotherapist and recent PhD graduate from the University of Malta, has developed a digital assessment tool aimed at improving the admission process for geriatric rehabilitation services.

Her research, conducted in collaboration with the Faculties of Health Sciences and Information and Communication Technology, led to the creation of the TERESA Patient Assessment system. This tool assists clinicians in evaluating the rehabilitation potential of older adults more systematically.

The development process involved analysing 250 patient cases and identifying seven key predictors that influence rehabilitation outcomes, such as the cause of admission, prior cognitive and mobility status, and social support factors.

The resulting algorithm provides a probability score to guide clinical decisions, achieving an internal accuracy rate of 76%.

While designed to support, not replace, clinical judgment, the tool offers a standardised approach to patient assessment.

REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN: IN CRISIS, NURSES STEP UP IN HEALTH SYSTEM RESILIENCE

Nurses deliver almost 80% of hands-on direct care globally, making them important in strengthening health system resilience. Despite their contributions during health crises, they remain underrepresented in leadership roles that shape essential resilience strategies.

A new study from the University of Michigan highlights the importance of health system resilience, defined as the ability of health systems to effectively respond to system shocks or disasters while maintaining essential services and preserving population health. Katherine KrugerKatherine Kruger

"What surprised me most was how few papers discussed both the nursing workforce and their contributions in terms of health system resilience," said lead author Katherine Kruger, a doctoral student at the U-M School of Nursing.

The research emphasizes both the challenges and opportunities for more effectively integrating nurses into these crucial processes. The findings support the World Health Organization's call to enhance health system resilience by empowering nurses, a vital part of the global health care workforce.

REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN: FEDERAL TRAVEL BAN IGNITES RACIAL BIAS DEBATE

President Trump's long-anticipated travel ban takes effect today, marking a significant shift in U.S. immigration policy. University of Michigan expert Jonathan Hanson, a lecturer in public policy at the Ford School, said the implications of this controversial measure will negatively impact many sectors.

How surprised were you by Trump's move, especially when he has gone out of his way to bring in white South Africans while the travel ban affects countries with generally black and brown populations?

No big surprise here. This travel ban has been in the works since January 20, when Trump issued an executive order calling upon security and intelligence agencies to identify countries that were deemed "deficient" at providing information to vet and screen those seeking admission to the United States.

The very special treatment given to white South Africans ("Afrikaners") in granting them refugee status is striking, however, since Trump has otherwise suspended the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program and terminated the Temporary Protected Status of refugees from countries like Afghanistan, Cameroon, Haiti and Venezuela.

REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN: CARBON CAPTURE METHOD MINES CEMENT INGREDIENTS FROM THE AIR

University of Michigan researchers have helped develop a method to take carbon dioxide, an industrial waste product that pollutes the atmosphere and turn it into something useful: precursors to make cement.

U-M chemist Charles McCrory and his research group, along with Jesus Velazquez's lab at the University of California, Davis and Anastassia Alexandrova's lab at the University of California, Los Angeles, have developed a method to capture carbon dioxide and turn it into metal oxalates, which then can be used as precursors for cement production.

"This research shows how we can take carbon dioxide, which everyone knows is a waste product that is of little-to-zero value, and upcycle it into something that's valuable," said McCrory, associate professor of chemistry and macromolecular science and engineering. "We're not just taking carbon dioxide and burying it; we're taking it from different point sources and repurposing it for something useful."

UNMC COLLEGE OF NURSING IN OMAHA TO OFFER TWICE-YEARLY ADMISSIONS

After successful rollouts for its Lincoln and Kearney divisions, the UNMC College of Nursing now will offer twice-a-year admission at its Omaha campus, welcoming its first spring cohort of incoming nursing students in January 2026.

Applications now are open for Omaha's spring 2026 cohort. The initial cohort will be approximately 30 students, rising to approximately 65 students as the program grows.

Lepaine Sharp-McHenry, DNP, dean of the UNMC College of Nursing, said nursing schools across the country still are turning away a substantial number of qualified applicants due to a lack of seats to accommodate them.

"We recognize that the need for nurses in Nebraska is continuing to increase," Dr. Sharp-McHenry said. "So this is part of our attempt to address this need."

The first spring cohort in Lincoln, which began in January, was larger than the college had projected, and Dr. Sharp-McHenry said admissions officers are finding there is a pool of students who may lack a pre-requisite for fall enrollment but are ready by spring.

"Based on that, we determined that we want to open spring enrollment for our Omaha division in spring of 2026," she said, adding that the college also is exploring twice-yearly admissions for its Northern Division in Norfolk.

While UNMC's advocacy is ongoing, he said that the campus cannot simply hope the situations will return to what they were, such as the cut to indirect research funding.

"We have to really make sure that we're planning for this, which is what we're doing," Dr. Davies told forum attendees.

He added that the community continues to look to UNMC to be a leader, and he said the UNMC community will get through the challenges together.

"We're as well positioned as any organization to get through this," he said, "and I really believe that we will."

Dr. Davies encouraged the campus to attend today's research town hall, organized by the UNMC Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research. The town hall will be held from 3-4 p.m. at the Durham Research Center auditorium (DRC 1, Room 1002). It also will be available via Zoom; UNMC faculty, students and staff are welcome and can access the discussion via this campus event listing.

UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA MEDICAL CENTER: DR. IWEN RECOGNIZED FOR BIOSAFETY AND BIOSECURITY LEADERSHIP

Peter Iwen, PhD, a professor in the UNMC Department of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology, has received the Leadership in Biosafety and Biosecurity Award from the Association of Public Health Laboratories.

In presenting the award, the APHL noted Dr. Iwen's work with the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response and the CDC to better define testing capabilities for the detection of high-consequence pathogens. Dr. Iwen is director of the Nebraska Public Health Laboratory and also serves as senior biosafety officer for UNMC and the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

He received the award at APHL's annual conference, which was held May 7 in Portland, Oregon.

"It is humbling to receive this honor on behalf of the staff at the Nebraska Public Health Laboratory," Dr. Iwen said. "Although we represent a smaller laboratory operation, the staff members are well recognized nationally for their service to the public health laboratory profession. I therefore share this award with them."

Dr. Iwen, who began at UNMC in 1978, has consistently been at the forefront of biosafety and biopreparedness efforts. In 1997, when the laboratory was transferred to the UNMC campus, he played a pivotal role in the establishment of a biopreparedness section within the lab.

UNMC DENTISTRY BACK ON THE ROAD WITH DENTAL CARAVAN

The UNMC College of Dentistry has restarted its longtime dental caravan, sending out college leaders, faculty and staff across the state to connect with alumni and friends of the college.

The caravan was a college of dentistry mainstay for years before it stopped for a break in 2017, then relaunched in 2019 only to go on hiatus through the pandemic years.

M.W. "Dub" Vogt, DDS, associate dean for student affairs, admissions, alumni and external relations for the UNMC College of Dentistry, said alums have been asking for the caravan, and it meets the college's goals to foster relationships with alumni, especially practitioners in rural Nebraska.

"It was a success," said Dr. Vogt, who joined the caravan, which ran from May 12-15. "For the relaunch, it was great to be back with our alums across the state."

From a practical perspective, the events - held virtually from Norfolk and at in-person events in Kearney and Scottsbluff - offered participants 3.5 credits of free continuing education.

Gerry Kugel, DMD, PhD, dean of the UNMC College of Dentistry, gave attendees an update on the college and detailed the VETSmile clinic that he started for the college and has championed.

Thanks to the continued generosity of the E.L.

The session brought together a large cohort of UNR Med students for a uniquely shared and powerful learning experience focused on the realities of substance use disorders and recovery.

"Before attending Betty Ford, most of my experiences with addiction came from witnessing active addiction, and I often interpreted patients' actions as conscious choices - especially when it came to drinking," shared medical student Catherine Ung. "However, through this experience, my perspective shifted dramatically.

