AALTO UNIVERSITY: SATELLITE IMAGES REVEAL THE POSITIVE EFFECTS OF RESTORATION IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE PEATLANDS
An international research team led by Aalto University has just published the first large-scale analysis based on long-term satellite data on the effects of peatland restoration.
The lead author of the study, Postdoctoral Researcher Iuliia Burdun from Aalto University, explains that NASA's satellite image time series were analyzed over a period of more than 20 years.
The researchers examined key climate variables of peatlands: temperature, vegetation, and albedo, that is, the proportion of sunlight the surface reflects into space.
The study showed clear changes roughly a decade after restoration measures began.
'The albedo and temperature of restored areas began to resemble intact peatlands rather than drained peatlands, across nearly all the studied areas,' Burdun summarizes.
The study covered 72 areas in Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States - countries where peatlands cover a significant portion of the land area.
The sites included wooded and open peatlands, peat extraction areas, and peatlands drained for agriculture.

AALTO UNIVERSITY HERD IMMUNITY MAY NOT WORK HOW WE THINK
In the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, governments around the world scrambled to find the best strategy for containing the virus. Should they aim for elimination? Focus on protecting the vulnerable? Or, controversially, let the virus run its course to build herd immunity through natural infection? With limited data and high uncertainty, decisions were often made based on simplified models of how diseases spread through populations.

The event, organised by the Catalan Association of Public Universities (ACUP) and the institutes of education studies of the eight Catalan public universities, sought to recognise the trajectory of this space for meeting and reflection on university teaching and teaching innovation, which since 2000 has consolidated itself as an international benchmark.

Teaching innovation is a shared responsibility with our entire university community that helps us grow as a university and better respond to the educational challenges of our time". Edelmira Badillo, director of the ICE, highlighted the role of the CIDUI as a catalyst for change and collaboration: "The CIDUI has been and continues to be an essential space for sharing experiences, and generating and building knowledge among teachers committed to a university that believes in quality teaching".

AUTONOMOUS UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA ICPS STUDY DELVES INTO THE ARGUMENTATION GAP BETWEEN BOYS AND GIRLS REGARDING EQUALITY AND FEMINISM
The Institute of Political and Social Sciences (ICPS), a consortium of the UAB and the Barcelona Provincial Council, has published the booklet Nois, noies i un abisme. Opinions sobre la igualtat i el feminisme [Boys, Girls and an Abyss. Opinions on Equality and Feminism]. Among the conclusions this new research offers is the confirmation of a neo-machist system of thought penetrating society.
The study, prepared by Maria Freixanet, Jana Pous and Jose Berna, analyses recurrent discourses among young people on issues such as male chauvinism, feminism, egalitarian values and the relationships between these issues, and certifies a clear distance between the opinions expressed by each group.
The study was carried out between October and December 2024 using a qualitative methodology, with focus groups, working with small groups of boys and girls in their fourth year of secondary school, aged between 14 and 15 years, from nine different secondary schools in the province of Barcelona, both public and private, located in socially and economically different neighbourhoods in terms of income and not only in Barcelona city, but also in its surrounding areas. Each class group was divided into three subgroups: one of boys, one of girls and one mixed, of about 8-10 people each. A total of 239 adolescents participated. This system, with small groups, made it easier to grasp the complexity of the opinions expressed, the weight of the different arguments, and the areas of consensus.

AUTONOMOUS UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA ONE IN FOUR SPANIARDS ALLOCATES MOST OF THEIR INCOME TO HOUSING
This is revealed by a report prepared by the ICTA-UAB, which analyzes the growing housing crisis in Spain and in eight other European countries. The study highlights how the rise in housing prices and poor housing quality are worsening structural inequalities throughout the country and warns about the progressive aging of the housing stock in rural areas.
The National Report on Housing Inequalities in Spain, prepared by the ICTA-UAB, notes that the percentage of income allocated to housing reaches 37% in the case of tenants in the free market. As a result, energy poverty affects up to 28% of Spanish households, one of the highest rates in the European Union.
The report, which is part of the European ReHousin project, examines housing conditions and provides a comprehensive analysis of how affordability, housing quality, and regional inequalities have evolved in Spain over the past thirty years. According to its findings, overcrowding and poor housing conditions-dampness, noise pollution, and lack of natural light-are disproportionately experienced by immigrants, low-income families, and urban tenants.

BANGOR UNIVERSITY: OBITUARY: DAVID COUSINS, ACCOMPLISHED SONGWRITER, LONG-TIME LEADER OF THE STRAWBS AND INDEPENDENT LOCAL RADIO ENTREPRENEUR
Born into a working-class family in West London, David had a unique, varied and distinguished career. He was one of the most distinctive singer-songwriters to emerge from the British scene in the 1960s before becoming a pioneer of independent local radio in the 1980s and 1990s. After twenty years in the radio business, musical composition and performance once again became his main focus. His contribution to British songwriting is immense. He has left us with a rich, deep and varied body of finely crafted songs and recordings. However, in David's own words, from Hanging in the Gallery, one of his most exceptional songs, "He is silent now, will sing no more."
David co-founded the Strawberry Hill Boys with Tony Hooper in 1963; they became the Strawbs in 1967, releasing their first album in 1969. Over a 60-year period, the Strawberry Hill Boys and then the Strawbs saw many musicians come and go. However, throughout all those years and all those changes, there has been just one ever present constant in all the Strawbs' published recordings: David Cousins. His innovative songwriting skills, distinctive musical sound and idiosyncratic vocal style have shaped the sound of the Strawbs from the beginning to the end. David also released a series of solo and collaborative albums with other artists between 1972 and 2015.
He was born David Joseph Hindson on 7th January 1940 in St Giles Hospital in South London, the only son of Joseph Hindson and Violet Irene Luck. David's father was killed in action in the first year of the Second World War when David was just seven months old. When David was six years old, his mother married Jack Cousins and David's surname was changed to that of his stepfather. He attended Thames Valley Grammar School in Twickenham where he met future Strawbs member, Tony Hooper on his first day. After finishing school, he created a skiffle group with Tony Hooper and two friends called the Gin Bottle Four before attending the University of Leicester where he studied for a General Degree, majoring in Mathematics and Statistics. He was heavily involved in the student music scene at Leicester and he founded the University Folk Society, in addition to being President of the Jazz Club which ran in the basement of the Students' Union building.

For many high school students, summer time means a break, but for some-and for Bethel-it's an opportunity to pivot and experience something new. Bethel's Royal Academy summer camps encourage young people to explore their interests so that they can discover their passion, while also experiencing Bethel and a taste of college firsthand.
This year, Royal Academy welcomed 163 students in June-one of its largest turnouts to date. This student interest is thanks in part to Bethel's partnership with State Farm, who invested $37,000 this year, allowing Bethel to expand camp offerings and student capacity.
Because of State Farm's investment, all camps were overnight experiences. Students stayed in residence halls with a team of staff and student hosts. This invited authentic mentorship opportunities as Bethel leaders led small group activities, ate meals with students, and helped them navigate campus.

Sometimes, an experience can shift your entire vision - how you see yourself, what you imagine for your future, where you belong.
After rising senior Sofia Corsico-Sanchez applied to OCEAN CORE Academy in College Station, Texas, she promptly forgot about it. Geology, after all, is her minor; she's majoring in biology and environmental science, and is more interested in animal life than deep-sea sediment.
Offered by the International Ocean Discovery Program's (IODP) U.S. Science Support office, the program's full name is Ocean Core Exploration As New Investigators Community Outreach and Research Experiences. It's a land-based successor to IODP's prior JR Academy summer program.
Corsico-Sanchez's acceptance email came as a shock. As the designated week in June approached, she felt anxious - and, admittedly, like an impostor. She soon discovered that the scientific world has many diverse paths, including her own.
"I would say I'm a lowly bio major in the world of geology, but they really took me in," she said. "And it feels like now that the experience really brought all of these sectors together, even though it was a geology-centric program. People were doing all these different things, and it reminded me that science isn't black and white."

Plastic is also piling up around the globe, with disintegrating bottles and bags leading to increasing fears about microplastics getting into our water supplies and our bodies.
Imagine if even a fraction of our food waste could be turned into biodegradable plastic - solving two problems and making our planet healthier in the long term.
A team at Binghamton University is doing pioneering research on this idea, and they recently published a paper in the journal Bioresource Technology offering fundamental findings for any company interested in scaling up the process.

BOISE STATE UNIVERSITY: STRENGTHENING TEACHING, STRENGTHENING EDUCATION: BOISE STATE'S IMPACTFUL RESEARCH
This year, three Boise State faculty presented at the 2025 EdMedia World Conference on Educational Technology, in Barcelona, Spain. The presentation, "Building Connections and Confidence Through a Customized Online Adjunct Faculty Learning Community," was delivered by Heather Sanders, principal instructional specialist and Jennifer Obenshain, clinical professor and Master of Social Work Online program coordinator. While unable to attend, Amy Vecchione, assistant director of eCampus Research and Innovation, contributed to the research and acceptance of the presentation.
The work focuses on finding better ways to support part-time online instructors who don't have the same access to resources as full-time instructors. Many colleges depend on these adjunct faculty, but these instructors sometimes feel isolated and disconnected. Boise State's Master of Social Work Online program has created a supportive network where small groups of adjunct faculty can meet online for nine weeks to share their experiences, exchange ideas, and build their confidence in their teaching.
"Through every aspect of the work Heather and Jennifer conducted to create an adjunct faculty learning community they modeled the effective pedagogy and practices for online teaching and learning," Vecchione said. "The adjunct faculty learning community is an exemplary project that ought to be emulated."
"While supporting and designing space for adjunct faculty to connect, grow, and learn is my favorite part of this endeavour, I deeply enjoy collaborating with departments and faculty from across the university," Sanders said. "Supporting adjunct faculty is not a task for just one or two people-it takes a team of adjunct instructor advocates. I genuinely feel that together we have built a supportive experience for our online adjunct instructors to feel heard, seen, and valued."

BROWN UNIVERSITY NEW RESEARCH CHALLENGES ANIMAL DIETARY CLASSIFICATIONS IN YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK
Scholars and schoolchildren alike have generally classified animals by the foods they eat: carnivores eat meat; browsers consume flowering plants, conifers and shrubs; and grazers focus on grasses.
But a new federally funded study led by Brown University biologists and scientists at Yellowstone National Park revealed that different circumstances lead herbivores to eat a much wider variety of plants than previously believed.
Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the new research suggests that the traditional classification schemes that distinguish herbivores by their percent of grass consumption are oversimplifications that can fail to reflect dietary variation within and across species, said study co-author Tyler Kartzinel, an associate professor of ecology, evolution and organismal biology at Brown.
"This challenges biologists to consider whether we're finding patterns in nature that reinforce our perceptions of what animals should be doing rather than what they are actually doing," Kartzinel said. "It makes a very compelling case that in Yellowstone, we're putting animals into boxes that include all members of a species but not considering the differences in eating behaviors within species or - perhaps more importantly - some of the similarities that unite different species."

By 2030, for the first time in U.S. history, adults age 65 and older will outnumber children - a seismic demographic shift already reshaping healthcare, policy and daily life. From senior housing to state government, there's growing demand for people who understand the unique needs of an aging population. For years, Cal State Long Beach has been shaping its gerontology program around this moment, with a focus on real-world experience, adaptable careers and meaningful relationships.
Maria Carpiac, director of the gerontology program, emphasized the growing need for specialized education - especially in a field where misconceptions about aging persist.
"While older adults have unique needs, they also may have unique strengths," she said. "And care providers who haven't been trained to challenge their own stereotypes about aging and older adults may underestimate or miss these strengths completely."
We spoke with four CSULB alumni, each carving a different path in aging services, about how The Beach gave them the tools and confidence to thrive in a rapidly expanding field.

CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY MEET A STUDENT RESEARCHER DEDICATED TO RECOGNIZING AND REMOVING BARRIERS TO DENTAL CARE ACCESS
Alex Matthews grew curious about public health before he knew the term. As a kid in rural Tennessee, the multi-hour trips required to see various healthcare providers made him wonder why there weren't any local options for his community, where many struggled to access services for financial, geographic and other reasons.
Later drawn to dentistry and its ability to develop long-term patient relationships, Matthews now studies dental public health as an DMD/MPH dual-degree student at the Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine.
Because oral health is inextricably linked with systemic health, both must be addressed to ensure patients stay healthy, he said.
Many barriers to dental care-such as lack of providers and inaccessible transportation-must be resolved at the systemic level, rather than the individual. Matthews' research explores these barriers to recognize and remove them, "so all individuals can receive equitable and accessible care," he said.

CLEMSON UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION INC.: FROM THE DESK OF THE CWO: PARENTING, PRESENCE AND THE POWER OF YOUR CIRCLE
In just a few short weeks, I'll launch my youngest child off to college. My husband and I will officially be empty nesters, and I find myself seeing this transition not through the lens of a higher education administrator - but as a parent.
I wonder if I've taught her everything she needs to know to thrive on her own. The things that race through my mind run the gamut of thoughts and feelings:
Did I balance letting go with providing structure? (Still up for debate.) Did I teach her proper table manners? (Not very well.) Does she know how to do laundry?

CLEMSON UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION INC.: JACK BERG 25, CO-FOUNDER OF SIMPLERX, WINS MBAE ENTERPRIZE AWARDS
Each year, students in the MBA in Entrepreneurship & Innovation compete in the Shark Tank style Enterprize Awards as part of their capstone course. Jack Berg M '25 took home the win this year and the $15,000 prize in startup funding for his innovative business idea simpleRx.
In second place and the $3,000 prize was Rylan Terry, Ph. D. with HT Crystals and Rylan Haley secured $2,000 in his third-place finish with Great Graves. The background of simpleRx Berg's winning pitch was simpleRx, an innovative way to help consumers purchase their prescription medications.
The idea for simpleRx is rooted in Berg's frustration for the unpredictable costs associated with prescription medicine for consumers. "In the current climate, when a prescription is written the patient needs to choose which pharmacy to send it to from the doctor's office," says Berg. "Consumers are heavily restricted in their autonomy to shop for which pharmacy has a better price, or even if the drug is in stock."
These issues are what drove Berg to find a solution to the problem. Leveraging the resources available through the Clemson MBAe program, he was able to transform this solution from an idea to a viable business opportunity. "Professor Matt Klein was a huge help in mentoring me throughout this journey," says Berg. "It started with his Entrepreneurial Strategy course where I was encouraged to conduct interviews with medical entrepreneurs for a class assignment, allowing me to build my network."

COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES: ECONOMIST TURNED ENERGY LEADER: COMING TO MINES WAS THE FIRST STEP
Tisi Barlock thumbnail of Spring 2025 Mines Magazine cover This story first appeared in the Spring 2025 issue of Mines Magazine. Tisi Barlock MS '17, PhD '19 may not have envisioned her career being largely based around energy supply chains and natural resource policy, but she has spent the last several years working as an expert on the topic and even served as a senior advisor for the United States Department of Energy's Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains.
However, Barlock's journey to get to this point started long before she was presenting data and strategies to White House staff. In fact, before she earned her master's and doctoral degrees in mineral and energy economics from Mines, she had earned a master's degree in economics at the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania and spent seven years as an economist in the country's Ministry of Treasury. She thought she'd begin a career in macroeconomics, but the treasury had another plan for her.
"When I started my first job, they told me they really needed people in fiscal policy," Barlock said. "The person in charge of fiscal policy told me, 'I want when people think about natural gas they think about your name.' I knew nothing about natural gas, but I did end up becoming an expert."
Barlock's job sent her around the world to resource-rich countries, where she learned how they were managing their natural resources policies. She even represented her country at the United Nations General Assembly. A couple years in, she led a cross-organizational team that created Tanzania's first Oil and Gas Revenue Management Policy and subsequent law, which passed in 2015. Source: Company Website

CORNELL UNIVERSITY: RECORD-SETTING CORNELLIAN TO SWIM CAYUGA LAKE AGAIN, THIS TIME FOR A CAUSE
When Claire de Boer '84 was growing up in Ithaca, one of her family's favorite activities was swimming. But it wasn't about heading down to Cass Park and hopping in the pool. No, this athletic clan had bigger ideas.
Like ducklings, she and her siblings would swim 2 to 3 miles across Cayuga Lake, following parents Tobias and Joan and family friends. De Boer balked at first, declaring the lake "gross" and preferring a pristine pool instead, but over time she grew to love the lake.
She also grew stronger, and swam not only its width, but eventually its 38-mile length. In August 1984, during her senior year at Cornell, de Boer stepped into the water at the lake's north end, and swam south until she reached Allen H. Treman State Marine Park in Ithaca. Her time of 20 hours, 30 minutes is still the record.

But antiferromagnetic materials, if only they could be harnessed, hold out even greater promise: ultra-fast information transfer and communications at much higher frequencies - a "holy grail" for physicists.

CORNELL UNIVERSITY: PARTNERSHIP HELPS CORNELL STUDENT TEAM BUILD A WINNING BRIDGE
Designing and building a bridge that can support 2,500 pounds - the weight of a small car or an adult giraffe - requires far more than just steel and bolts. It demands detailed planning, precise construction, and dedicated teamwork. For Cornell undergraduate engineering students, these skills are put to the test each year in the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC)'s Student Steel Bridge Competition.
The competition challenges student teams to engineer and construct a 23-foot-long steel span, and includes judged categories such as construction speed, lightness, stiffness, structural economy and efficiency. Teams must not only build a strong and lightweight bridge, but also do so quickly, under pressure, and at low cost. The resulting conveyance must resist bending when loaded.
Cornell's team rose to the occasion this spring, earning standout honors. The final structure was assembled in just 16 minutes, weighed only 216 pounds, and supported a 2,500-pound load with minimal bending. The bridge placed first in lightness and second in both stiffness and structural economy - making it one of the top-performing entries in the region.

CORNELL UNIVERSITY: AMAZON'S AI ASSISTANT STRUGGLES WITH DIVERSE DIALECTS, STUDY FINDS
A new Cornell study revealed that Amazon's AI shopping assistant, Rufus, gives vague or incorrect responses to users writing in some English dialects, such as African American English (AAE), especially when prompts contain typos.
The paper introduces a framework to evaluate chatbots for harms that occur when AI systems perform worse for users who speak or write in different dialects. The study has implications for the increasing number of online platforms that are incorporating chatbots based on large language models to provide services to users, the researchers said.
"Currently, chatbots may provide lower-quality responses to users who write in dialects. However, this doesn't have to be the case," said lead author Emma Harvey, a Ph.D. student at Cornell Tech. "If we train large language models to be robust to common dialectical features that exist outside of so-called Standard American English, we could see more equitable behavior."

The quantum computing revolution draws ever nearer, but the need for a computer that makes correctable errors continues to hold it back.
Through a collaboration with IBM led by Cornell, researchers have brought that revolution one step closer, achieving two major breakthroughs. First, they demonstrated an error-resistant implementation of universal quantum gates, the essential building blocks of quantum computation. Second, they showcased the power of a topological quantum computer in solving hard problems that a conventional computer couldn't manage.
In "Realizing String-Net Condensation: Fibonacci Anyon Braiding for Universal Gates and Sampling Chromatic Polynomials" published in Nature Communications July 6, an international collaboration between researchers at IBM, Cornell, Harvard University and the Weizman Institute of Science demonstrated, for the first time, the ability to encode information by braiding - moving in a particular order - Fibonacci string net condensate (Fib SNC) anyons, which are exotic quasi-particles, in two dimensional space.

CORNELL UNIVERSITY: FOR MICROBES IN HARSH ENVIRONMENTS, ITS SURVIVAL OF THE MEEKEST
On the battlefield that is the microbial world, where microorganisms often try to wipe out the competition by producing various toxins, sometimes it helps to be a pacifist.
Cornell researchers with the Center for Applied Mathematics have found that peaceful microbes are more likely to thrive, and their more aggressive peers perish, if their environment is harsh or experiences violent disruptions.
The findings were published June 26 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The paper's lead author is MingYi Wang, M.S. '21, Ph.D. '24.
"The big overarching question was: When is it advantageous to be antagonistic, and when is it detrimental?" said Andrea Giometto, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering in Cornell Engineering and a co-senior author of the paper. "Microbes often pay a metabolic cost to display antagonistic behavior, so they have to invest some energy into that. Especially when there are opportunities for growth and still very few microbes around, it might actually be better to redirect that energy towards dividing faster."

Negotiations toward a global, legally binding plastics treaty are set to resume this summer, with the United Nations Environment Programme announcing that the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on plastic pollution will reconvene in August.
The committee was established to develop an international legally binding instrument - known as the plastics treaty - to end plastic pollution, one of the fastest-growing environmental threats.
Globally, 40 per cent of plastics production goes into the production of single-use plastic packaging, which is the single largest source of plastic waste and is a threat to wildlife and human health. Without meaningful action, global plastic waste is projected to nearly triple by 2060, reaching an estimated 1.2 billion tonnes.
As the world prepares for another round of talks, Canada's own plastic problem reveals what's at stake, and what's possible for the future. Canada's plastic problem
Canada is no exception to the global plastic crisis. Nearly half (47 per cent) of all plastic waste in Canada comes from the food and drink sector, contributing 3,268 million tonnes annually. Canadians use 15 billion plastic bags annually and nearly 57 million straws daily, yet only nine per cent of plastics are recycled - a figure that is not expected to improve.

DUKE UNIVERSITY: DUKEALERT EMERGENCY TEST SCHEDULED FOR JULY 16
As part of its regular testing of the DukeALERT notification system, Duke is encouraging all students, faculty, and staff to review the guidelines for how to respond in the event of an active emergency.
"The summer and fall often bring severe weather such as hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornados, so it's important for our community to know how to stay safe during those times," said Chloe Hallberg, Executive Director for Business Continuity and Emergency Management at Duke. "But we also have to prepare for rare, but high impact events such as potential violence on campus. It's always better to know what to do in advance."
The test will take place at 10 a.m. Wednesday, July 16. The email and text message sent during the test will include a link to information about how to respond to different types of emergencies, including guidelines and a video with recommendations for how to respond in the event of an armed assailant on campus. The video also addresses how to recognize and report signs of suspicious or concerning behavior to help prevent violence.
The outdoor siren used during emergencies will be included as part of the test. Its siren tone is considered an "all hazards" alert to get the community's attention and will be activated for any type of emergency that requires people to take shelter immediately.

DUKE UNIVERSITY: STUDY SUGGESTS LEMURS AGE DIFFERENTLY THAN HUMANS
What can lemurs tell us about inflammation and aging, aka "inflammaging" in humans? That's the question Elaine Guevara, a biological anthropologist who studies the evolution of life history and aging in primates, set out to understand.
In newly published research on age-related inflammation in ring-tailed and sifaka lemurs, Guevara discovered that perhaps we should rethink the inevitability of inflammaging in humans.
Although similar in many ways, ring-tailed and sifaka lemurs show differences in life pacing and lifespan, making useful comparisons. Because lemurs and humans are primates and share a common ancestor that lived millions of years ago, they offer valuable insights into human evolution.
Her findings, she said, were "surprising."
"Contrary to our predictions, neither species showed age-related change in either marker of oxidative stress. Neither lemur species exhibited age-related change in inflammation; if anything, contrary to our prediction, ring-tailed lemurs showed marginal declines in inflammation with age," Guevara said.

ETH ZURICH OVER 400 DIFFERENT TYPES OF NERVE CELL HAVE BEEN GROWN - FAR MORE THAN EVER BEFORE
Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand different types of nerve cell in the human brain according to the latest calculations. These cell types vary in their function, in the number and length of their cellular appendages, and in their interconnections. They emit different neurotransmitters into our synapses and, depending on the region of the brain - for example, the cerebral cortex or the midbrain - different cell types are active.
When scientists produced nerve cells from stem cells in Petri dishes for their experiments in the past, it was not possible to take their vast diversity into account. Until now, researchers had only developed procedures for growing a few dozen different types of nerve cell in vitro. They achieved this using genetic engineering or by adding signalling molecules to activate particular cellular signalling pathways. However, they never got close to achieving the diversity of hundreds or thousands of different nerve cell types that actually exists.

Malaria, gonorrhea, and chlamydia are infectious diseases that pose major global health challenges, especially in low-income countries. For example, an estimated 600,000 people die from malaria every year, more than 95% of them in sub-Saharan Africa. The brand-new startup Spotlight Diagnostics (Spotlight Dx), founded by researchers from the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and medical microbiologists from the Global Health Initiative, is developing a fast and accurate test for detecting infectious diseases that can be used on-site in countries with limited resources. "Our test does not require a lab to measure accurately; a simple reading device is sufficient," says co-founder Claire Michielsen.
Source: IOplus / Elcke Vels
In low-income countries, access to healthcare is often limited. Lack of resources and weak infrastructure make medical care difficult. There is still much room for improvement in the field of diagnostics.
"Care providers often treat patients without knowing exactly what is wrong," says Claire Michielsen. Patients are sometimes given antibiotics when there are no bacteria present. This is not only risky for the patient but also exacerbates the problem of antibiotic resistance.
"To measure is to know - and for that, you need reliable tests," says Michielsen. Spotlight Dx, founded in March this year, is working on a rapid detection of pathogens, with an affordable and user-friendly test.

What appealed to you in Health Policy & Management?
I've always been interested in health care, but I also knew I didn't want to become a doctor. For a very long time, I wanted to study biomedical sciences because I'm very interested in how the human body works. I was already accepted at Utrecht University, but decided to go for something else entirely. I'm someone who gets a lot of energy from connecting with people and I was missing that.

ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM: THE NETHERLANDS IN TRANSITION: OUR SPATIAL-ECONOMIC FUTURE
At Platform31's Trendtalk on 3 July, one message rang out loud and clear: The Netherlands is stuck spatially-economically. This was something Frank van Oort, Professor of Urban and Regional Economics at Erasmus School of Economics, could also comment on.
According to the panel, we are currently facing structural stagnation and a lack of a shared vision on our country's spatial-economic future. There is too little space to accommodate the wide range of economic activities and the realisation is growing that not everything will be possible in the future. This is precisely why making choices will be essential.
Van Oort emphasised that it is important not to pursue the same strategy in every region, as that leads to competition. Instead, coordinating with each other is a better option. He continued that diferent reagions will require different approaches. Some will need to transform, others to intensify and others to revitalise. According to van Oort, the government should take a guiding role in this, as companies are primarily focused on their own markets.
The Achilles' heel in the Netherlands for the future is likely to remain the labour market, according to van Oort. To actually shape the transitions, we will have to train people ourselves. However, that is currently challenging as we no longer possess those skills.

ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM: THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF FREEZING FUNDING ON HIV DEATHS IN AFRICA
On January 24, 2025, the United States government issued an executive order to freeze all foreign aid programmes, including The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), for 90 days. An international team of researchers, led by Dr. Jan Hontelez and Professor Sake de Vlas from the Department of Public Health at Erasmus MC, demonstrated that this decision could result in 150 thousand additional deaths and 200 thousand new HIV infections in sub-Saharan Africa.
Over the past decades, PEPFAR has been instrumental in scaling up life-saving HIV treatment, and many countries in sub-Saharan Africa still heavily depend on US funding to sustain service delivery for millions. The freeze resulted in an immediate termination of all activities and dismantling of programs. Although a limited waiver option became available shortly after the initial freeze decision, its implementation remained incomplete.

FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY: CYBERSECURITY MBA STUDENTS TALK TECH, BUSINESS AND POLICY IN D.C.
With cybersecurity threats escalating globally and the rapid rise of AI reshaping policy debates, 24 students from the MBA in Cybersecurity Risk Management program at FIU Business traveled to Washington, D.C., last month for a high-impact residency focused on the intersection of technology, business and policy.
The immersive experience, built into the program's cybersecurity resiliency course, offered students direct engagement with lawmakers, federal staffers and industry experts at events at the U.S. Capitol, the Institute of World Politics and an exclusive Axios panel sponsored by Visa.
The trip was developed by Jesus Arias, FIU Business assistant teaching professor of information systems and business analytics, who worked closely with FIU's Jack D. Gordon Institute for Public Policy and the university's D.C. office to bring the vision to life.
"We're preparing our students not just for today's cybersecurity landscape, but for the threats and decisions shaping tomorrow," said Arias. "They're already positioned to be strong managers in the field. But here, they're seeing where national policy is made and realizing that they can be part of that conversation."
Throughout the visit, students met with congressional leaders and staffers, including California Rep. Eric Swalwell as well as legislative counsel from the office of Florida Rep. Carlos Gimenez, and participated in panel discussions centered on AI regulation, cyber warfare and the national cybersecurity workforce gap. With more than 500,000 cybersecurity jobs currently unfilled in the U.S., Arias emphasized the importance of preparing graduates to step into both corporate and government-facing roles.
"The government is trying to work hand-in-hand with emerging tech like AI and quantum computing," said Jasmine Restrepo-Gaitan, an MBA student and IT professional. "What surprised me most was realizing how much of cybersecurity depends not just on technology, but on human factors like psychology, operations, even diplomacy."
Restrepo-Gaitan, who aims to become a chief information security officer, described the experience as insightful. She said hearing directly from government experts including former senators and current federal cybersecurity advisors solidified her goals and expanded her understanding of cybersecurity's national and global stakes.

FRIEDRICH SCHILLER UNIVERSITY JENA: THE RIGHT MIX AND PLANTING PATTERN OF TREES ENHANCE FOREST PRODUCTIVITY AND SERVICES
A new paper published in Nature Communications reveals how the way tree species are arranged in a forest can help optimise ecosystem functioning and productivity. The study was conducted using empirical field data combined with advanced computer models and simulations by researchers at the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv), Leipzig University, Friedrich Schiller University Jena, and the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS).
The researchers simulated virtual forests with multiple arrangements of tree species, such as block and mini-block designs, plantings in single and double lines, and fully random distributions. These simulations incorporated real data from the BEF-China (Biodiversity-Ecosystem Functioning) experiment, including tree growth models (based on field inventories), litterfall collections, and decomposition rate measurements. This data allowed the researchers to model the effect of spatial arrangement on ecosystem functions, such as tree productivity, nitrogen, and carbon cycling.
If a leaf falls in a randomly arranged forest, there are benefits The researchers found that the way tree species are arranged in a forest-whether clustered or randomly spread out-impacts productivity. This so-called species spatial heterogeneity, which refers to the patterns of species distribution within a forest, such as block or line planting, affects how nutrients cycle through the ecosystem.
"For decades, biodiversity research has emphasised the benefits of mixing species for productivity and carbon storage. However, this approach is rarely implemented, largely due to the absence of practical guidelines that account for real-world forestry constraints", explains first author Remy Beugnon and postdoc at iDiv.

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY: A SENIOR FINDS HIS NICHE IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS
This story is part of our summer storytelling series, which follows Hoyas' adventures near and far.
Peter Sukstorf's (SFS'26) interest in the environment started at the zoo.
Starting in eighth grade, he took classes in environmental conservation at Omaha, Nebraska's zoo, and found his world got a little wider.
"The zoo was a window into different kinds of wild animals, things I hadn't experienced before and the academic study of nature," he said.
Ever since, Sukstorf has dove head-first into studying nature. He's leafed through a rainforest in Madagascar to search for chameleons and helped rescue fur seals tangled up in debris on a remote Alaskan island.

GRENOBLE ALPES UNIVERSITY: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR OPTICAL MEASUREMENTS AT THE ULTIMATE LIMIT OF PRECISION
When light is scattered, how accurately can a measurement result be derived from that light? An international research team has explored the limits of what is possible using artificial intelligence. No image is infinitely sharp. No matter how well a microscope or camera is designed, there are always fundamental limits to precision that cannot be exceeded. For example, the position of a particle can never be measured with infinite precision; a certain degree of uncertainty is inevitable. This limit is not the result of technical weaknesses, but of the intrinsic physical properties of light and the transmission of information itself.

Proteins degrade over time, making their history hard to study. But new research has uncovered ancient proteins in the enamel of the teeth of 18-million-year-old fossilized mammals from Kenya's Rift Valley, opening a window into how these animals lived and evolved.
In their new paper in Nature, researchers from Harvard and the Smithsonian Museum Conservation Institute discuss their findings.
"Teeth are rocks in our mouths," explained Daniel Green, field program director in the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology and the paper's lead author. "They're the hardest structures that any animals make, so you can find a tooth that is a hundred or a hundred million years old, and it will contain a geochemical record of the life of the animal."

In the vibrant halls of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), Dr. Meike SAUERWEIN, Lecturer of the Division of Environment and Sustainability, is igniting a quiet revolution. Her course, ENVR 1080: The Smart Consumer - Uncovering the Hidden Story Behind the Product Label, is far more than a typical sustainability course-it is an eye-opening experience that makes students rethink their everyday purchases and their ripple effects on the environment and society.
A Vision for a Better Future Dr. Sauerwein's approach to teaching goes well beyond the ordinary. With her background in environmental chemistry and ecotoxicology, she brings a deep passion for sustainability to the classroom. Her mission is simple and clear: "I want students to understand that their happiness shouldn't come at the expense of someone else's misery," she says. By uncovering the hidden stories of environmental harm and human exploitation behind glossy marketing and labels, she is teaching students to see the world-and their role in it-differently.
Her vision goes beyond merely teaching facts. "Sustainability isn't about saving the planet-it's about recognizing how our choices affect others around the world," she explains. "Just saving paper in the toilet isn't going to save the world. It's a start, but meaningful changes come from understanding the full impact of our consumption and focusing on those actions that have the highest environmental and social footprint." Dr. Sauerwein's humor underscores a deeper truth that change begins with awareness, and awareness begins with education.
"Every purchase is a choice, every choice has a consequence, and every individual has the power to make a difference," she says.

HUMBOLDT UNIVERSITY OF BERLIN: MILESTONE IN UNDERSTANDING BACTERIAL MOTILITY
An international research team led by scientists at Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin (HU) has resolved the complete structure of the bacterial flagellum. These findings provide key insights into the molecular architecture of one of the most complex motility machines in nature. "Our study solves a central mystery in microbiology that has intrigued researchers since the 1950s: how does the cell manage to assemble this sophisticated molecular machine so precisely and efficiently outside of its body?" says Prof. Marc Erhardt, head of the Molecular Microbiology group at Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin and senior author of the study. The flagellum was imaged in its native state, its active, properly folded molecular form. The team also succeeded in elucidating previously unknown key moments in the biological self-assembly process by which the flagellum is built step by step on the bacterial surface. The findings were published in the journal Nature Microbiology. The study involved scientists from the Randall Centre for Cell and Molecular Biophysics at King's College London, Forschungszentrum Julich, Imperial College London, and the Max Planck Unit for the Science of Pathogens in Berlin.

Physicists at ITMO University have become the first to explain the nature of the skewed wake effect in particle accelerators. Their analytical theory shows how a tilt of a flat particle beam causes a reverse rotation of its electromagnetic field. The effect leads to unstable behavior of particles in next-gen compact accelerators and large colliders. The discovery could help predict the behavior of asymmetrical beams and make associated experiments safer and more efficient. The study was published in.
Credit: Yur4you / photogenica.ru
In the 1980s, physicists devised plasma acceleration - a method of speeding up electrons that is still used today. Like a ship treading through water, the first beam of particles passes through a special tube, leaving behind a strong electromagnetic field, or a wake; it is followed by another beam that "rides" the wave and accelerates. This method opens the door for more compact (tens of meters in length), affordable, and efficient particle accelerators and high-power lasers.

KU LEUVEN WELL-KNOWN ANTIFUNGAL AGENT SHOWS POTENTIAL IN TREATMENT OF DRUG-RESISTANT EPILEPSY
25 million people with epilepsy do not benefit from existing treatments. Clioquinol, an existing antibacterial and antifungal agent, may provide a solution. Initial results from this interdisciplinary KU Leuven-UZ Leuven study appear promising.
Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder affecting 80 million people worldwide. There are more than twenty different treatments available, but for thirty percent of the cases - 25 million people - these are not effective. An interdisciplinary research team at KU Leuven and UZ Leuven has now identified a potential solution for this kind of drug-resistant epilepsy.
The researchers discovered that the PHGDH enzyme may play a key role. This enzyme helps produce the neurotransmitters glycine and serine, both amino acids, and reduces inflammatory responses. 'We therefore searched for existing drugs that activate the PHGDH enzyme,' says innovation manager Karin Thevissen (Centre for Microbial and Plant Genetics). 'This search led us to clioquinol, which has been used for many years as an antibacterial and antifungal agent.'

In a systematic review and meta-analysis of previous randomised controlled trials relating to antidepressant withdrawal, a team of researchers led by Imperial College London and King's College London concluded that, while participants who stopped antidepressants did experience an average of one more symptom than those who continued or were taking placebos, this was not enough to be judged as significant.
The most common symptoms were dizziness, nausea, vertigo and nervousness. Importantly, depression was not a symptom of withdrawal from antidepressants, and was more likely to reflect illness recurrence.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON HOW M&S RESPONDS TO ITS CYBER-ATTACK COULD HAVE A SERIOUS IMPACT ON ITS FUTURE - AND ITS CUSTOMERS
The cyber-attack on Marks & Spencer will lead to an estimated Pound300 million hit to the company's profits this year. It now aims to have online shopping at the store back to normal by August, more than three months after IT systems were compromised.
Fans of M&S clothing and food will be relieved after all of the uncertainty. But that level of uncertainty, as well as the huge cost, is surely a sign that big retailers, which millions of people rely on, need to change how they think about - and invest in - cybersecurity.
It has to be an absolute priority. After all, few marketing strategies or HR initiatives can save a company Pound300 million in just six weeks. But perhaps a more sophisticated cybersecurity department could have done just that.
To be fair, M&S faced a relatively rare, high-impact ordeal. Most cyber-attacks of this nature don't affect customers so directly, and much of the recovery typically happens behind the scenes.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON RESEARCHERS UNLOCK HIDDEN GEOMETRY OF THE HEART TO REVOLUTIONISE ECG INTERPRETATION
With data from over 39,000 participants from UK Biobank, this is one of the largest population-based studies to date exploring the relationship between heart anatomy and electrical activity. By combining 3D heart imaging with ECG data, the team created simplified digital twins of each participant's heart. These personalised models allowed researchers to explore how the heart's anatomical position, known as the anatomical axis, aligns with a spatial metric of electrical activity, or electrical axis.
Digital twins are emerging as a powerful tool in cardiovascular research, enabling scientists to simulate and study the heart's structure and function in unprecedented detail. In this study, they were key to revealing how natural variations in heart orientation, shaped by factors such as body mass index (BMI), sex, and hypertension, can significantly influence ECG readings.

The study is published today in BMJ Medicine and led by researchers in the Faculty of Life Sciences & Medicine, Oxford University and the charity Birth Companions, and funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research. It is the first to detail the situations of the 1695 women who died within a year of pregnancy; of whom 420 were in contact with children's social care. Researchers analysed national surveillance data from 2014 to 2022 to understand how the women died and the quality of the care they received.
The number of newborn babies in care proceedings in England is a growing problem. 2914 were in care in 2019/20; up 20% in seven years. Children under one make-up over a quarter of all children in care proceedings.
Women who died The study finds three quarters of the mothers known to social services died between six weeks and the year after pregnancy and most deaths were due to suicide (20%), other psychiatric causes including drug related deaths (30%), and homicide (5%). Women with social care involvement more frequently died from homicide and mental health related causes than women without involvement.

There will be new 'Neighbourhood Health Plans', which will support the shift from hospitals to community-based care; a model already established in places as varied as Brazil, Canada and Costa Rica, all of which offer valuable lessons on how to successfully deliver integrated, people-centred primary health care.

The novel is inspired by a memory of a shed on wheels - a shrimper's rig - abandoned on the beach at Southport, where Wood grew up. Seascraper resulted from Wood's further explorations of this memory and is set in a smaller-scale version of his hometown.

The pumps being used are new, cutting edge technology which are air to water source heat pumps. The pumps use electricity instead of gas to produce heat which will help us to reduce our emissions.
Over the last decade, the National Grid has already decarbonised by approximately 50% as more renewable energy has been added to the energy mix. As the grid continues to decarbonise towards zero carbon, the electricity we use will have a lower carbon impact. Therefore, installing heating systems which use electricity instead of gas will help us to decarbonise.

The oral foundation gives the language unique qualities, including subtle nuances, natural rhythms and melodic tones shaped by vowel sounds, aspects that are not easily captured in written form.
With the impacts of colonisation, legislative suppression, urban migration and the decline of fluent speakers, the written word became vital for the language's survival. Maori newspapers from the 19th and early 20th centuries now stand as important records of reo Maori as it was spoken, often capturing authentic structures used by first-language speakers.

SWIMMING IN THE DEEP: MSU RESEARCH REVEALS SEA LAMPREY TRAVEL PATTERNS IN GREAT LAKES WATERWAYS
Invasive sea lampreys prey on most species of large Great Lakes fish such as lake trout, brown trout, lake sturgeon, lake whitefish, ciscoes, burbot, walleye and catfish. These species are crucial to Great Lakes ecosystems and to the region's fishing industry. Understanding how sea lampreys migrate can inform management and conservation strategies, such as developing methods to catch the invasive fish that don't involve dams, which reduce river connectivity, or lampricide, a pesticide that some communities and groups prefer not to use. The Great Lakes fishing industry is worth $7 billion and provides 75,000 jobs to the region. Reducing the amount of sea lamprey in waters is crucial for the industry's well-being and the economic vitality of the Great Lakes.
How do you catch an invasive fish that's solitary, nocturnal and doesn't feed on bait? A close-up image of the mouth of a lamprey, showing its circular, disc-shaped structure lined with sharp, conical teeth. The teeth are arranged in a spiral pattern around a central opening, which reveals the lamprey's tongue and internal structures. The surrounding area is pinkish-orange, and the lamprey's body can be seen partially in the background. Invasive sea lampreys attack many large Great Lakes fish, like lake trout, sturgeon, and walleye, which are important to the ecosystem and fishing industry.
Researchers in the Michigan State University College of Agriculture and Natural Resources are one step closer to figuring it out.
In a study published in the Journal of Experimental Biology and funded by the Great Lakes Fishery Commission, Kandace Griffin, a fisheries and wildlife doctoral student, and Michael Wagner, professor in the MSU Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, found that sea lampreys - a parasitic fish considered an invasive species in the Great Lakes region of the U.S. - follow a clear pattern of staying in the deepest parts of a river.
These findings are important for informing sea lamprey management strategies, conservation of fish species native to the Great Lakes and protecting the region's $7 billion fishing industry and the 75,000 jobs it provides.
"We wanted to know how sea lampreys are making their movement decisions when migrating," Griffin said. "Are they guided by certain environmental cues? Are they moving through areas that are safer? How can we potentially exploit those decisions or maybe manipulate them into going somewhere that they don't want to go, like pushing them into a trap."

Jasnoor Kaur is a third-year student studying social relations and policy at James Madison College and neuroscience at Lyman Briggs College. She is driven by a passion for equity, innovation and transforming global health systems.
One of the most powerful qualities to possess in one's character is the ability to practice true empathy. Not some form of surface-level compassion, but radical, immersive empathy - the kind that doesn't just acknowledge someone's pain or joy but fully inhabits it. To feel what they feel, to see the world through their eyes and to let that perspective transform the way you think, speak, build and lead without judgment.
I believe that once you master this kind of empathy, you don't just become a better person. You become someone capable of creating real, systemic, human-centered change. You become someone who leads not with ego, but with purpose.
This summer, I had the extraordinary opportunity to live and work in two of the most intellectually rich cities globally: Paris and Oxford. In Paris, I joined a team working on cardio-oncological biomarker analysis, using R to extract insights from complex patient data. Although rigorous and technical, my work was deeply human. To me, each data point represented a life, a story - a beating heart navigating the dual burdens of cancer and heart disease. I wasn't just analyzing patterns - I was helping surface information that could one day improve how scientists approach chemo and cardiovascular disease treatment. In a way, with every action I took, I felt as if patients were living through me and I had a duty not to disappoint.

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: FIRST SCIENTIFIC PAPER ON 3I/ATLAS INTERSTELLAR OBJECT
When the news started to spread on July 1, 2025, about a new object that was spotted from outside our solar system, only the third of its kind ever known, astronomers at Michigan State University - along with a team of international researchers - turned their telescopes to capture data on the new celestial sighting.
The team rushed to write a scientific paper on what they know so far about the object, now called 3I/ATLAS, after NASA's Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System, or ATLAS. ATLAS consists of four telescopes - two in Hawaii, one in Chile and one in South Africa - which automatically scans the whole sky several times every night looking for moving objects.
MSU's Darryl Seligman, a member of the scientific team and an assistant professor in the College of Natural Science, took the lead on writing the paper.
"I heard something about the object before I went to bed, but we didn't have a lot of information yet," Seligman said. "By the time I woke up around 1 a.m., my colleagues, Marco Micheli from the European Southern Observatory and Davide Farnocchia from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, were emailing me that this was likely for real. I started sending messages telling everyone to turn their telescopes to look at this object and started writing the paper to document what we know to date. We have data coming in from across the globe about this object."

MSU RESEARCHERS: YOUNG ATHLETES SHOULD TAKE A CROSS-TRAINING VACATION FOR BETTER PERFORMANCE, HEALTH
MSU researchers say that young athletes who specialize in just one sport experience more injuries and injury-related surgeries. Switching sports for one season a year, or roughly three months, can keep young athletes safer and provide a better outlook for their long-term health. This information is important for parents, coaches, young athletes and their health practitioners as they make decisions about upcoming sports seasons.
Some professional football players practice ballet. An NCAA champion runner also swims. An Olympic gold medal speed skater does six-hour biking sessions. According to researchers from Michigan State University, these athletes are ahead of the game because cross-training can help prevent injury in youth athletes. Nathan Fitton, DO Nathan Fitton, DO
Nathan Fitton, associate professor of orthopedics in the MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine, chief medical information officer for MSU Health Care, and MSU Athletics team physician; Jared Lutsic, MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine alumni and orthopedic surgery resident at Henry Ford Warren; and others studied the effects of sport specialization on collegiate athletes. Their findings were recently published in the Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine and reveal a direct association between the intensity of sport specialization and incidence of injuries while as a college athlete.
"We expected to learn that highly specialized athletes would have higher injury rates," Fitton said. "What's alarming is a statistically significant increase in surgical procedures after an injury. We found that the more specialized an athlete was, the more likely they were to need surgery to correct an injury. This was true for male and female athletes."
"There are lifelong implications for youth sports injuries," he added. "Injured athletes don't always return to their pre-injury state. In the short term, this may mean they don't get back to the sport at a level where they want to be. Longer term, we see arthritis from trauma to joints at an earlier age than would be expected. And we see 30- and 35-year-olds who need additional surgeries or lifestyle modifications to recover from an injury they experienced as a youth athlete."

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: STUDENT VIEW: CLIMBING KILIMANJARO THE SPARTAN WAY
Two people hold a Spartans Will flag at the Uhuru Peak sign on Mount Kilimanjaro at sunrise. Lily Connor, of Northville, Michigan, is a sophomore majoring in environmental engineering at Michigan State University.
One of the main reasons I chose MSU was because of its outstanding study abroad opportunities. I attended the Global Spartan Study Abroad Fair with one mission: to find the most unforgettable experience available. I was looking for something epic - something unique.
That's when I met Eric, who introduced me to a program titled Technology Solutions in Africa. The name alone lit a spark in me. I could already feel the pull of an adventure halfway across the world.
The journey began with a week of immersive Kiswahili language learning, which helped us better communicate and connect with the local communities. From there, we traveled to Mto Wa Mbu to work with five local schools. We installed and expanded internet networks, taught coding and Excel to students, and worked on solar panel systems. Each day brought something new - we were both teachers and learners. On weekends, we visited three breathtaking safaris and went on a cultural tour that deepened my understanding of Tanzania's history and traditions.

IEISHA HUMPHREY JOINS MSU LAW AS NEW ASSISTANT DEAN FOCUSED ON BAR SUCCESS
Ask any law school leader in the United States if preparing their graduating students for first-time bar passage is a top priority, the answer is likely to be a resounding "yes!"
Ieisha Humphrey's answer is yes - with a twist.
As Michigan State University College of Law's new assistant dean for professionalism, leadership and bar success - a role supported by generous third-party funding - she wants bar prep programs and legal institutions to design supportive and effective courses for test-takers facing current challenges or dealing with past issues.
At MSU Law, she is developing a bar program that does just that.
"Life doesn't pause during bar prep for these students," Humphrey said. "Financial challenges, health struggles, discrimination, loss - it all has an impact on how well you do. That's why we offer holistic, student-centered support that addresses the full spectrum of barriers students may face.

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: ASK THE EXPERT: WHAT'S AT RISK FOR ARCTIC WILDLIFE IF OIL DRILLING EXPANDS IN THE NATIONAL PETROLEUM RESERVE IN ALASKA
The National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska spans nearly 23 million acres of treeless plains, meandering rivers and lush wetlands while providing a home to caribou, millions of migratory birds, polar bears and Indigenous communities whose lives are intertwined with its resources. However, a new plan from the Trump administration threatens to open nearly 82% of this delicate ecosystem for oil and gas development. This alarming proposal has sparked deep concern among scientists, conservationists and tribal leaders who fear that irreversible damage could be just around the corner.

MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: BRINGING NEW LIFE TO THE RED CEDAR RIVER
Running through the heart of Michigan State University's campus, the Red Cedar River has long served as a beacon of recreation, teaching and learning, and a thriving ecosystem for the campus community. If you ask a current Spartan or alum what the river means to them, it's likely no two responses will be the same. The common thread is that the river provides something for everyone. And in order for everyone to benefit from this natural campus resource, it truly takes a village.
River revitalization
For the past 18 months, MSU's Manager of Landscape Services Matt Bailey has been dedicated to keeping the river clean, enhancing its ecosystem and expanding its overall functionality. Each year, MSU Infrastructure Planning and Facilities hosts two river cleanup days that bring together volunteers from MSU and the surrounding community - including student groups - who spend the days working hands-on in and around the river to help restore and revitalize this important campus asset. Those efforts include removing debris including garbage, scooters, car batteries, bikes, other pollutants as well as invasive species of plants.

Because such chilled gas should evaporate quickly in million-degree surroundings, its survival hints that the bubbles are only about a million years old.

MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH IN MASER RESEARCH FOR NORTHUMBRIA SCIENTISTS
Scientists at Northumbria University have made a breakthrough in developing a new type of 'microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation' device, known as a maser.
With the ability to detect and amplify extremely weak electromagnetic signals without adding additional noise, masers have many potential uses, including the production of more sensitive magnetic resonance body scanners, such as those used in airports.
Despite being first discovered in the 1950s, there has been little development of the technology since then due to the complex and expensive conditions required to make them - with masers only able to be produced in very cold conditions, while also within a vacuum, and a high magnetic field.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY: POPULAR TEEN MOVIES REEL BACK FROM VISIBLE SIGNS OF PUBERTY
Most popular coming-of-age movies don't reflect the true challenges of adolescence, suggests new research.
An analysis led by Kate Stewart, a PhD student in communication at The Ohio State University, found that films that feature teen protagonists tend to depict experiences incongruent to those that real-life adolescents face. Unlike a typical high school student, protagonists in movies, for example, are rarely shown to struggle with the physical aspects of puberty, and typically excel at initiating romantic relationships.
These findings contribute to the idea that while on-screen representations of youth are vital touchstones, they emphasize largely unfamiliar and unattainable narratives, so that when young viewers compare their lives to what they see in media, they find they don't measure up.
Kate Stewart Kate Stewart Repeated exposure in the movies to idealized portrayals of romantic interaction and body image impacts how teens interact with the world around them, said Stewart.
"In a perfect world we would see comforting, reassuring, informative depictions of these types of things," she said. "But if you're seeing certain depictions over and over again, then it's going to start to affect how you view things and especially what you may come to expect."

Oklahoma State University-Oklahoma City's Fire Science Program is celebrating a major milestone as it prepares to welcome 100 students into its introductory course for the Fall 2025 semester. This achievement reflects years of dedicated effort and strategic growth.
When Joe Bennett took over as program coordinator seven years ago, the program faced significant challenges. Enrollment in the entry-level course had dwindled to just 12 students, and the program lacked dedicated classroom space, training facilities and essential equipment. At the time, its future was uncertain.
"Back then, we were on the verge of being cut due to low enrollment," Bennett said. "Today, we're not only surviving - we're thriving."
The program's resurgence is the result of a collaborative effort involving committed instructional staff, strong administrative support, and targeted outreach and marketing. While infrastructure and equipment needs remain, Bennett emphasized the substantial progress made in those areas.
"This growth would not have been possible without the exceptional people behind the scenes," he said. "I'm incredibly proud of how far we've come - and even more excited about where we're headed."

PEPPERDINE UNIVERSITY: PEPPERDINE GRAZIADIO BUSINESS SCHOOL PROFESSOR CRISTINA GIBSON CONTRIBUTES TO $43M GLOBAL STUDY ON HUMAN FLOURISHING WITH LANDMARK FINDINGS
"Money can't buy happiness" is often said-and partially believed-but now, due to a Pepperdine professor's global research initiative, there is comprehensive data that affirms the validity of this popular statement.
Cristina Gibson, University Professor and Dean's Distinguished Professor of Management at Pepperdine Graziadio Business School, is a key scientist contributing to the $43M Global Flourishing Study, the largest international research effort ever conducted on human flourishing. This groundbreaking project seeks to holistically answer one of life's most integral questions: what contributes to a life well-lived?
Transcending data shaped solely by Western populations and priorities, the Global Flourishing Study is tracking the well-being of 240,000 individuals across 22 countries, accruing data over a five-year period. A co-author of six publications for the project, Gibson serves as one of the study's co-investigators, primarily engaged with the cultural and psychological drivers of financial well-being, perceived hope, relationship quality, and volunteering behavior, providing insights into how different societies define and pursue flourishing.
"It has been a true honor to work on a project of this scope and reach," says Gibson. "What has been most fascinating to me is that what we consider to be 'flourishing' differs so much around the world. Simple economic indicators (e.g., GDP) do not reflect the totality of what it means to flourish. Countries that rank highest in some respects rank much lower in other aspects. There is no one 'best place' to experience flourishing. Such cultural differences need to be considered when developing policy or practices to increase flourishing in any region around the globe. This respect for differences is well aligned with our values at Pepperdine."