Preparing future healthcare professionals for caring for older adults is a necessity.

A collaboration with Orvis School of Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies Program, Sanford Center for Aging, Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at University of Nevada, Reno and Sierra Nevada Veterans Affairs offered a half-day training at the University of Nevada, Reno for current healthcare students by pairing them with older adult volunteers. Each assessment lasted 20-30 minutes and rather than providing a script, each older adult volunteer talked as themselves as the students engaged and interacted while focusing on the 4Ms Framework.

The 4Ms Framework focuses on what matters most to the patient, medications, mentation (or mind) and mobility as key factors when working with older adults. This framework ensures that health care providers consider the full spectrum of elders' needs as individuals, rather than making assumptions based on age.

"Both interviewers were very personable and had great eye contact," said an anonymous OLLI volunteer. "They listened to what I had to say, and they validated my concerns about end-of-life issues."

UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, LAS VEGAS: NOT-SO-RISKY BUSINESS: GIFT FROM NEVADA SURPLUS LINES FOUNDATION BOOSTS SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BUSINESS STUDENTS

The insurance and risk management industry is at a crossroads, with nearly half of all professionals nationwide expected to retire within the next 10-15 years.

With workforce demand moving toward an all-time high, UNLV will launch Nevada's first bachelor's degree for future insurance and risk management professionals this fall. And thanks to a new $735,000 gift from the Nevada Surplus Lines Foundation, the first cohort of students will be eligible for scholarships to potentially cover the full cost of the final two years of the degree.

The new bachelor's degree program - which will also one of few on the West Coast - has been carefully designed to address the evolving needs of the insurance and risk management profession. It also follows recent efforts by the university to bolster the industry's workforce pipeline and position UNLV as a national leader in this important area of study.

In 2023, UNLV's Lee Business School opened the Kerestesi Center for Insurance and Risk Management. The center, supported by a $5 million gift from the Nevada Surplus Lines Foundation, aligns academic and industry programming, research, mentoring and professional development. It also serves as an important resource for students seeking career opportunities in the industry.

The new degree program, to be housed in the Lee Business School's Department of Finance, is the next step in the process and will integrate seamlessly with the Kerestesi Center and its established programs - setting students up to graduate as leaders prepared to contribute to an industry in need of new and diverse talent.

"More than 400,000 jobs in the insurance industry are expected to be available in the coming years, and this degree program - and more broadly the Kerestesi Center - will fill a vital need by supporting the next generation of thoughtful and innovative professionals," said Greg McKinley, chairman of the Kerestesi Center's Board of Advisors and the Nevada Surplus Lines Foundation. "This scholarship investment will remove financial barriers and provide professional mentoring, internships, and related support for the first cohort, and create a success story that will benefit UNLV students and our industry."

The new degree - a bachelor of science in business administration in insurance and risk management - was approved by Nevada's Board of Regents in June and will begin this fall. Students will gain skills and experience in underwriting and claims management, insurance operations, and corporate risk mitigation. The degree program will also infuse hands-on learning into the curriculum, including internships, case competitions, guest speakers, and real-world industry projects. Scholarship funds will support the financial needs of up to 35 eligible students in the first cohort, allowing them to complete the two-year major without additional debt.

As Nevada's Legislative Session wound down this June with a flurry of eleventh-hour compromises, 18 Honors College students watched with newfound insight into civic life. They weren't distant spectators, but participants freshly attuned to the layers of democracy in action.

They had spent the semester in HON 410: Modalities of Citizenship, an upper-division seminar taught by professor Bryan Blankfield, asking: "How do we perform citizenship in the modern world?" Through readings, discussion, and an exclusive three-day trip to Nevada's capital during spring break, the students examined how citizens can advocate for change - and experienced firsthand how civic ideals translate into action. From the Classroom to the Capital

The lessons from the classroom came into sharp focus in Carson City, where students found themselves bundled in jackets and clutching hot coffees as they navigated the capital's historic streets. Far from a sightseeing tour, the trip gave students a front-row seat to policymaking in action - one that made abstract concepts from class suddenly feel urgent and real.

Launched in 2016, PRIME provides targeted scientific and regulatory support to medications designed to address conditions with an unmet medical need; there are currently no licensed vaccines or treatments for Nipah virus. The additional support offered by EMA PRIME has been granted on the basis of compelling preclinical data and preliminary clinical evidence, and will help to accelerate the development and regulatory approval of the ChAdOx1 NipahB vaccine, which is currently in a Phase I clinical trial in Oxford led by the Oxford Vaccine Group.

Nipah virus is a deadly disease from the same family as measles, and is recognised by the World Health Organization as a research priority due to its pandemic potential. A vaccine is urgently needed as the disease can be fatal in up to 85% of cases. First identified after an outbreak in Malaysia, it causes small outbreaks in Bangladesh every year, and occasionally in India. Of the 750 cases recorded since 1999, there have been 415 deaths.

OXFORD PHYSICISTS SET NEW WORLD RECORD FOR QUBIT OPERATION ACCURACY

To put the result in perspective: a person is more likely to be struck by lightning in a given year (1 in 1.2 million) than for one of Oxford's quantum logic gates to make a mistake.

To perform useful calculations on a quantum computer, millions of operations will need to be run across many qubits. This means that if the error rate is too high, the final result of the calculation will be meaningless. Although error correction can be used to fix mistakes, this comes at the cost of requiring many more qubits. By reducing the error, the new method reduces the number of qubits required and consequently the cost and size of the quantum computer itself.

Co-lead author Molly Smith (Graduate Student, Department of Physics, University of Oxford), said: 'By drastically reducing the chance of error, this work significantly reduces the infrastructure required for error correction, opening the way for future quantum computers to be smaller, faster, and more efficient. Precise control of qubits will also be useful for other quantum technologies such as clocks and quantum sensors.'

NEW OXFORD PRINCIPLES SET TO GUIDE RESPONSIBLE CARBON TRADING UNDER THE PARIS AGREEMENT

Article 6 provides one of the greatest opportunities to drive additional climate mitigation and resilience. With global greenhouse gas emissions still rising and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) collectively falling critically short of the ambition needed to keep the Paris Agreement's goals within reach, there is an urgent need for effective tools to drive ambitious climate action.

If designed and implemented responsibly, Article 6 could serve as a tool to accelerate climate action, enabling countries to meet and enhance their NDCs, as well as public and private entities to work together to mobilise much-needed finance for climate mitigation and sustainable development.

However, evidence so far shows that this potential is at risk, and it could instead enable the greenwashing of climate commitments by countries and corporate entities alike.

OXFORD RESEARCHERS UNCOVER A POTENTIAL NEW THERAPEUTIC TARGET FOR A HARD-TO-TREAT FORM OF LEUKAEMIA

A new target for potential treatments for blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasm (BP-MPN), one of the most aggressive forms of leukaemia, has been identified by a research team at the University of Oxford. In a study published in Nature Genetics, researchers investigated the role of chromothripsis - a dramatic event in which chromosomes shatter and are stitched back together in disordered ways - in BP-MPN, a characteristically treatment-resistant type of leukaemia.

The team, led by the Mead Group at the MRC Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine (MRC WIMM), found that a quarter of patients with BP-MPN carried an abnormal gain of genetic material from chromosome 21, known as chr21amp. The team analysed samples from 64 patients with BP-MPN. In some cases, this abnormal gain was caused by chromothripsis, highlighting the disruptive impact of this phenomenon in cancer genomes.

Crucially, the study, which was supported by the National Institute for Health and Care Research Oxford Biomedical Research Centre, showed that this chromosome amplification was linked to poorer outcomes in patients with BP-MPN, making it a potential biomarker for more aggressive disease. Within the amplified region, researchers identified a single gene, DYRK1A, as consistently overexpressed and more accessible in the DNA of cancer cells carrying this abnormality.