Royal Holloway has earned an acclaimed award in race equality in the higher education sector. It is one of only five universities currently holding this distinction in the UK. Advance HE Membership Logo Standalone REC Silver Colour (1)
Royal Holloway has been honoured with a Silver Award under Advance HE's Race Equality Charter.
Royal Holloway has been honoured with a Silver Award under Advance HE's Race Equality Charter (REC), an accreditation scheme designed to help higher education institutions identify and address systemic racial inequalities.
This work is an essential part of Royal Holloway's vision as a University of Social Purpose, and deeply embedded throughout our strategy, RH2030s.
The Charter provides universities with a framework to critically examine institutional and cultural barriers that may hinder the representation, progression, and success of Black and global majority colleagues and students.
The Award panel commended Royal Holloway's progress, stating: 'The application presents clear evidence that race equality work at the University is underway and is having positive impacts, and there is a clear plan in place to continue and build on this work.'
Professor Tracy Bhamra, Provost and Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Global) and Senior Leadership Team Race Equality Champion expressed her gratitude to everyone who contributed to the application process.
"This recognition is a testament to our commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable environment for all. I want to sincerely thank everyone who contributed to this effort," said Professor Bhamra.
"While this is an important milestone, our work does not stop here. I look forward to continuing to champion race equity across our university and ensuring we create lasting, meaningful change."
Chris Howorth, Senior Lecturer and Chair of the University's Race Equality Group shared, "As part of our commitment to advancing race equity, we engaged in a University-wide process of deep reflection on our policies, practices, and culture which allowed us to identify gaps, uncover new opportunities, and strengthen institutional efforts in meaningful ways."
"The award affirms our commitment to sustained progress, but we are fully aware that our continuous dedication to implementing change is key, and that extends beyond accreditation."

RUSH UNIVERSITY: RESEARCH PROJECTS ARE PERSONAL FOR GRANT AWARDEES
While researchers strive to be objective and present their findings based on evidence, the pursuit of the facts can still be personal, especially in the health sciences.
"Research can feel personal for several reasons, depending on the individual's connection to the work," says Lauren Little, PhD, OTR/L, FAOTA, associate dean of research for CHS and associate professor of occupational therapy. "Researchers often have a personal investment in, and emotional connection to, the topic in which they investigate, often fueled from personal life experiences or clinical encounters."
Research is also personal because it can be connected to a desire for change, Little explains. "Whether we want to change the ways in which individuals access care or the types of care that they receive, research has a personal connection to how we want to influence the world," she says.

SHEFFIELD HALLAM UNIVERSITY: SCIENTISTS TO EXAMINE EFFECTS OF CARBON MONOXIDE ON BLOOD CLOTTING
Funded by the Carbon Monoxide Research Trust (CORT), the new project will examine the impacts of carbon monoxide (CO) on platelet function and its implications for cardiovascular health. Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless gas commonly encountered in urban environments due to pollution, in occupational settings, and sometimes at home from faulty appliances. It is known to affect the heart and lungs and can worsen certain diseases. However, a less explored area is CO's effects on platelets, the tiny blood cell fragments responsible for blood clotting that prevent excessive bleeding. Platelet dysfunction can lead to excessive clotting, contributing to conditions like heart attacks and strokes. While CO is known to influence platelet function, how these change with increasing CO concentrations, the underlying mechanisms, and the broader health implications remain poorly understood.

SOUTHERN CROSS UNIVERSITY: COLLABORATIVE EFFORT TO RESTORE MANGROVES IN BOAMBEE CREEK
Southern Cross University, Gumbaynggirr Rangers and OzFish Unlimited have joined forces to restore a mangrove forest in Boambee Creek for a community driven project making a difference.
Mangroves grow in intertidal zones and are an essential part of the Boambee Creek Estuary. The trees were heavily impacted by a 2021 hailstorm that hit the Coffs Coast but have still not naturally recovered in some areas.
In a codesigned study recently published in Marine and Freshwater Research, the team detected some toxic chemicals in the mangrove roots and documented a range of negative impacts on the aquatic life. This has had serious flow-on effects in the local environment because the mangroves provide important habitat for a wide range of species.
Lead author Professor Kirsten Benkendorff of Southern Cross University initially spotted the forest of dead mangroves as her plane approached Coffs Harbour airport in early 2023.

STONEHILL COLLEGE INC: MANAGEMENT MAJORS BALANCE BUSINESS DOLLARS AND SENSE
When Teddy McElaney '23 entered the Management program, advice from professors helped him zero in on the perfect career path and to find a role in sales. He now serves as a business development consultant for the software giant Oracle.
As they toured college campuses, then-high school senior Sarah Glasheen '18 and her mother had a difference of opinion. Though Glasheen was intent on entering school as a biology major, her mother predicted she'd end up in a career in business. Sarah held firm to the idea of a career as a physician's assistant or a nurse practitioner - but the one thing she and her mother agreed on was the idea of a liberal arts college.
"She said I should start in science if that's where my heart was but that I should choose a school where I had the option to change directions and still graduate in four years," explains Glasheen. "That's what led me to Stonehill."
It was a prudent decision; the combination of being squeamish in biology lab and a couple of well-timed business courses proved her mother's instincts right by drawing Glasheen to the management program. She now works on the business side of health as an administrative manager at Massachusetts General Hospital.

SYRACUSE: MESSAGE FROM CHIEF STUDENT EXPERIENCE OFFICER ALLEN W. GROVES
Dear Members of the Orange Community:
It is with profound sadness that I write to remember two members of our Syracuse University community, whose lives were cut short last Thursday when they were struck by a vehicle at the intersection of University Avenue and East Adams Street.
Both individuals were international graduate students in the College of Engineering and Computer Science who came to Syracuse to advance their academic careers. They were accomplished scholars with wide-ranging interests-spanning electrical engineering and bioinstrumentation to computer science, cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. Each brought deep curiosity, purpose and talent to their studies and their research. They will leave a lasting impact on our academic community.
The University has been in contact with their families. In keeping with the families' wishes, we are not sharing the students' names at this time. Still, we grieve their loss deeply and extend our heartfelt condolences to their loved ones, friends and all who knew them.
On behalf of Chancellor Kent Syverud, Interim Provost Lois Agnew, College of Engineering and Computer Science Dean J. Cole Smith, Graduate School Dean Peter Vanable and the entire Orange community, we offer our full support and deepest sympathies during this time of sorrow.
I recognize that this is a difficult moment for many in our community, including those who may have witnessed the accident. Please know that a range of resources is available, and I encourage everyone to check in with one another and seek support as needed:
Students can receive confidential counseling 24 hours a day, seven days a week through the Barnes Center at The Arch by calling 315.443.8000.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY: MEASURING HOW - AND WHERE - ANTARCTIC ICE IS CRACKING WITH NEW DATA TOOL
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - A total collapse of the roughly 80-mile-wide Thwaites Glacier, the widest in the world, would trigger changes that could lead to 11 feet of sea-level rise, according to scientists who study Antarctica. To better predict fractures that could lead to such a collapse - and to better understand the processes driving changes in Antarctic ice shelves - a team led by researchers at Penn State developed a new method to evaluate cracks that destabilize ice shelves and accelerate those losses.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY: COMPUTER SCIENCE GRAD MAKES $1 MILLION ESTATE COMMITMENT TO THE COLLEGE OF IST
After graduating from Penn State with a bachelor's degree in computer science in 1989, Greg Roszyk made his first gift to the University. He has given every year since, progressing through the University's many philanthropic opportunities. Roszyk and his wife, Marnie Salisbury, recently made a $1 million estate commitment to the College of Information Sciences and Technology (IST) and hope to inspire others to find their best path for giving back.
"In 1989, I became a lifetime member of the Penn State Alumni Association, taking advantage of the discounted membership price for new graduates," Roszyk said. "And I immediately started donating, beginning with just $25."
Roszyk continued giving, gradually increasing as he progressed in his career. By the early 2010s, he was committing $1,500 a year and building relationships with Penn State's development team.
Through the process of giving, Roszyk - a partner at EMF Industries, where he provides business and engineering leadership to programs in the defense and intelligence communities - was introduced to the College of IST.
"I majored in computer science, but if there had been an IST back then, it would have been the right fit for me," Roszyk said. "IST's curriculum is well aligned with the work that I do today, and as someone who's hired IST graduates, I've been very impressed by the college."
Roszyk and his wife, Marnie Salisbury, began directing their philanthropy toward IST. Salisbury, who holds a bachelor's degree in computer science from the Rochester Institute of Technology and a master's degree in systems engineering from George Mason University, is the managing director of strategic intelligence at The MITRE Corporation. Working closely with development staff, the couple learned about the opportunity to establish an annually funded scholarship and committed to contributing $2,500 per year for five years.

It concluded 11 days later with a conviction. Today, this battle in the conflict over religion and science in United States classrooms is perhaps best remembered for its climax-the ruthless dissection of prosecutor William Jennings Bryan by Scopes's counsel, Clarence Darrow, dramatized in fictional form in the 1960 film Inherit the Wind.
Nearly forgotten is the role of a half dozen University of Chicago professors and alumni-experts in religion, biology, geology, anthropology and education.

NASA AWARD TO HELP POWER TECHNOLOGIES AT UCHICAGO FOR FUTURE MOON BASES
A water supply that could help NASA set up a permanent lunar base is preserved-or trapped-within craters so deep, the bottoms haven't seen the sun for up to two billion years.
As most of the vehicles and machinery someday used on the moon will likely be solar-powered, this is a problem. But a new NASA grant will help University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering Asst. Prof. Shuolong Yang on his search for a solution.
NASA recently named Yang one of eight recipients of an Early Career Faculty Award to support research that's "critical to making science, space travel, and exploration more effective, affordable, and sustainable."
The grant will help Yang develop a high-temperature superconducting cable, one that can be built into others that will send power to machinery seeking ice deep within the moon's "permanently shadowed regions." It's a bold plan for procuring water to drink, grow crops, split into hydrogen for fuel and oxygen to breathe, and otherwise make the lunar climate habitable.

THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGOCHEMICAL BIOLOGIST LINKS BASIC DISCOVERIES TO TREATMENTS FOR DISEASE
Editor's note: This story is part of Meet a UChicagoan, a regular series focusing on the people who make UChicago a distinct intellectual community. Read about the others here.
Countless articles written about basic biomedical discoveries include some version of the sentence: "The researchers hope this can help develop new treatments for disease."
But the basic scientists studying genes, proteins and cellular mechanisms often aren't the same people doing the development. At some point, they need a partner with the right expertise to build the tools or design a drug molecule to translate those discoveries into clinical therapies.
Hening Lin, the James and Karen Frank Family Professor of Medicine and Chemistry at the University of Chicago, is the rare breed of scientist who can do both. He's a more recent addition to a growing roster of scientists at the University working in the burgeoning field of chemical biology, which links the disciplines of chemistry, molecular biology and medicine to fulfill the promise of those hopeful closing words typed by many a science writer.

It is the first room on any University of Adelaide campus to be dedicated to an Aboriginal woman.
"Nari, who passed in 2023, believed real changes could be made by addressing the gaps she had identified, and wanted to elevate the voices of Aboriginal people with kidney disease to be heard, and their journeys and experiences valued," said AKction research lead Dr Kim O'Donnell.
Nari connected with Inawinytji Tjingilya Williamson, a Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara woman and fellow Kidney Warrior, after chasing down politicians outside Parliament House to advocate for better transport options.
They spoke about their shared experiences, the amount of time they spent waiting for transport and began to identify gaps that they both experienced while receiving kidney care.

UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE: QUANTUM CLOCKS GUARANTEE PRECISE NAVIGATION
Optical quantum clocks developed at the University of Adelaide have been proven to out-perfom GPS navigation systems by many orders of magnitude.
The clocks, which were put through their paces in naval exercises, were developed by a team led by the University of Adelaide's Professor Andre Luiten, Chief Innovator and Chair of Experimental Physics at the Institute of Photonics and Advanced Sensing (IPAS), in partnership with colleagues at the Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG).
"Assured timing is critical for communications and positioning applications, especially at a time when sovereign defence capability is of increasing importance," Professor Luiten said.
"Timing signals are currently provided by the Global Positioning System (GPS), however in contested environments, where GPS may be jammed or spoofed, time synchronisation between locations would rapidly deteriorate.
"A solution to this issue for the Australian Defence Force (ADF) is a sovereign-developed, rugged and portable clock, which could be deployed in the field."

Timothy Noel, Professor of Flow Chemistry at the Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences, has been awarded a Proof of Concept Grant by the European Research Council. Worth EUR150,000, the grant will aid the further development of Noel's concept of an automated, robotized synthesis assistant called RoboChem. Prof. Timothy Noel. Photo by Hans Dirksen.
RoboChem is a fully autonomous, AI-driven robotic platform capable of optimizing reactions with minimal human intervention. Presented in a paper in Science early 2024, it applies the principles of automated flow chemistry to explore photocatalytic synthesis routes. RoboChem holds, however, potential for many other types of reactions. Through validation in industrially relevant contexts, Noel wants to demonstrate RoboChem's transformative potential and pave the way for a spin-off company dedicated to advancing automation in synthetic chemistry.
The ERC Proof of Concept funding will aid in that development, Noel says. "We have identified several key challenges that currently limit RoboChem's full potential. These relate, amongst others, to comparing obtained data with results from literature, as well as optimizing the workflow. By further improving our data-driven reaction optimization framework we will enhance the predictive modelling capacity. Improving the workflow will enhance efficiency, reproducibility, and scalability of the system."

University of Arizona News spoke with Fuls to learn more about the mysterious object traversing our solar system on its journey through interstellar space.
What is special about interstellar objects such as 3I/ATLAS visiting our solar system?
Zoom out and consider that our sun, every planet, asteroid, comet, even every shooting star that you've ever seen, was formed all together as part of our solar system. This object came from an entirely different solar system. We have no idea which one, or how long this thing has been traveling through the void, but it is an actual piece of another star system.

Dalmatian is the name of a female loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) that has laid eggs twice in less than two weeks on the beaches of the peninsular Mediterranean, specifically in Catalonia and the Valencian Community. This nesting episode is an exceptional event that reinforces the importance of scientific monitoring and citizen involvement in the conservation of this endangered species that makes long migrations in areas such as the western Mediterranean.
The first egg laying of the season took place on June 25 on the beach of Sant Feliu de Guixols (Girona), where Dalmata laid 101 eggs. The second, with 129 eggs, occurred on the night of July 8 on the beach of Puig (Valencia). In a context of biodiversity protection, identifying several nests of the same female during a single season allows us to advance in the study of the process of colonization of new nesting areas in the western Mediterranean by this species.
Dalmatian is part of the scientific monitoring of the species C. caretta that is developed through interdisciplinary projects such as Life Turtlenest or InGeNi-Caretta, initiatives in which the University of Barcelona, the Biodiversity Research Institute of the UB (IRBio), the Technological Center in Biodiversity, Ecology and Technology and Environmental and Food Management (BETA) of the University of Vic - Central University of Catalonia participate, the University of Valencia, the Polytechnic University of Valencia and the DoNana Biological Station (EBD-CSIC), in collaboration with marine fauna recovery centres and with the active support of citizens.

The School of Engineering's lab, housed in the Sustainability Research and Engineering building, has been increasingly busy. The Makerspace offers services to courses, research and campus clubs.
Last year, Makerspace staff came to the rescue of Dining Services after a plastic bushing on the door of a cooker in the Pavilion broke. The bushing, part of a latch that holds the lid on the quarter-ton large, tilting skillet, isn't made anymore.
The replacement part was fabricated on a 3D printer in the Makerspace lab. It is believed to be the first time the technique, also known as additive manufacturing, was used to replace a machine part at a UC Merced facility.
Students, staff and faculty can make projects in the space after taking part in a roughly 30-minute training session on the equipment. Pretty quickly, they can be creating something nifty on one of the facility's printers or laser cutters.

As waiting rooms fill up, doctors get increasingly burnt out, and surgeries take longer to schedule and more get cancelled, humanoid surgical robots offer a solution. That's the argument that UC San Diego robotics expert Michael Yip makes in a perspective piece out July 9 in Science Robotics.
Why? Today's surgical robots are costly pieces of equipment designed for specialized tasks and can only be operated by highly trained physicians. However, this model doesn't scale. Despite the drastic improvements in artificial intelligence and autonomy for industrial and humanoid robots in the past year, these improvements haven't translated to surgical robots. The scale of data required to train a truly capable artificial intelligence to perform surgery with today's robots would be too labor-intensive and cost-prohibitive, especially on existing platforms and with current practitioners. Building datasets based on medical procedures also raises privacy issues.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO: WRISTBAND SENSOR PROVIDES ALL-IN-ONE MONITORING FOR DIABETES AND CARDIOVASCULAR CARE
A new wearable wristband could significantly improve diabetes management by continuously tracking not only glucose but also other chemical and cardiovascular signals that influence disease progression and overall health. The technology was published in Nature Biomedical Engineering.
The flexible wristband consists of a microneedle array that painlessly samples interstitial fluid under the skin to measure glucose, lactate and alcohol in real time using three different enzymes embedded within the tiny needles. Designed for easy replacement, the microneedle array can be swapped out to tailor wear periods. This reduces the risk of allergic reactions or infection while supporting longer-term use.
Simultaneously, the wristband uses an ultrasonic sensor array to measure blood pressure and arterial stiffness, while ECG sensors measure heart rate directly from wrist pulses. These physiological signals are key indicators of cardiovascular risk, which is often elevated in people with diabetes but is rarely monitored continuously outside of a clinical setting.
"Comprehensive and effective management of diabetes requires more than just a single glucose reading," said An-Yi Chang, a postdoctoral researcher in the Aiiso Yufeng Li Family Department of Chemical and Nano Engineering at UC San Diego. Factors like diet, alcohol intake, exercise and stress influence blood sugar and heart health in ways that traditional monitoring systems cannot fully capture.

As U.S. policymakers increase tariffs on goods, particularly those imported from China-a new study from the University of California San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy finds the opposite may be needed to protect one of the country's most powerful economic exports: higher education.
The study, forthcoming in the Review of Economics and Statistics, focuses on China's 2001 entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO), which dramatically boosted Chinese exports to the U.S. and household incomes in certain Chinese cities-making American college tuition suddenly affordable for many families.
"In a very real sense, international students are reversing the trade deficit," said Gaurav Khanna, associate professor of economics at UC San Diego's School of Global Policy and Strategy and coauthor of the study.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGOSTUDY REVEALS HOW DEEP OCEAN CURRENTS SHAPE MICROBIAL LIFE ACROSS SOUTH PACIFIC
Agroundbreaking study in the journal Science, has unveiled how deep ocean currents-known as global overturning circulation-play a pivotal role in shaping the diversity and function of microbial life across the South Pacific Ocean.
This research, led by scientists from J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI), UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and University of California Berkeley offers the most detailed genetic map to date of how microbial communities are structured by the physical movement of ocean water.
Winds and storms only reach to about 500 meters (1,640 feet), about an eighth of the total ocean depth of 4,000 meters (13,125 feet), said study lead author Bethany Kolody, a graduate of Scripps Oceanography who is currently a postdoctoral researcher at Cal. Beyond 500 meters below the surface, currents are driven by differences in water temperature and salinity, which affects its density, forming the global overturning circulation. This circulation acts like a conveyor belt, transporting water-and the microbes within it-across vast distances and depths.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO FOR TASTIER AND HARDIER CITRUS, RESEARCHERS BUILT A TOOL FOR PROBING PLANT METABOLISM
Anew tool allows researchers to probe the metabolic processes occurring within the leaves, stems, and roots of a key citrus crop, the clementine. The big picture goal of this research is to improve the yields, flavor and nutritional value of citrus and non-citrus crops, even in the face of increasingly harsh growing conditions and growing pest challenges.
To build the tool, the team - led by the University of California San Diego - focused on the clementine (Citrus clementina), which is a cross between a mandarin orange and a sweet orange.
The effort is expected to expand well beyond the clementine in order to develop actionable information for increasing the productivity and quality of a wide range of citrus and non-citrus crops. The strategy is to uncover - and then make use of - new insights on how plants respond, in terms of metabolic activities in specific parts of the plant or tree, to environmental factors like temperature, drought and disease.
The tool, and the comprehensive genome-scale model for Citrus clementina, were published July 14, 2025 in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SANTA BARBARA A NUANCED MODEL OF SOIL MOISTURE ILLUMINATES PLANT BEHAVIOR AND CLIMATE PATTERNS
Any home gardener knows they have to tailor their watering regime for different plants. Forgetting to water their flowerbed over the weekend could spell disaster, but the trees will likely be fine. Plants have evolved different strategies to manage their water use, but soil moisture models have mostly neglected this until now.
Researchers at UC Santa Barbara and San Diego State University sought a way to move beyond simple on/off models to capture the nuanced ways that plants manage water stress. To this end, they developed a nonlinear model that can observe these behaviors in satellite data. Their methodology, published in Geophysical Research Letters, will improve climate models and inform our own water management strategies.
"We found that plants don't respond to water stress in a simple, straight-line way," said senior author Kelly Caylor, a professor at UCSB's Bren School of Environmental Science & Management. "Instead, they have dynamic response patterns that reveal whether they're 'water spenders' or 'water savers.'"

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SANTA BARBARA NEW MATHEMATICAL INSIGHTS INTO LAGRANGIAN TURBULENCE
Asneeze. Ocean currents. Smoke. What do these have in common? They're instances of turbulence: unpredictable, chaotic, uneven fluid flows of fluctuating velocity and pressure. Though ubiquitous in nature, these flows remain somewhat of a mystery, theoretically and computationally.
"Most flows that we encounter in nature are turbulent - it does not matter whether it is the flow outside the airplane that makes us fasten our seatbelts, or the flow in a small stream," said UC Santa Barbara mathematics professor Bjorn Birnir. "Turbulence is difficult to understand because the mathematical models that describe it are nonlinear, stochastic and the solutions are unstable. This made it necessary to develop new theories to truly understand the nature of turbulence."
Fortunately, Birnir and Luiza Angheluta of the University of Oslo are getting us closer to being able to characterize turbulence, with an approach that captures some of the myriad complex phenomena that occur over the evolution of a turbulent flow.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SANTA BARBARA RIVERS CHOOSE THEIR PATH BASED ON EROSION -A DISCOVERY THAT COULD TRANSFORM FLOOD PLANNING AND RESTORATION
Rivers are Earth's arteries. Water, sediment and nutrients self-organize into diverse, dynamic channels as they journey from the mountains to the sea. Some rivers carve out a single pathway, while others divide into multiple interwoven threads. These channel patterns shape flood risks, erosion hazards and ecosystem services for more than 3 billion people who live along river corridors worldwide.
Understanding why some waterways form single channels, while others divide into many threads, has perplexed researchers for over a century. Geographers at UC Santa Barbara mapped the thread dynamics along 84 rivers with 36 years of global satellite imagery to determine what dictates this aspect of river behavior.
"We found that rivers will develop multiple channels if they erode their banks faster than they deposit sediment on their opposing banks. This causes a channel to widen and divide over time," said lead author Austin Chadwick, who conducted this study as a postdoctoral researcher at UCSB.

Environmental degradation is more than just an ecological issue, it's also a societal problem. It's in humanity's long-term interest to steward the Earth and the resources and services it provides. So why does it seem so difficult to get people to do what will serve them best over time?
The answer comes down to how incentives are laid out. By getting incentives right, we can produce the behavior we want. That's economics 101, and precisely what Professor Andrew Plantinga of UC Santa Barbara's Bren School of Environmental Science & Management has dedicated his career to studying.
Plantinga has been elected a fellow of the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists (AERE), which honors as many as three scholars annually.

In his speech for the College of Agriculture, Health and Natural Resources (CAHNR) this past spring, keynote speaker Rodney Butler '99 (BUS), Chairman of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, told an abbreviated version of the Indigenous creation story of Skywoman.
"When the world was covered in water, Skywoman fell from an opening in the Skyworld and landed on the back of a giant turtle. Skywoman enlisted the help of many animals to dive deep to retrieve soil from the depths of the ocean in an effort to create land. Many animals attempted to grab the soil, but it was the unlikely muskrat, who was both humble and courageous, that was able to return the soil and place it on the back of the great turtle. As the mud is placed on the turtle's back, it grows and expands, eventually forming the continents and life-sustaining world we know today."

The Faculty of Law of the University of Costa Rica (UCR) announced the creation of the Observatory of the Constitutional State of Law, an initiative that, based on the monitoring and analysis of the national event, seeks to point out the threats to democracy and the fundamental rights of the citizenry.
The project will give rise to spaces for discussion with people experts in various subjects, while promoting research work among the student population that will allow reflection on the mechanisms of control of political power in the country.
Magally Hernandez, coordinator of the Observatory, pointed out the need for the academy to refer to events that at the national and global levels violate the constitutional rule of law, in which power must be controlled and fundamental rights must be respected.
Today it is important to be vigilant about the threats and attacks on our democracy. The events that occur in different parts of the world and that can also happen in our country, show us the need to be vigilant of our Constitutional Rule of Law and to verify its progressiveness," emphasized the academic.
The jurist stressed that, according to the Rule of Law Index developed by the international organization World Justice Project (WJP) to measure compliance with the rule of law in the different countries of the world, Costa Rica went from 25th place in 2020 to 29th place today.
Costa Rica has lost 4 points on that scale and is still striking why our country is going backwards in this area and in that sense it is important that the Academy, as an external entity, be able to examine the situation, the expert said.

UNIVERSITY OF DENVER: FROM TEXTBOOKS TO TECH: AUGMENTED REALITY LEVELS UP LANGUAGE LEARNING
How do you keep high school kids engaged in the classroom? One University of Denver professor thinks he has the answer: augmented reality, or AR.
In a new study, Ebrahim Bamanger, teaching assistant professor of Arabic, has found that using an AR-based curriculum can significantly increase student motivation to learn-specifically, to learn English as a second language. Motivation, Bamanger writes, is "an indicator of the success of the educational process" and an important aspect of a holistic educational approach.
AR is a form of technology that combines computer-generated images with the real world in real time, allowing AR users to "view" the digital and physical worlds together. An example of popular AR is the Pokemon Go mobile game, which allows users to "see" animated characters in the world around them through their smartphone cameras. Meta produces AR glasses that allows users to play holographic games and watch videos amid a real-life background.
"Amazon uses it to show customers how products will look in their homes," Bamanger says. "You're buying a table, and you can use augmented reality to see how the table will look in your living room."

An animal species is considered endangered when it faces a high extinction risk in the wild. This means that the species is going extinct at a much faster pace than expected. It is a warning sign for both scientists and other creatures in nature.

Tested in swine, the drug shows promise in treating traumatic brain injury
Researchers from the University of Georgia found a new drug that may boost the brain's ability to heal itself after injury. The discovery could lead to significant advances in treating traumatic brain injuries, or TBIs.
There are currently no FDA-approved drugs that directly repair or prevent brain damage following TBI, a major gap in treatment. The compound, called CMX-2043, may help fill that void by increasing the enzymes that play a crucial role in mopping up harmful molecules after injury.

West is also co-founder of the university's Regenerative Bioscience Center. "We saw clear increases in enzymes. Basically, they're the cleanup crew that rushes in after an injury.

UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII SYSTEMS: RAIN EVENTS COULD CAUSE MAJOR FAILURE OF WAIKīKī STORM DRAINAGE BY 2050
Existing sea level rise models for coastal cities often overlook the impacts of rainfall on infrastructure. Researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa predicted that by 2050, large rain events combined with sea level rise could cause flooding severe enough to disrupt transportation and contaminate stormwater inlets (grate or curb opening in Waikiki's streets that collects rainwater and directs it into the storm drainage system) across 70% of Waikiki, due to interactions with water in the Ala Wai Canal. Their study was published in July 2025 in Scientific Reports.

(Photo credit: Matthew Gosner; courtesy Hawaiʻi Sea Grant King Tides Project) "We've known that sea level rise will reduce the capacity for our drainage system to handle surface runoff, however, including rainfall events in our models showed that Waikiki's drainage infrastructure could fail sooner than we anticipated," said Chloe Obara, lead author of the study who was a graduate student in the Department of Earth Sciences at the UH Manoa School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) at the time of this research. "This study highlights the importance of incorporating rainfall and drainage infrastructure into coastal flood models to better understand how drivers of coastal flooding change over time."