Ozempic and Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound. These GLP-1 agonists and others-originally approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2005-have been all over the media, by turns called wonder drugs and cautionary crazes. Penn's School of Nursing is on the cutting edge when it comes to the study of GLP-1s and has been for years, uncovering myriad ways these medications impact the body, as well as new applications for their use.

While the original intent for GLP-1 medications was for diabetes care, its efficacy as a weight management drug means that researchers like Colleen Tewksbury, assistant professor in nutrition science, are looking closely at how people take it as a treatment for overweight and obesity-for instance, the medication's impact on micronutrient deficiencies resulting from weight loss. Little to no evidence currently exists in that area, and Tewksbury aims to fill this research gap.

As chair of psychiatry and the Ruth Meltzer Professor of Psychiatry at the Perelman School of Medicine, Maria Oquendo, has plenty of experience with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). So authoritative that it's often described as a "bible" for psychiatry, the DSM serves as the mental health field's definitive guide for the diagnosis of mental disorders. View large image Maria Oquendo. Maria Oquendo is the Ruth Meltzer Professor of Psychiatry at the Perelman School of Medicine. (Image: Courtesy of Penn Medicine News)

Oquendo, whose research focuses on suicide, uses the manual as a guide through the diagnostic process in her clinical work. But she saw a way to make the DSM even more precise. In 2013, Oquendo and several colleagues succeeded in getting suicidal behavior added as a standalone diagnosis to the appendix of the most recent edition, the DSM-5-TR. "It's a very laborious process because you need to basically write a thesis about why this is the right thing to do," she says.

New research in the field of psychiatry, a greater understanding of how environmental factors and social determinants of health (such as economic security or a safe place to live) impact stress and mental health, and the possibilities presented by artificial intelligence, are all reasons why the American Psychiatric Association (APA)-which publishes the DSM-is considering whether there may be a better way to identify and classify mental illness.

UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND: CONSPIRACY MENTALITY DRIVES MISINFORMATION ABOUT EVS

A University of Queensland-led study has found misinformation about electric vehicles (EVs) has taken root in society and is primarily fuelled by mistrust and conspiracy theories.

Dr Chris Bretter from the UQ Business School said surveys in Australia, the US, Germany and Austria found people were more likely to agree than disagree with misinformation on EVs - even among those who owned one.

"The misinformation statements we tested included that EVs are more likely to catch fire than petrol cars, do not produce emission savings and emit electromagnetic fields that damage health. all claims which are demonstrably false," Dr Bretter said.

"We know this sort of false information is out there and circulating, but the scale of acceptance is concerning and poses a significant challenge to the global transition to more sustainable transport.

"The fact that even EV owners were more likely than not to agree with misinformation underscores just how embedded it's become in society."

Ahead of this week's crucial United Nations ocean conference, federal Environment Minister Murray Watt promised that by 2030, 30% of Australian waters would be "highly protected".

This is a telling pledge. After all, 52% of Australian waters are now protected following years of rapid expansion. But many are "paper parks" - lines on a map with very little real protection.

Watt is proposing to expand the area under gold-standard protection, meaning fishing, mining and drilling would be banned inside the parks. This is welcome. But it must be done strategically, protecting ecologically representative and high biodiversity areas.

If Watt is serious, he must ensure these upgraded marine parks cover poorly protected habitats important for biodiversity. These include shallow coastal zones, submarine canyons, seamounts and rocky reefs on the continental shelf. It's not just about protecting 30% of the seas - marine parks must protect the full range of species and habitats in Australia.

As more and more people spend time chatting with artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots such as ChatGPT, the topic of mental health has naturally emerged. Some people have positive experiences that make AI seem like a low-cost therapist.

But AIs aren't therapists. They're smart and engaging, but they don't think like humans. ChatGPT and other generative AI models are like your phone's auto-complete text feature on steroids. They have learned to converse by reading text scraped from the internet.

When someone asks a question (called a prompt) such as "how can I stay calm during a stressful work meeting?" the AI forms a response by randomly choosing words that are as close as possible to the data it saw during training. This happens so fast, with responses that are so relevant, it can feel like talking to a person.

But these models aren't people. And they definitely are not trained mental health professionals who work under professional guidelines, adhere to a code of ethics, or hold professional registration.

Diabetic weight loss medications are effective for people with schizophrenia without affecting psychotic symptoms, University of Queensland researchers have found.

Professor of Psychiatry Dan Siskind said a 36-week trial found semaglutide - the active component in weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy - was effective for people with schizophrenia who often experienced weight gain from taking anti-psychotic medication.

He said patients often stopped taking prescribed medication clozapine because of weight gain, and this finding will help inform clinical treatment guidelines.

"People with schizophrenia have a 16-year life expectancy gap compared to the general population which is driven largely by obesity-related illnesses," Professor Siskind said.

"The study participants on semaglutide lost almost 14 per cent of their bodyweight across the trial, compared to those taking a placebo.

"Lamiya Cotton reached out to me when she was a senior in high school trying to decide if she wanted to come to USF. We had a wonderful conversation about USF and the Communication Studies department. She decided to come to USF and major in communication studies and she enrolled in my Communication & Everyday Life class during her first semester," said Eve-Anne Doohan, professor.

"Lamiya is a USF success story. She is quite simply an excellent student (3.92 overall GPA, 3.96 major GPA). But she is so much more than that. She worked all four years as the department student assistant. She was co-captain of the USF Spirit Squad, which she performed with for the past four years. She was on the executive board of VarCity, the USF hip-hop dance team."

Doohan continued, "She has done all of that while also completing numerous internships. Just two other facts about Lamiya: her parents are deaf and speak ASL. She could have easily tested out of her foreign language because of her fluency with ASL, but she instead chose to take three semesters of Japanese! And another fun fact about Lamiya and her family is that both of her parents are also graduating from college this year, on the same weekend as Lamiya." Source: Company Website

UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO: AI NARROWS THE PRODUCTIVITY GAP

Artificial intelligence (AI) impacts many industries and professions in different ways. A recent study looking at taxi drivers in Yokohama, Japan, shows that AI demand forecasting, which is unrelated to autonomous driving, can improve productivity in less-experienced drivers, helping close the skill gaps. This finding challenges the assumption that AI only favors high-skilled workers in technology-dependent industries.

The news is awash with stories about AI and the effects it can have on society - some news sites even have a dedicated tab for such stories. Though subjects vary, many stories raise the alarm about some potential negative impact or another. But researchers, including those from the University of Tokyo, have recently discovered something positive relating to the profession of taxi driving, with implications of a broader pattern at play.

Their study looked at an AI app used by taxi drivers to predict where customer demand will be highest and suggests optimal routes to them, the aim being to reduce time spent with no passengers, increasing overall efficiency. When comparing drivers with different levels of skills, and thus demand-forecasting ability, the team found that low-skilled drivers saw the biggest benefits, with a 7% productivity increase, while high-skilled drivers experienced little benefit.

UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO: SUPPORTING COGNITIVE FLEXIBILITY IN AUTISTIC INDIVIDUALS

Some autistic traits related to challenges with social interaction, mental flexibility and visual perception could be alleviated through a new, noninvasive therapy. A team of researchers, including those from the University of Tokyo, found that stimulating nerve cells when the brain becomes "stuck" in a certain state improves flexibility and relieves some autistic behaviors. The procedure utilized transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which is already used to treat certain mood disorders, in a novel manner. Over 40 adults with a mild form of autism participated, and the therapeutic effects lasted for up to two months after the last session. This study could contribute toward projects enabling new treatments.

The number of people diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been increasing for several decades, partly due to improved testing and also understanding of this broad developmental condition. ASD can affect how a person interacts socially and with their environment to varying degrees. This can manifest particularly tough challenges with communication and social interaction, as well as restrictive and repetitive behaviors.

Professor Takamitsu Watanabe, a psychiatrist and cognitive neuroscientist from the University of Tokyo's International Research Center for Neurointelligence (WPI-IRCN), became interested in ASD after listening to his patients. "I realized various autistic traits were not fully accounted for in a biologically comprehensive manner and thus, at least when I started my career as a psychiatrist some years ago, no neurobiological treatment was established. So, I began a series of studies," he said.

Through their research, Watanabe and co-authors found that autistic adults and children experience what they refer to as neural rigidity. While our brains typically transit frequently between different states, even when we are simply resting, for some individuals with ASD, these changes occur less often and the transition in between states is relatively rare.

UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO : FOR HER LEGAL LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE TO U OF T, PATRICIA JACKSON RECEIVES HONORARY DEGREE

Patricia Jackson has built a career arguing some of Canada's most high-profile and complex legal battles - all while advancing civil liberties and education behind the scenes.

Renowned for her work as a litigator at one of Bay Street's top law firms, Jackson is known for her sharp advocacy, commitment to issues of freedom of expression and her decades of volunteer service to the University of Toronto and the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.

Today, for her achievements as one of Canada's leading lawyers and for her outstanding service to the university, Jackson will receive a Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, from the University of Toronto.

Jackson excelled at math as a child, and, after high school, considered following in the footsteps of her father, Syd Jackson, then president and CEO of Manufacturers Life Insurance Co. But he talked her out of becoming an actuary. "He wasn't particularly encouraging - and on the whole he was an extremely encouraging father," she told the Law Times in 2009.

She enrolled in the chemistry program at Queen's University, but switched to math and political science after realizing she didn't like laboratory work. After graduating, Jackson worked as a researcher at Queen's Park for a special commission created by Premier Bill Davis's government.

When the commission's work ended two years later, she enrolled at U of T's Faculty of Law. Called to the bar in 1988, Jackson says she was grateful to have chosen law over actuarial science. The law, she noted, allowed her, "to think broadly in policy and advocacy terms about a range of subjects. All of those things were always of interest to me."

TORONTO TECH WEEK: NOBEL LAUREATE GEOFFREY HINTON AMONG U OF T HEADLINERS

What role can Canada play in the global technology revolution? What are the factors driving optimism and concern around artificial intelligence? How are entrepreneurs harnessing AI to build new ventures? " Nick Frosst (supplied image)

These are some of the themes that will be addressed by Geoffrey Hinton - a U of T University Professor Emeritus of computer science, the "godfather of AI" and recipient of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics - at a fireside chat held at U of T's Convocation Hall on June 25. Titled "Frontiers of AI," the conversation will feature Hinton in dialogue with alumnus Nick Frosst - co-founder of AI language processing startup Cohere, who was Hinton's first hire at Google Brain.

Part of the Desjardins Speaker Series, the fireside chat is one of the most highly anticipated events of the inaugural Toronto Tech Week, a showcase of Toronto's burgeoning tech and innovation sector that runs from June 23-27 (in-person tickets to the Convocation Hall event are sold out, but the discussion will be livestreamed globally).

The discussion will be followed by the Toronto Tech Week Lawn Party, an outdoor startup showcase and networking event held at the Knox College Quad and hosted by U of T in partnership with Desjardins and Dell Technologies. The gathering will showcase the myriad ways U of T is integrated with - and drives - Toronto's innovation ecosystem.

"We have 15 of our most impressive startups that will be demoing and exhibiting outdoors, and we've invited stakeholders from across the university to attend - from students and faculty members to staff and academic leaders," said Jon French, director of U of T Entrepreneurship.

French noted the lawn party will be attended by tech founders, corporate leaders, investors, researchers and industry partners who are looking to engage with the U of T Entrepreneurship community.

Comprising 12 campus linked-accelerators, U of T Entrepreneurship is one of the world's leading university business incubators. U of T entrepreneurs have created more than 1,200 venture-backed companies that have generated more than 17,000 jobs and raised over $12 billion in funding in the last five years alone.

"Our students, faculty members and staff are forging companies in emerging tech spaces such as AI and quantum computing, but also increasingly in the sustainability and climate realm," said French. "These businesses offer multi-pronged benefit to Canada, combining social impact - tackling some of the most pressing challenges of our time - while creating jobs and strengthening the economy."

ALAN TAYLOR, ACCLAIMED DIRECTOR OF TV AND FILM, RECEIVES U OF T HONORARY DEGREE

Before he became the go-to director for some of television's most unforgettable moments - such as Caesar's assassination in Rome or Ned Stark's beheading in Game of Thrones - Alan Taylor was a student at the University of Toronto, where he studied history and philosophy.​

Today, the award-winning filmmaker returns to U of T to receive a Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, in recognition of his extraordinary contributions to television and film, and for his enduring impact on the arts and entertainment industry.

Born in Brooklyn in 1959, Taylor spent much of his childhood in Ottawa. He first encountered the performing arts in high school, acting in a production of The Mouse That Roared. He went on to study at U of T, earning a bachelor of arts degree from Victoria College in 1981.

Taylor went on to pursue a master's degree in historical studies at Columbia University and later entered the film program at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where famed director Martin Scorsese was an instructor.

At NYU, he excelled, winning a Mobil film competition for his thesis project, That Burning Question. The success of the short led to a flurry of offers. Yet, while he aspired to follow in the footsteps of his indie film idols, including Jim Jarmusch and Martin Scorsese, he initially embarked in a different direction. His thesis film had caught the attention of Tom Fontana, then the showrunner for Homicide: Life on the Street. Fontana offered Taylor, a newcomer, a directing slot on the NBC police drama.

The opportunity was daunting. "I'd done nothing but make my little movies with my friends up to that point, and this was my first professional experience," Taylor told the Directors Guild.

The show's realistic style, using handheld cameras, was unusual at the time. Homicide directors were instructed to watch Jean-Luc Godard's film Breathless to learn "all the things you never do in TV."

In the early 1990s, he directed his first feature, Palookaville. The gangster comedy, produced on a shoestring budget, won Best First Feature at the Venice Film Festival but underperformed at the box office, causing Taylor some angst. "When you direct a movie that makes no money whatsoever, there is no rush to your door for the next one."

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON: WASHINGTON SCIENTISTS SAY BRAIN DRAIN HAS BEGUN AS RESEARCHERS CONSIDER MOVING ABROAD AMID TRUMP CUTS

As the Trump administration slashes federal support for biomedical research, centers and studies that rely on that money are stalled and aspiring scientists face uncertainty about the future of their careers.

While that might seem like another aspect of the "new normal" under President Donald Trump, for up-and-coming researchers like Kristin Weinstein, a PhD candidate in the Department of Immunology at the University of Washington, the cuts threaten her version of the American Dream.

"You're supposed to work hard and have a good life here," said Weinstein, who grew up an hour west of Chicago. "That's part of being an American. If you can't pursue your career here, then what are we doing?"

Weinstein is among thousands of the world's frontline scientists whose careers in the U.S. have been thrown into question by an administration that has gutted research funding, imperiled science-related jobs, and stalled the grant-approval process for clinical studies and research centers.

What began as a focus on creating supportive spaces for curious, collaborative students - often overlooked in traditional tech settings - quickly evolved into building the tools, communities and systems that could support student-led change at scale. It was a natural extension of the grassroots organizing and network-building work she began in high school.

UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO: RECLAIMING ANISHINAABEG MOSS BAGS FOR CULTURAL AND ECOLOGICAL HEALING

Culture doesn't vanish-it sleeps until stirred again. This idea lies at the heart of Samantha Terry's research on Anishinaabeg moss bags.

Terry, a fourth-year undergraduate student in the Faculty of Environment is Ojibwe from Temagami First Nation and of settler descent. Working with the Can-Peat research team at the WAMPUM Lab, her research documented the reclamation process of moss bags to relearn the ecological knowledge held by Indigenous mothers that connects the Anishinaabeg to peatlands.

Moss bags are made with fabric and leather which wrap tightly around an infant's body. Traditionally, they were made with hide and stuffed with sphagnum moss (aasaakamig), which acted as a diaper for the child. The bag was laced up at the front to ensure the infant's safety and create a tactile experience akin to the womb. Infants were placed in the bag from birth, allowing the mother to continue carrying her child while she did her day-to-day activities.

Award celebrates early-career nurse's dedication to mental health and community-focused care

University of Wollongong (UOW) Bega Valley graduate Stephanie Merton has been awarded the Southern NSW Local Health District 2025 New to Practice Nurse/Midwife of the Year Award.

The Southern NSW Local Health District Nurse of the Year awards recognise the skill, compassion and dedication of nurses.

The Merimbula-based local started studying nursing at UOW Bega Valley as a mature-age student in 2021. With experience in veterinary nursing and hospitality, she brought her passion for connecting with people to her new career.

"Having worked in hospitality for years, you see how important your connection with customers is. You are checking in on people. Getting to know your regulars. You realise you might be the only person that they see or talk to during the day. It was a skill I was keen to build on," Stephanie said.

In her first year at UOW, she received the inaugural Recovery Camp scholarship and attended a five-day Recovery Camp in Mount Evelyn Victoria as part of her compulsory mental health nursing placement. The camp brought together people with a lived experience of mental illness and UOW health students, allowing her to participate in recovery-oriented activities that fostered connection and wellbeing.

The term obstetric violence is a contested one among academics and health practitioners, but one of the accepted definitions is that it encompasses behaviours, actions and systemic practices or failures that result in the mistreatment, disrespect, abuse, humiliation, or neglect of women during pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum care.

STARLINK'S 'PHOTO-BOMBING' IMPACT ON SALT AND SKA A CONCERN - UWC PROFESSOR

The prospect of Elon Musk's satellite internet venture, Starlink, expanding its operations to South Africa has generated considerable excitement, particularly for its potential to bridge the digital divide in rural communities. However, experts in the field of astronomy are raising concerns about the unintended consequences of satellite constellations on South Africa's world-class radio telescopes.

University of the Western Cape (UWC) Professor Lerothodi Leeuw recently spoke to Cape Talk radio about the disruptive impact that Starlink and similar satellite networks could have on the country's premier astronomical facilities. Among those at risk are the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT), a state-of-the-art observatory in Sutherland, and the ambitious Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project, designed to unlock new insights into the universe.

Prof Leeuw likened the interference caused by satellites to a form of "photo-bombing," where artificial radio signals intrude upon critical observations. He emphasised that this issue is not new, but Starlink's growing prominence has renewed discussions around mitigating the effects of space-based transmissions.

In a quiet corner office at the UWC Sports Stadium, surrounded by the sounds of dreams being chased on the track, sits a man whose impact on student-athletes extends far beyond performance metrics or podium finishes.

Glen Bentley, Manager of Support Services & Athletics at UWC Sport, is more than just an administrator - he is a father figure to many.

Since joining the University of the Western Cape (UWC) on 3 January 2009, Bentley has been dedicated to building athletes, their character, confidence, and sense of community. While his job title may have changed over the years, his role in the lives of countless students has remained deeply personal and profoundly transformative.

FROM HOPE TO ACTION: UWC STUDENTS ON CHRISTIAN MISSION EMPOWER YOUNG LIVES IN UGANDA

Using faith, service, and scholarship, two postgraduate students from the University of the Western Cape (UWC) recently carried the spirit of transformation across borders into the heart of Uganda. Tamara Goliath and Monique Witbooi, both Master's students at UWC, embarked on a Christian mission journey that became a platform for something even greater - showcasing UWC as a beacon of educational hope, inclusion and empowerment.

"Education is the only possession that cannot be taken from me," a young refugee shared during one of their outreach sessions. For Goliath and Witbooi, these words encapsulated the mission not only of the Gospel but of UWC itself.

In partnership with the Pilgrim Center for Reconciliation in Uganda, and supported by staff members of the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program at UWC, the two students led an outreach session with more than 50 young people, many of them displaced by conflict or systemic hardship.

They shared their personal stories, introduced UWC's postgraduate opportunities, and explained the transformative impact of the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program which provides support for tuition fees and a range of specialised resources to facilitate scholars' transition into dignified and fulfilling work.

mRNA vaccine innovations are revolutionising how homegrown life-saving jabs can tackle persistent diseases like TB.

One reason that scientists like Dr Kristie Bloom would painstakingly work with minuscule particles and molecules in labs, over many years, is to create simpler and more swiftly manufactured vaccines that are designed to save lives.

Bloom is working off a long and necessary history-traditionally, vaccines work when a weakened virus, or a piece of the virus's protein, was injected into a patient to train their immune system to attack the actual virus when it enters their body. These vaccines saved lives, but they take a long time to make.

UTRECHT UNIVERSITY: PHD DEFENSE: LETS CHAT RSV: THE OUTPATIENT BURDEN AND NOVEL PREVENTIVE INTERVENTIONS

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is one of the most common causes of severe respiratory infections, particularly among young children and older adults, often leading to hospitalization. However, we still know surprisingly little about the impact of RSV outside hospital settings-especially in everyday healthcare setting like general practice.

New preventive tools, such as RSV vaccines and monoclonal antibodies, offer hope for protecting these vulnerable groups. But for policymakers to decide whether to include these tools in national immunization programs, accurate data on the burden of RSV-including in outpatient settings-is essential. This thesis therefore explores the impact of RSV in the community, focusing on young children and older adults. Drawing on large-scale prospective European studies, it shows that in young children, RSV accounts for about one in three respiratory infections during winter in primary care. These infections result in frequent doctor visits, parental work absences, and significant healthcare costs. Importantly, the thesis also demonstrates that RSV is a notable cause of illness in older adults, associated with nearly 1 in 7 respiratory infections in primary care. Although often overlooked, RSV in this group can lead to prolonged symptoms, frequent medical consultations, and financial strain-comparable to influenza.

UTRECHT UNIVERSITY: DEBYE LUNCH LECTURE - HENRIK SIEGEL MSC

Synthesis and formation mechanisms of nanoparticle-stabilized emulsion gels for membrane separations

Climate change and population growth are putting immense pressure on water resources. To produce clean water for daily life, porous separation membranes are needed. However, traditional separation membranes made of polymers are susceptible to fouling and chemical degradation, compromising filtration properties. Recently, bicontinuous interfacially jammed emulsion gels (bijels) have been introduced as robust membrane material with nanoparticle-covered surfaces that enhance stability. However, their formation via liquid/liquid phase separation and nanoparticle self-assembly involves complex interfacial stabilization mechanisms, which need to be controlled to produce bijel separation membranes.

We hypothesize that surface tension and particle wettability are the key drivers in interfacial bijel stabilization. To test our hypothesis, we study the effect of liquid composition on surface tension and particle self-assembly during bijel synthesis via solvent transfer induced phase separation (STrIPS) [1]. Revealing how the liquid composition governs the bijel structure, the fabrication of bijels via roll-to-roll film coating is introduced [2]. As these STrIPS-bijel films are made using surfactant-modified nanoparticles, we detail how the simultaneous presence of surfactants and particles at liquid/liquid interfaces affects the rigidity of colloidal assemblies in bijel stabilization [3]. To refine control over the bijel structure in roll-to-roll coating, we analyze how substrate wetting affects the membrane uniformity [4]. The resulting fundamental insights into the self-assembly and bijel formation kinetics allow us to demonstrate the application of bijels for filtration with controlled selectivity and pH-responsive flux.

UTRECHT UNIVERSITY: NUMBER OF ANIMAL EXPERIMENTS AT UTRECHT UNIVERSITY AND UMC UTRECHT DECLINES FURTHER IN 2024

"We are pleased that the number of animal experiments has decreased for the second year in a row and that our efforts to replace and reduce animal testing are increasingly bearing fruit", says Pascalle van Loo, head of the Animal Welfare Body Utrecht. "Just like last year, we see that the reduction is mainly due to a decline in the use of mice and rats at both Utrecht University and UMC Utrecht."

Van Loo expects an overall downward trend at both institutions. "Fluctuations in experiments involving large numbers of animals can however still affect the totals. For instance, a future experiment involving zebrafish could cause the number of animal experiments to rise again next year. But looking at the longer term, I expect the downward trend to continue." Invisible animal use

For the first time, the 2024 Annual Report on Animal Experiments also sheds light on so-called 'invisible animal use' in research. Animal-free techniques, such as growing cells and organs, are on the rise. However, these often rely on animal-derived products, such as fetal calf serum which is derived from unborn calves and so-called 'basement membrane extracts' which are derived from mouse tumors. Over a period of nine years, the 3Rs Centre Utrecht has inventorized the amount of fetal calf serum and basement membrane extracts used. On average, Utrecht University and UMC Utrecht together used 795 liters of fetal calf serum and 9.8 liters of basement membrane extract per year. Producing these quantities requires approximately 1,600 calves and 2,000 mice annually. These animals are not included in the official statistics on the number of experimental animals used.

"To counter this invisible animal use, we actively promote the use of animal-free alternatives. We do this amongst others by the development and hosting of publicly accessible, searchable databases for animal-free alternatives", says Jeffrey Bajramovic, head of the 3Rs Centre Utrecht. "In the coming years, we will continue to monitor developments in invisible animal use."

UTRECHT UNIVERSITY: PHD DEFENCE: UNRAVELLING THE PHYSICAL AND ECOLOGICAL DRIVERS OF THE DEVELOPMENT RATE OF SEDIMENT EROSION RESISTANCE IN TIDAL MARSHES

Climate change effects, such as sea-level rise, lead globally to increased flood and erosion risks. Several ecosystems can contribute to nature-based flood and erosion risk mitigation, and tidal marshes are one of these, as they can attenuate waves, reduce shoreline erosion, and accumulate sediment to keep up with sea-level rise. There is therefore an increasing interest in restoring and creating tidal marshes for nature-based flood risk mitigation. However, natural, restored, and created tidal marshes should be erosion resistant to provide flood risk mitigation on the long-term. Although we are increasingly understanding which factors drive erosion resistance in tidal marshes, it remains unknown how long it takes sediment to become erosion resistant in natural, restored, and created tidal marshes, and how far in advance marsh restoration or creation must be started before marshes are needed for flood risk mitigation. This thesis therefore seeks to improve our knowledge on the development rates of erosion resistance and how these are affected by physical and ecological drivers. We found that vegetation species and sediment characteristics are key drivers of the development rate of erosion resistance. Sedimentation rates, drainage, and tidal inundation duration also influence the development rate of erosion resistance. Additionally, we found that the development of erosion resistance can be fast (less than 6 years) under densely growing pioneer vegetation species. It is crucial to assess the conditions at a planned marsh restoration or creation site and the expected development of erosion resistance, and to give the system enough time to develop erosion resistance before it is needed for flood risk mitigation.

Lithuania stands out globally for its rapidly developing light technology industry, with lasers playing a key role in this important ecosystem. The laser infrastructure at Vilnius University's (VU) Faculty of Physics is equally renowned for its international outlook and open science practices. Long-standing collaboration between the academic community and industry here drives innovative solutions.

Students at the Faculty gain hands-on experience already during their undergraduate studies and are encouraged to contribute to scientific research, forming early connections with future colleagues in the laboratories. This attracts not only Lithuanian but also international students.

The alumna shares her challenges, experiences, and discoveries at the Faculty.

What inspired you to choose the STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) field? Why did you decide to become a physicist?

I was deeply interested in physics. I used to stay up late watching videos about particle physics and cosmology. I would attend any seminar or event I could find. It all gave me a sense of purpose. Looking back, I realise that perhaps it wasn't physics itself that mattered most, but the sense of wonder it sparked in me - physics opened the door to things beyond regular comprehension and everyday talk.

VILNIUS UNIVERSITY: DR PAULIUS JURCYS: A NEW SOCIAL CONTRACT. RECLAIMING OWNERSHIP OF OUR DATA

Robotu kavine autoriaus asmeninio archyvo nuotrIn the age of rapidly advancing artificial intelligence (AI), where powerful algorithms can predict human behaviour and changes in the world around us, we find ourselves in a paradoxical situation: we live under the illusion that our personal data belongs to us, yet in reality, it remains beyond our reach. We have little genuine influence over how technology companies like Facebook, Amazon, OpenAI, Google, Apple, and others use our data.

Who really controls our data?

This raises a fundamental question: if we do not own our data, then who does?

Picture this: a few months ago, someone bought the latest Japanese Mitsubishi Outlander model. Every time the engine is started, a message appears on the screen: 'All your vehicle data is collected for product development and research purposes. If you wish to limit data transmission to Mitsubishi Motors, press the INFO button.' A car used daily has suddenly become more than just a vehicle - it is now a mobile data collection platform. However, is it really desirable for our driving habits and even personal routes to end up stored in the databases of large corporations?

Another example concerns the fairness of social media platforms. In September 2024, LinkedIn quietly updated its terms of use and announced that users' posts and other profile information would be used to improve the AI models used by LinkedIn. When the news was revealed by 'The Verge' journalists, many of LinkedIn's 930 million users felt betrayed. 'Why wasn't I asked for consent?' they wondered, sparking debates around fairness in the data market. This case again demonstrated how users are often excluded from decisions that directly affect their privacy.

Dr Mindaugas Sarpis, a researcher at the Institute of Photonics and Nanotechnology, Faculty of Physics, Vilnius University (VU), and leader of the LHCb Vilnius group, has been awarded a prestigious ERA Fellowship grant under "Horizon Europe" funding programme for his postdoctoral research. The funding, amounting to almost 200,000 Eur, will strengthen Lithuania's competences in particle physics and lay the foundations for further research at VU.

Using a novel method, this grant will enable a 2-year research project called PHANTOM (Pentaquark Hunt by Applying Neutral Track Over-constraint Method) to search for particles, specifically pentaquarks.

This funding became possible due to the new EU funds redistribution mechanism, which allows up to 5% of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) resources to be directed to the "Horizon Europe" program. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lithuania allocated 18.5 million euros for the 2024-2025 period, part of which can be used for highly-rated MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships projects that did not receive funding due to the limited call budget.

VCU HEALTH AND VMFA ORGANIZE EXHIBIT TOURS TO PROVIDE A SENSE OF NORMALCY FOR ALS AND PLS PATIENTS

For anyone who appreciates and observes art, studying its layers and beauty is an adventure. In turn, observing the beauty of human interaction and relationships can be just as meaningful.

On a sunny afternoon in the spring, a beautiful piece of humanity was taking shape in the atrium of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA). It wasn't commissioned or purchased. It was fate.

"Today we are going to visit the contemporary art section of the museum. Everyone, hop on the elevator to floor two," directed Gerry Seeber, a volunteer tour guide who spends her days with partner tour guide Pam Tinsley. Today's group is admittedly one of their favorites. They spend a lot of time preparing for this group.

"This is the first tour I've ever taken. I learned a lot more than I do just moseying about," said Larry McCann, who attended with his sister-in-law. It's a lot harder for Larry to "mosey" these days because he has primary lateral sclerosis (PLS).

WAGENINGEN UNIVERSITY & RESEARCH: INSTRUMENTALISING EMOTIONS - HOW DYNAMICS BETWEEN SITUATIONS AND EMOTIONS SHAPE DECISION-MAKING

Emotions motivate many choices, like what people buy and eat. Emotions are often seen as impulsive or irrational. This thesis, however, shows that emotions can help people make thoughtful long-term decisions, depending on the situation. Across multiple studies, emotions and situations show to be tightly linked: how people feel shapes how they see and choose situations, and these situations in turn influence how emotions guide decisions. Emotions trigger competing goals, and the situation determines which goal people prioritize. For example, pride motivates indulgence in a bar, but perseverance in an office. Importantly, when people can choose their situation, they make goal-directed choices, like visiting a gift shop to repair guilt. But when forced into a situation, emotions motivate indulgence. These findings challenge existing research and highlight the instrumentality of emotions in real life, especially when people can freely choose environments that support what truly matters.

WAGENINGEN UNIVERSITY & RESEARCH: CHARACTERIZATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF A CHO ANTIBODY MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Summary

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are crucial in the pharmaceutical industry, playing a key role in disease treatment, diagnostics, and analytics. Traditionally, mAbs are produced using Chinese hamster ovary cells and defined production processes. This study focused on enhancing the characterization of producer cells and refining manufacturing processes to further drive down the production cost of mAbs. Initially, various cell lines were monitored to identify factors that enhance performance and minimize specific impurities. Subsequently, innovative hybrid process strategies were developed to improve manufacturing efficiency. By advancing the understanding of cell lines and optimizing process strategies, the study makes a substantial contribution to the pharmaceutical industry's mission to make life-saving therapies more accessible and affordable.

WESTERN STUDY SHOWS MINDFULNESS LAW COURSE POSITIVELY IMPACTS STUDENT WELL-BEING

When Thomas Telfer was first introduced to the concept of mindfulness more than 10 years ago, he was skeptical.

The Western law professor was hospitalized for the depression and mood disorder he had been battling since his time as a young first-year legal associate. He looked down in surprise at the patient calendar of activities, featuring mindfulness alongside educational workshops, recreational activities and group therapy.

The class involved sitting in a circle and breathing, based on evidence it would lead to improved mental health.

Thomas Telfer (Anna Toth)

Telfer initially rejected the idea. "I thought it was a waste of time," he said.

However, over time he discovered daily mindfulness had a profound impact on his mental health. It brought him clarity, focus and a sense of calm.

He also gained a deeper understanding of the practice, universally described as paying attention to what's happening in the present moment in the mind, body and external environment, with an attitude of curiosity and kindness.

Heading into her second year at Western, Hilary Bruce had a lot to look forward to - living off campus with friends, continuing her studies in integrated science and returning to the pool as a Mustang varsity athlete.

After training hard all summer, she was ready to dive in.

But her first few swims in the early fall of 2021 raised an alarm.

"As an athlete, you're taught to listen and be in tune with your body. I knew something was wrong because I just felt awful," Bruce said.

The exhaustion and nagging cough that started as she wrapped up O-week as an off-campus orientation leader persisted three weeks later.

Her shoulder and face became swollen, her chest a map of pronounced veins.

A scan in the emergency room at University Hospital in Bruce's hometown of London, Ont. showed a 10-centimetre mass in her chest.

"It was restricting my blood flow. That's why my face was swollen, because when I laid down, all the blood would pool there. It was the same with all the veins in my chest. My vessels were rerouting because they couldn't follow their normal path."

WESTERN UNIVERSITY: NEW MACHINE LEARNING MODEL IMPROVES EARLY TSUNAMI WARNINGS

History has a way of repeating itself. But unlike science, built on general principles and testable theories about the natural world, history examines past events and human actions using evidence and interpretation. This delineation is critical when predicting earthquakes and tsunami waves for Canada's west coast, as researchers just don't have the scientific data required to make communities safe - at least not yet - so current calculations are informed by historic natural disasters in faraway places like Japan and Indonesia.

Katsu Goda (Mitch Zimmer)

To counter this dearth of data, a new Western study buoyed traditional statistics with novel machine learning techniques, using artificial intelligence, to test early warning models for Tofino, B.C. - a popular surfing and tourist destination on Vancouver Island's west coast.

Overall, the collected data shows waiting longer to issue a tsunami early warning message performs better in terms of safely and orderly evacuating the most amount of people than a shorter response time. However, this approach is problematic as longer waiting times may make warning messages less effective and ultimately, more deadly for evacuees and emergency responders.

Western's Centre for Teaching and Learning is using a weekly challenge to encourage exploration and deep thinking about artificial intelligence (AI).

The Generative AI Challenge is a free, eight-week project designed to help participants "untangle" the complicated realities and use of AI. Weekly exercises and mini-lessons - each one created by a different Western faculty, staff or student "challenger" - are posted online and emailed to participants.

From rewriting a song in a new genre to an online quiz gauging participants' feelings on AI, the goal of the challenge is to share diverse perspectives and empower people to engage in informed discussions around AI.

The GenAI Challenge tackles big themes, like the role and impact of AI on creativity and relationships.

"Rather than challenging folks to adopt and use AI technologies in specific ways, the foundational goal of this series is to challenge participants to expand their ways of thinking about generative AI technologies and their impact, both positive and negative, by building knowledge," said Dani Dilkes, e-learning and curriculum specialist at the Centre for Teaching and Learning.

As Canada prepares to host this year's G7 summit in Kananaskis, Alta., global uncertainty is reshaping one of the world's most influential alliances.

Trade tensions, rising authoritarianism, digital disruption in the form of artificial intelligence and climate instability are just some of the immediate challenges facing the economic bloc. Western News spoke with Andreas Schotter, professor of international business at Ivey Business School, to understand what's at stake for Canada, and how the country can use its role as host to provide meaningful global leadership. Western News: What is the G7, and why does it still matter in 2025?

Andreas Scotter (AS): The G7 is a gathering of seven advanced democracies, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States, along with the European Union, which participates but is not counted as an official member state. It was formed in the 1970s to tackle global economic shocks and remains a key forum for democratic nations to coordinate on trade, security, technology and other global challenges.

In a world increasingly shaped by trade wars, regional conflicts and technological disruption, the G7's relevance comes from its collective economic and technological influence, and its shared commitment to democratic values. But its influence is being tested by emerging alliances like BRICS and ASEAN, which are redrawing the global power map.

"I wasn't sure what dentistry looked like on a daily basis," said the Edmonton-born graduate, who always enjoyed science and working with her hands. "But as I looked more into the dental profession, I was hooked."

Now, as she graduates with a doctor of dental surgery from Schulich Medicine & Dentistry, Mattern will be joining that same practice part-time.

WESTERN UNIVERSITY: EXPERT INSIGHT: THE UNKNOWN CONDITION CAUSING VOMITING IN YOUTHS USING CANNABIS

As cannabis use among youth rises in Canada - and THC potency reaches record highs - emergency departments are seeing a surge in cases of a once-rare condition: cannabis hyperemesis syndrome (CHS).

Characterized by relentless vomiting, abdominal pain and temporary relief through compulsive hot showers or baths, CHS is increasingly affecting adolescents and young adults. Yet few people - including many clinicians - know it exists.

As public health and substance use researchers, and authors of a recent review on CHS in youth, we are struck by how misunderstood and misdiagnosed this condition remains.

WESTERN UNIVERSITY: SCHULICH GRAD ANSWERS CALL FOR CARE IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES

As the cod fishing industry struggled in Newfoundland in the late 1990s, and other industries started slowing down, 10-year-old Aaron Lewis and his parents moved to Southwestern Ontario to find work and a new life.

Coming from the 200-person fishing village of Fleur de Lys, they left behind family and friends.

But for Lewis, who is of mixed settler and Mi'kmaq Indigenous roots, not all was left behind. He brought the influences of his grandmother, Madeline, who served a wide geographic area as a nurse in the Baie Verte Hospital.

"Growing up, my grandmother was always the person in our small town who people went to. She would help anyone who was sick; she was the person everyone would call," said Lewis.

Now, as he graduates with his doctor of medicine from Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, Lewis reflects on a path shaped by Grandma Madeline's influence and looks ahead to his upcoming family medicine residency in Hanover, Ont.

WESTERN UNIVERSITY: CLINICAL TRIAL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVES BLOOD CLOT DETECTION IN STROKE PATIENTS

A groundbreaking clinical trial led by London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute (LHSCRI) and Western's Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry may enhance how medical professionals detect hidden blood clots responsible for strokes.

The study, published in The Lancet Neurology, is the first to show that extending imaging to include the heart within minutes of a patient's arrival to hospital with an acute stroke significantly improves the ability to determine the stroke's underlying cause. This innovative diagnostic approach can be used to determine an effective and tailored treatment plan for preventing future strokes.

Strokes caused by blood clots or other mechanisms that obstruct blood flow in the brain account for about 85 per cent of all strokes. In this study, scientists from LHSCRI and Schulich Medicine & Dentistry set out to determine whether strokes with undetermined causes could be identified using computed tomography (CT) scans that include images of the heart and aorta, a main blood vessel.

WWU graduate research assistant Colby Rand and Associate Professor of Environmental Sciences (ESCI) Alia Khan recently published a comparison of commercial small satellites, called SmallSats, and traditional satellite remote sensing technology to assess the strengths and limitations of each for mapping snow algae.

Algae on snow and ice can reduce surface albedo - the ability to reflect light and heat - and may accelerate snow melt. Any darkening on the surface of snow or ice is akin to wearing a dark shirt on a sunny day, which will make you retain more heat than if you were wearing a light one.

The artist Georgio de Chirico was known for his bold, surrealist paintings of town squares, mannequins and statuary - images that reflect his affection for classical antiquity and modern philosophical thought using illogical perspective and disquieting juxtapositions.

While his paintings influenced artists like Rene Magritte, Salvador Dali, and Andre Breton, de Chirico was also a poet, essayist and novelist.

One of his novels, "Mr. Dudron," has been translated by WWU Associate Professor of English Stefania Heim. She "found" de Chirico through a friend and said she was hooked.

WWU Assistant Professor of Chemistry Jay McCarty has been awarded a $676,280 CAREER grant by the National Science Foundation, the foundation's most prestigious award in support of early-career faculty.

The five-year grant will support McCarty's research into a class of proteins called intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs).

Unlike other proteins, IDPs are highly flexible.

"IDPs don't settle into just one shape," McCarty said. "Instead, they are constantly wiggling and shifting between different forms, like a shapeshifting puzzle piece." Person with brown hair and a beard wearing a blue shirt, standing indoors near a wooden door. Jay McCarty

Despite not having a fixed structure, the proteins are still able to carry out highly specific functions and often play key roles in maintaining cellular health. However, their high flexibility also makes them prone to sticking together. In recent years scientists have discovered that the proteins do this by separating from the rest of the fluid material inside like cell - like oil separating from water - to form droplet-like structures, called biomolecular condensates, that help regulate activities inside the cell.

WROCLAW UNIVERSITY OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND LIFE SCIENCES: RETHINKING URBAN MOBILITY: CLEAN AIR, INCLUSIVE CITIES, AND THE FUTURE OF TRANSPORT

The podcast explores the challenges and opportunities related to sustainable urban mobility, air quality, and the future of city living. Key themes include the impact of transport systems on wellbeing, the political nature of mobility policies, and the importance of inclusive urban planning.

One focus is on how traffic reduction measures and low-emission zones, when well-planned and clearly communicated, can significantly improve urban air quality and public acceptance over time. Examples show that while such initiatives often face resistance initially, they tend to gain support once residents experience tangible benefits like cleaner air and better public spaces.

The discussion also highlights Poland's particularly severe air pollution problem, linked to widespread car dependency and outdated vehicle fleets. While awareness is growing, the country is still in early stages of adopting clean transport policies and infrastructure. The availability of charging stations, electric public transport, and incentives for electric vehicle adoption remain limited.

Cultural habits, economic transitions, and urban infrastructure all contribute to continued reliance on cars. However, younger generations in some countries are beginning to move away from car ownership, influenced by urban living, environmental awareness, and the high costs associated with driving.

YALE UNIVERSITY: UPDATING AN OLD TECHNOLOGY FOR THE QUANTUM AGE

The device known as the Fabry-Perot resonator is indispensable for optical clocks, quantum technologies, and other applications. It's a structure made of two mirrors that reflect light back and forth. Its stability, which makes it such a crucial component, comes from operating in a vacuum. Optimizing their use on certain microchips, though, has proved tricky. Recently a team of researchers in the lab of Peter Rakich, the Dubinsky Professor of Applied Physics, developed an ingenious solution. The results are published in Nature Photonics.

YALE, OTHER UNIVERSITIES FILE BRIEF IN CASE AIMING TO PRESERVE RESEARCH FUNDING THAT BENEFITS AMERICA

Yale and 23 other research universities filed a legal brief Monday to aid judicial review in a lawsuit about the federal government's freeze on research funding. The suit aims to preserve critical support that has fueled American innovation, economic growth, and key medical advances.

In an amicus curiae, or "friend of the court," brief filed in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts, the institutions argue that "terminating funding to universities jeopardizes American innovation and economic growth by severely limiting their ability to play their vital, longstanding roles in expanding scientific knowledge."

The brief, related to a lawsuit filed by Harvard, explains that federal investment in scientific research at the nation's universities over the past 80 years "has fueled American leadership at home and abroad, yielding radar technology that helped the Allies win World War II, computer systems that put humans on the Moon, and a vaccine that saved millions during a global pandemic."

It argues that broad cuts to federal research funding endanger "this longstanding, mutually beneficial arrangement between universities and the American public.

RISING YALE SENIOR NAMED BEINECKE SCHOLAR

Jaleyna Lawes, a member of the Yale College Class of 2026, has been awarded a Beinecke Scholarship, which will support her pursuit of a Ph.D. in history.

She was one of 20 college juniors nationwide to receive the competitive scholarship, which supports students of exceptional promise who plan to continue their studies in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

Lawes, who is also a Mellon Mays Fellow at Yale, is majoring in the History of Science, Medicine, and Public Health, with interests at the intersection of race, gender, disability, and the more-than-human world across the Black Atlantic.

In her research, she examines British ship logs, legal records, colonial correspondence, parliamentary testimonies, and enslaved women's narratives to trace discourses of madness as mapped onto captive women aboard British slave ships in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, while also considering such "mad" embodiments as sites of rupture, refusal, and fugitivity for women positioned at the nexus of racialized and gendered violence. In particular, she explores how captive women's perceived proximity to nature shaped racialized, gendered discourses of madness, while attending to the intimate entanglements between captive women and the more-than-human world both as instruments of captivity and vessels for embodiment and relation otherwise.

YALE UNIVERSITY: CANNABIS USE DISORDER MAY INCREASE RISK FOR CERTAIN PSYCHIATRIC ILLNESSES

Pot. Weed. Mary Jane. Dope. Cannabis goes by many names. The drug has had a rocky history in the United States, but today, many states have legalized cannabis use or made it available with a doctor's prescription.

A research team led by Yale scientists evaluated the relationship between cannabis use traits and psychiatric disorders. Their results, published recently in Nature Mental Health, show that cannabis use disorder places people at increased risk of developing several psychiatric disorders, providing beneficial guidance that public health professionals can use to gauge the potential utility of cannabis for their patients.

"Sometimes in the news, you can read an article that says cannabis can benefit mental health disorders, or it can be used to try to mitigate the effects of some other substance use disorders," says Marco Galimberti, PhD, associate research scientist at Yale School of Medicine (YSM) and first author on the study. "In our study, we show that people who develop cannabis use disorder can actually have a higher risk of developing psychiatric disorders."