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS CANCER CENTER: NEW BOOK DELVES INTO BIGOTRY IN CRITICAL, NONPARTISAN MANNER SEEKING TO ANALYZE HOW HATE IS TAUGHT
American popular culture tends to think of bigotry as the product of ignorance that can be cured by increased education. But what if popular culture is wrong? A University of Kansas professor has written a new book that takes a deep dive into the topic of bigotry and how it functions in a critical, nonpartisan way.
"On Bigotry: Twenty Lessons on How Bigotry Works and What to Do About It," by Nicholas Ensley Mitchell, assistant professor of curriculum & teaching, comes out July 10 from Bloomsbury Publishing.
"I say in the introduction this book will not teach you to win an argument," Mitchell said. "If that is what you are looking for, then this book is not for you. Why? Because arguing with bigots is useless. We already know what they are going to say: You're inferior, and I'm superior."
Instead, Mitchell said, the book can demystify bigotry for people.
"I think for people who experience bigotry as either a victim or as someone bigots try to convert to bigotry, it is truly an assault on the mind that can be overwhelming," he said. "What the book is trying to do is present bigotry in a way that helps people understand what they are encountering because you can't truly resist an idea until you understand how it molds people, how it instructs people, how it defends itself and how it demands people behave."

"It is interesting to see management and innovation scholars collaborating with natural scientists on topics as diverse as biodiversity accounting, sustainable value chains and business models", said Dr Lisa Pace.
The work that Dr Pace presented reflects preliminary findings from the POSEIDON project on 'Exploring Pathways tOward Sustainable ocEan futures: tensIons, traDe-offs, and just transitiONs' that aims to explore sustainability futures as strategic courses of action or pathways adopted by various actors to transition from present conditions towards preferred future visions or clearly defined objectives.

Offered for the first time during academic year 2024/25, this stand-alone micro-credential is designed to empower educators to integrate practical financial education into their daily teaching. The programme supports cross-curricular integration across a variety of subjects, including mathematics, ICT, ethics, business studies, physical education, and general primary education.
This initiative is the result of a collaborative agreement between the Centre for Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Centre for Excellence in Financial Capability and Entrepreneurship. It reflects a broader national effort to promote financial literacy and entrepreneurial thinking within the school environment.
The certificate presentation ceremony, held on 18 June 2025, was presided over by Professor David Mifsud, Director of CLAS. Also present were officials from the Ministry of Education, representatives from the HSBC Malta Foundation, and members of the Centre for Excellence in Financial Capability and Entrepreneurship.

UNIVERSITY OF MALTA: MALTESE ACADEMIC RECEIVES PRESTIGIOUS HONOUR BY THE SOCIETY OF AMERICAN ARCHIVISTS
It is a pleasure to announce that Dr Valeria Vanesio from the University's Department of Library Information and Archive Sciences has, together with Dr Ilaria Scaglia from Aston University in the UK, recently received the prestigious Waldo Gifford Leland Award from the Society of American Archivists.
They received this award for their work as editors of the collection Archives and Emotions: International Dialogues Across Past, Present, and Future, published by Bloomsbury in 2025.
The award is given for writing of superior excellence and usefulness in the fields of archival history, theory, and practice.
Archives and Emotions is a landmark piece written together by archivists and historians to investigate the many ways in which emotions have and continue to influence archival history and practice. Building on the "emotional turn" in the study of history and the humanities, this impressively edited volume brings together a wide range of contributors from numerous countries, traditions, and types of archives to explore how emotions and affect shape the construction and management of archives, as well as the individuals and communities that engage with them.
The cover is meant to reflect this: it is an original work of art made specifically for the book by Nunzia Spadolino, who dubbed the piece "Pagine di Emozioni."

EVENTS CALENDAR: ACADEMIC RESEARCH, REAL-WORLD IMPACT: UM RESEARCHER DELIVERS OPENING KEYNOTE AT EUROPE'S LARGEST SOFTWARE TESTING CONFERENCE
Software testing is vital for the delivery and support of applications that affect all of us, whether apps on our phones, systems to help run finance and business, avionics software in planes. or medical systems used in hospitals. It's performed by specialist testers, developers and others in IT projects, and is supported by tools.
After a career in industry of nearly 40 years, UM doctoral researcher Isabel Evans has been applying HCI techniques to understand the characteristics of the people testing software, and their experiences with the tools they use. This work forms part of her PhD research within the Faculty of ICT, under the supervision of Prof. Chris Porter and Prof. Mark Micallef.
In June, Isabel presented the opening keynote at the largest industry software testing conference in Europe, EuroSTAR 2025, to describe her work: "Breaking Tester Stereotypes: who is testing and why it matters". It was well received, and scored as outstanding in content and delivery by the industry practitioners in the audience.
This work was completed through a qualitative study of testers from multiple countries, working in many domains. She discovered that testers in industry do not meet the recruitment stereotype for an IT person. The research uncovered information about their backgrounds, hobbies, roles and characteristics. Breaking stereotyping, better supporting diversity in testers' backgrounds and characteristics, might encourage changes in recruitment, on-boarding, approaches, tool support and attitudes to the testing activity.
After asking testers about their experiences with tools, she discovered that a good user interface is not enough to guarantee the desired outcomes from a tool.

The community is not in imminent danger of the fire itself, but as people across Manitoba experienced this week, poor air quality due to wildfires can cause coughing, irritation, wheezing and chest pains.
Those effects are more acutely felt the closer you get to the fire zone, says University of Manitoba associate professor Dr. Chris Pascoe, who specializes in respiratory diseases like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
"Right at the site of the fire, or near the fire, the levels of these particulates can get to the point where respiratory symptoms and health concerns can set in very quickly," Pascoe told CBC.

A natural remedy that has previously helped counter oil spills will be too slow to "do any useful work" if there's a spill in the Canadian Arctic, increasing chances of "catastrophic" harm, researchers say.
Preliminary findings from the GenIce II research team, led by Eric Collins from the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, suggest oil-degrading microbes respond very slowly to oil-contaminated Arctic waters.
"We do see that it takes at least a few weeks or a month for the microbes to respond and actually start to break down the oil, and that's just too long in the case of a real oil spill," said Collins, who has a doctorate in biological oceanography and is a Canada Research Chair in Arctic Marine Microbial Ecosystem Services.

UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-ST LOUIS: MFA GRAD ALYSHA BLACK SELECTED FOR FULBRIGHT ENGLISH TEACHING ASSISTANT AWARD IN BELGIUM
As soon as she started the Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing program at the University of Missouri-St. Louis in 2021, Alysha Black found herself asking one question, time and again: "Why didn't I do this sooner?"
Like many people, Black felt like her world had been turned upside down by the COVID-19 pandemic. Her career, which started with a dream position developing educational programs and exhibits at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. and led her to teach elementary through college students across both St. Louis and D.C., came to a screeching halt. When her two children shifted to virtual learning amid the pandemic, Black left her job as a middle school teacher in St. Louis in order to stay home with them. A longtime writer, she found herself craving a bit more structure in her work, and the timing felt right to go back to school for her MFA.
"I fell in love with UMSL once I got there, even though it was during the pandemic," Black said. "As pretty much anyone who's had the opportunity to be part of UMSL in some capacity knows, it's a St. Louis gem. I was really impressed with the people I met and the professors, who were really excited about what they do and willing to take the time to help. I just can't say enough good things about it in that respect."
Black found a supportive network in her peers, all of whom were excited about reading and writing, from casual hobbyists to public school teachers to younger students just out of undergrad. As an older student with a job and a family, she particularly appreciated the flexibility of the program.
"You can have a full-time job and still get top-notch instruction," she said. "There are great creative writing programs at other institutions, but they require you to do your degree in two years nonstop, and a lot of people can't do that, no matter how serious they are about their writing."

UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-ST LOUIS: UMSL AND ENROLL ML ANNOUNCE AI-POWERED PARTNERSHIP TO REDEFINE STUDENT ENROLLMENT AND RETENTION
Colleges and universities nationwide are navigating a shifting enrollment landscape marked by fewer high school graduates and changing student expectations. These trends require more than minor adjustments; they demand rethinking how to engage prospective students and guide them toward successful outcomes.
The University of Missouri-St. Louis is using that new reality as an opportunity to rethink and improve upon traditional enrollment efforts. It has launched a new partnership with artificial intelligence enrollment company enroll ml, whose market-leading enrollment data platform combines the deep pattern recognition of machine learning with the contextual reasoning capabilities of generative AI to help institutions deploy more efficient, cost-effective and personalized enrollment experience.
The partnership will go beyond the typical relationship between an institution and a third-party vendor. As part of the multiyear relationship, UMSL and enroll ml will be working together to explore how the deep insights of machine learning and the contextual reasons of both agentic and generative AI can improve the processes to attract, enroll and retain students.
"The University of Missouri-St. Louis, in partnership with enroll ml, would like to be the thought leader as it relates to how AI will positively impact enrollment management processes and strategy while maintaining a keen focus on both AI ethics, privacy and security," said Reggie Hill, UMSL's vice chancellor for strategic enrollment and career advancement. "In the past, volume has allowed us to sustain enrollment nationally and regionally. What we know is that the Midwest is shrinking by double digits in terms of its enrollment growth, and we need to utilize advanced technology to better figure out how to connect and engage with students. This partnership with enroll ml will allow us to collaborate deeply with enroll ml's advanced technology to improve our end-to-end student experience."

Every year, 15 million babies are born prematurely around the world. For these children, each additional day in the womb can have a decisive impact on their health and quality of life. Now scientists are proposing an effective and affordable solution to prevent premature births.
Led by Universite de Montreal PhD candidate France Cote and supervised by UdeM pharmacology professor Sylvain Chemtob, their study was published earlier this month in EMBO Molecular Medicine.
The research was 15 years in the making and builds on the pioneering discoveries of UdeM biochemist Christiane Quiniou.
Quiniou was the first to design peptides targeting the interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor, a cytokine that's essential to innate immunity and that helps trigger premature labor. The UdeM scientists developed a peptide called HSJ633 that's a game-changer in how prematurity is managed.

UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA MEDICAL CENTER: SWEDEN TRIP SHOWS PHD STUDENTS NEW WORLD OF NURSING
Two UNMC College of Nursing graduate students had the chance to gain valuable insights into how health care for infants operates in a different country.
Kortney Curtman and Melinda Pariser-Schmidt, both PhD students with infant-related focuses, spent Feb. 2-7 in Sweden visiting neonatal intensive care units across the country as part of a 22-person delegation assembled by the National Association of Neonatal Nurses.
"This was really groundbreaking for us, because Sweden has the lowest rate of neonatal mortality in the world, so they obviously do many, many things very well," Pariser-Schmidt said. "We were really excited to go and learn and figure out what nuggets we can bring back and try to disseminate into our respective practices and the organizations we connect with."
One of the starkest differences they noted between NICUs in the United States and Sweden was the role of the nurse. In the U.S., Curtman said, the nurse's primary role in the NICU is to care for the patient, whereas in Sweden, nurses empower family members to care for the child while in the unit.

UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA MEDICAL CENTER: CONNECT MAGAZINE SPOTLIGHT: Q&A WITH HOLLY ZIMMERMAN
When Holly Zimmerman was a student at the University of Southern Mississippi, she took a genetics class during her sophomore year. Little did she know she'd eventually lead UNMC's master's in genetic counseling program and serve as its founding director.
Q. What sparked your interest in genetics and genetics counseling?
A. I have always loved math and science. I discovered genetics in college, and it just made sense. My professor said I could explore a career in research or consider the field of genetic counseling.
Q. You were once the only genetic counselor in Mississippi. How does Nebraska compare?
A. As the only genetic counselor in Mississippi for four years, it was an exciting time to define the field through interprofessional collaborations and patient care. I recognized my love for building programs and teaching. Nebraska has been fantastic in that the number of genetic counseling colleagues immediately doubled. (In 2017, I went from four genetic counselors in Mississippi to eight at UNMC.) Today, there are 24 at UNMC (and growing) and three more in Lincoln. I also find the people similar in that Nebraskans are kind and work hard.
Q. Genetic counseling is a fast-growing field. Why?
A. We better understand how genetics can impact health. Our field started in pediatrics; now, we are in prenatal, cancer, adult as well as specialty clinics like neurology, ophthalmology and cardiology. Beyond the clinic, genetic counselors work in education, public policy, research, insurance and genetic testing companies.

What began as a collaboration between UNLV's dance and physical therapy departments has blossomed into a full-fledged interdisciplinary clinic, where students from the College of Fine Arts receive free physical therapy services, courtesy of UNLV's physical therapy students.
Under faculty supervision, students provide exams that focus on general orthopedic physical therapy conditions, most commonly sprains, strains, overuse injuries, and non-specific back pain.
In addition, dance students can make an appointment for an eight-part screening that assesses mobility, posture, turnout, flexibility, strength, and more. An initial exam can also lead to a medical referral to UNLV's Student Health Center for additional services.
"These dancers and musicians have similar demands and schedules to student-athletes," said Dustin Clow, a physical therapy professor within UNLV's School of Integrated Health Sciences.

OXFORD'S ORGANOX WINS THE MACROBERT AWARD 2025
The Royal Academy of Engineering has announced that OrganOx has won the Pound50,000 MacRobert Award, the longest running and most prestigious prize for UK engineering innovation, for its life-saving technology that is supporting more organ transplants and helping to cut waiting lists.
The University of Oxford spinout has developed two of the most complex medical devices ever designed and built in the UK. They maintain livers and kidneys in a functioning state outside the body for at least twice as long as conventional cold preservation techniques, dramatically increasing the number of transplants for patients, eradicating night-time operations for clinicians, and reducing overall healthcare costs for providers.
A third, patient-connected device can also be used to provide 'liver dialysis' using either a human or porcine organ outside the body, to help patients in liver failure to recover without the need for a transplant.
Operating at body temperature (37C), the devices replicate the physiological conditions of an organ within the body by perfusing it with a red-cell suspension reconstituted from donor blood of the same blood type. This allows fully automated, operator-independent preservation of an organ in a functioning state outside the body for periods of up to 24 hours clinically and several days pre-clinically.

UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD EXPERT COMMENT: WHAT IS THE ROLE OF COMMUNITY ENERGY SYSTEMS IN ACHIEVING UNIVERSAL ENERGY ACCESS
In the UK, we often take access to energy for granted. Yet it underpins virtually every aspect of daily life-from food and healthcare, to communication and transport. Globally, it enables sustainable development by improving educational outcomes, increasing clean water availability, and building climate adaptation capacity. Its centrality in the UN Sustainable Development Goals underscores a shared understanding: equitable development hinges on universal energy access.
Achieving this goal, however, is far from straightforward. Though policy-making and planning tends to focus on national-scale grid extension, this is not a panacea. The estimated 750 million people who remain without electricity access globally are predominantly located in rural, remote areas, where traditional grid expansion is neither technically nor financially viable. Even where grids are present, households may lack the means or motivation to connect, or the appliances to make use of their connection. Alternative solutions are needed to close this gap.

PORTSMOUTH EXPERT CONTRIBUTES TO UK GOVERNMENT REPORT AS PART OF AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE CRIMINAL COURTS
A UK government report published this week (9 July) reveals how severe delays amid the Crown Court backlog crisis are having a significant impact on victims, witnesses, defendants, and prisons.
The report, Independent Review of the Criminal Courts part 1, which emphasises the severity of the current issues, includes contributions from several experts, including Michelle McDermott, Subject Area Lead for Community Justice at the University of Portsmouth.
Published by the Ministry of Justice, the report details how the severe delays within the Crown Court have been caused by years of underfunding, outdated court facilities, staffing shortages, and poor coordination across agencies, requiring a comprehensive, system-wide solution.
The report further highlights that, as of December 2024, there were over 75,000 outstanding cases in the Crown Court - more than twice the number in 2019, with trials scheduled as far ahead as 2029.
Michelle McDermott from the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of Portsmouth provided valuable insights on the probation service, its role in sentencing through the provision of pre-sentence reports, and how it is affected by and contributes to the wider crisis.
She also highlighted the importance of report quality and timeliness, referencing promising pilot programmes. However, this work takes place against a backdrop of significant structural change, including the privatisation and subsequent reunification of the service, alongside persistent challenges in recruitment, retention, and workload pressures.
"The probation service plays a key role in delivering timely and fair justice" said Ms McDermott. "High-quality pre-sentence reports are essential for helping courts make informed sentencing decisions that support rehabilitation and protect the public.

PORTSMOUTH EXPERT HELPS SHAPE UK GOVERNMENT REPORT WITH CRITICAL EVIDENCE ON SOCIAL MEDIA'S ROLE IN SOUTHPORT RIOTS
As a result of a recent social media inquiry, a government report published today (11 July) highlights growing concerns about online safety and how digital platforms indirectly profit from social unrest through advertising revenue.
The report, Social media, misinformation and harmful algorithms, highlights critical evidence on the risks associated with social media, provided by several experts, including Dr Karen Middleton, a Senior Lecturer from the School of Strategy, Marketing and Innovation at the University of Portsmouth.
Published by the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee, the report emphasises the need for new standards, addressing gaps in the regulation of digital advertising as well as the legislation on generative AI.
Expanding on the hearing from earlier this year in which the committee, including Dr Middleton, discussed a rising concern in UK online safety laws, the report highlights the concerns over the Online Safety Act (OSA)'s role in regulating areas such as misinformation and AI. The government inquiry also heard from social media platforms and those affected by the Southport riots, highlighting the need for additional action to address the spread of online misinformation monetised by advertising.
The Online Safety Act was primarily designed, rightly to protect children from online harm. However, in the report, MPs explore flaws in Ofcom's current regulation of digital media as it overlooks online misinformation. The report explains that digital media algorithms favour ad views and engagement above authenticity and safety. This prompts concerns over the safety of the UK public and the report urges the government to further regulate social media companies to tackle the spread of false content online.
Digital advertising has also been identified as an issue, with the business models of social media companies encouraging the algorithmic spread of engaging content. Dr Middleton found that the algorithmic spread of false and harmful content has strong ties to the digital advertising market, which was estimated at $790 billion worldwide in 2024.
Dr Middleton, from the Faculty of Business and Law at the University of Portsmouth, said: "Digital advertising is the financial engine behind much of the content we see online, including harmful misinformation. The current system is complex, opaque, and profit-driven, and has allowed disinformation networks and even criminal enterprises to thrive unchecked.

NEW SPECIES OF TINY CRETACEOUS MAMMAL DISCOVERED BY UNIVERSITY OF PORTSMOUTH STUDENT
A University of Portsmouth student has discovered a new species of prehistoric mammal dating back 145 million years to the Berriasian age, providing fresh insights into the diversity of early mammals that lived alongside dinosaurs.
Benjamin Weston, an undergraduate palaeontology student, made the remarkable discovery while conducting fieldwork in the cliffs of Durlston Bay near Swanage, Dorset. The fossilised lower jaw he found represents a completely new species of multituberculate - an extinct group of early mammals known for the distinctive tubercles on their posterior teeth.
The 16.5mm-long jaw is characterised by a long pointed incisor at the front, followed by a gap and then four razor-sharp premolars. While superficially resembling a rabbit's jaw, the pointed incisors and distinctive premolars identify it as belonging to the multituberculate group.
This discovery, published in Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, marks the first multituberculate jaw found at Swanage since Victorian times, and its unique size and shape confirmed it as an entirely new species.
"I instantly had my suspicions of what the jaw was when I found it at the beach, but couldn't have imagined where the discovery would take me," said Ben Weston. "I'm extremely grateful to the team and to the university for helping me take my first steps into academic palaeontology.

UNIVERSITY OF PORTSMOUTH: PROBING THE COSMIC DARK AGES FROM THE FAR SIDE OF THE MOON
Cosmologists from the University of Portsmouth are part of an international team which wants to unlock the secrets of the 'Cosmic Dawn', by sending a miniature spacecraft to listen out for an "ancient whisper" on the far side of the Moon.
The proposed mission will study the very early universe, right after the Big Bang, when it was still quite dark and empty before the first stars and galaxies appeared.
But to probe the cosmic 'Dark Ages', silence is essential. And Earth is a very 'noisy' place for radio signals, with interference from our atmosphere and all our electronics.
"It's like trying to hear that whisper while a loud concert is playing next door," said Dr Eloy de Lera Acedo, who is presenting the proposal today at the Royal Astronomical Society's National Astronomy Meeting 2025 in Durham.
"This makes it really hard to pick up those faint signals from billions of years ago. To detect a special radio signal that comes from hydrogen - the first, most basic and most abundant chemical element - in the early universe, we need it to be quiet.
"That's why we're proposing to send a small satellite to orbit the Moon and detect a signal which could hold clues about how everything began and how structures like galaxies eventually formed."
The UK-led CosmoCube mission would observe from the far side of the Moon, which acts like a giant shield, blocking out all the radio noise from Earth.
This would create a clear, quiet spot to "listen" for an "ancient whisper" and learn more about the universe's Dark Ages and Cosmic Dawn - periods that are currently largely unexplored.
"By doing this, CosmoCube aims to help us better understand how our universe transformed from a simple, dark state to the complex, light-filled cosmos we see today, with all its stars and galaxies," said de Lera Acedo, head of Cavendish Radio Astronomy and Cosmology at the University of Cambridge.
"Crucially, it will also help scientists investigate the mysterious dark matter and its role in shaping these cosmic structures."

UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND: CHILD HEARING LOSS MORE COMMON IN CULTURALLY AND LINGUISTICALLY DIVERSE FAMILIES
Children from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) families are more likely to have hearing loss compared to their ethnic majority peers, research led by The University of Queensland has found.
Researchers analysed 1,469 children aged 11-12 living in Australia, finding that the children from CALD backgrounds had 58 per cent higher odds of hearing loss compared to peers from ethnic majority backgrounds.
PhD student and audiologist Dumini de Silva from UQ's School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences said the likelihood of hearing loss was related to several factors including how well children's parents speak English and how long they have lived in Australia.
"There were higher odds of hearing loss among children from CALD communities whose primary caregivers were more recent immigrants and reported a lower level of English language proficiency," Ms de Silva said.
"A longer residency in Australia reduces the likelihood of hearing loss among children from CALD backgrounds."
The study found other reasons for hearing loss could include genetic factors, as well as barriers to accessing and utilising health services such as cultural beliefs, a lack of trust of healthcare institutions and limited availability of interpreting services in hearing clinics.

UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND: TINY ANTIBODY HAS BIG IMPACT ON DEADLY HENDRA AND NIPAH VIRUSES
Researchers have discovered a strategy to neutralise two highly lethal viruses for which there is currently no approved vaccine or cure.
A team led by Professor Daniel Watterson and Dr Ariel Isaacs at The University of Queensland has identified the first ever nanobody to work against Hendra and Nipah, henipaviruses which have jumped from animals to people in Asia and Australia.
"A nanobody is one-tenth the size of an antibody and being that small it can access hard-to-reach areas of a virus to block infection," Dr Isaacs said.
"Nanobodies are also easier to produce and more stable at higher temperatures than traditional antibodies, so we are very excited about the potential of our discovery to lead to new treatments."
The nanobody, called DS90, was among a series isolated by research partners at Universidad Austral de Chile from the immune cells of an alpaca called Pedro.
Camelids, including alpacas, are the only land animals which produce nanobodies.
DS90 was identified via a platform developed by Professor Alejandro Rojas-Fernandez which can isolate nanobodies against viruses of concern.
"Together with UQ, we aimed to construct a broad barrier against future pandemic viruses based on scalable antiviral nanobodies - this fantastic work is just the beginning," Professor Rojas-Fernandez said.
Tests at Professor Watterson's laboratory at UQ's School of Chemistry and Molecular Biosciences confirmed DS90 could bind successfully to proteins in Hendra and Nipah viruses and block their ability to enter cells.

The University of Salford's Dr Melanie Stephens has been shortlisted for the accolade at the Nursing Times Awards, which bring together the nursing community to shine a light on the brightest talent in the profession and recognise those making nursing innovative, patient-focused and inclusive.
Melanie, who is an Associate Professor in Adult Nursing, has been recognised for her work to embed Interprofessional Education (IPE) across the University's student curriculum. IPE sees students from different health and social care courses work together, just as they will in the workplace, to improve their teamwork, communication and understanding of each other's roles.
Over several years, Melanie developed and led an innovative IPE project based in care homes across Greater Manchester. Learners from different professional backgrounds worked together, shared their expertise, and gained a more holistic understanding of person-centred care.
Across two studies the project involved 54 students from a range of disciplines, including Nursing (Adult, Learning Disability, and Mental Health), Physiotherapy, Dietetics, Occupational Therapy, and Sports Rehabilitation. These students undertook placements in the care homes, where they gained invaluable experience and developed interprofessional working skills.
A robust evaluation demonstrated that residents experienced improved quality of life, students deepened their understanding of collaborative practice, and care home staff felt inspired and valued and gained valuable evidence-based practices. Academics involved in the project also supported care staff through mentorship, helping to build capacity and ensure sustainability.

In response to Donald Trump's proposed 30% tariff on EU imports, the University of Salford Economist, Matthew Allen, shared his thoughts. Matthew comments:
"Donald Trump's proposed 30% tariff on EU imports is likely to send shockwaves through global trade, with significant ripple effects for UK consumers and businesses. While the UK is no longer part of the EU, it remains closely tied to EU supply chains. Many British firms import components and goods from the EU that are later exported to the US, meaning UK businesses could be indirectly hit by this tariff hike.
"For UK exporters who operate as part of EU-based manufacturing or distribution hubs, this move could drive up costs, cause delivery delays, and disrupt established trade flows. Sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and pharmaceuticals where cross-border production is standard may be particularly exposed.

#MyFirstJob is a series focused on recent graduates of the University of South Alabama.
As a child in the Midwest with its rampant tornadoes, Hannah Fink became her family's unofficial "weather girl," monitoring storms and calling her grandparents to alert them to tornado warnings.
"Growing up, I loved watching meteorologists like Tom Skilling and storm chaser Pecos Hank. I was always watching the weather," she said.
The devastating Rochelle tornado in Illinois on April 9, 2015, part of a rampage of tornadoes throughout the U.S. that day, crystallized her desire to turn her fascination into a career.

UNIVERSITY OF SURREY COMMENTARY: TRUMP WILL INDUCE A SEVERE RECESSION TO SAVE HIS PUBLIC IMAGE
"Putting aside all the rhetoric, Trump's tariffs are deeply self-defeating for the US. Other countries are struggling to find responses because the tariffs are illogical to achieve the nationalist goals which the Trump administration has set as its aims, including more American manufacturing. For example, building up American manufacturing capacity will require significant amounts of copper wire, but with the new copper tariff, the costs of building that needed infrastructure just went up by 50%.
"With the copper tariff increase, tariff levels are already higher than in the Great Depression. Trump can send letters and threaten other countries, but because of his actions in April everyone thinks he will back down because he doesn't want to induce a severe recession. The danger now Trump will have to follow through with his rhetoric to maintain his credibility: he will induce a severe recession to save his public image."

UNIVERSITY OF SURREY ARTIFICIAL SOLAR ECLIPSES IN SPACE COULD SHED LIGHT ON SUN
The Moon-Enabled Sun Occultation Mission (MESOM) proposes a novel way to study the inner solar corona - the innermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere, which is usually only visible during fleeting total solar eclipses on Earth.
It was presented by researchers from the Mullard Space Science Laboratory at University College London (UCL), Aberystwyth University, and the Surrey Space Centre.
If approved, MESOM could operate for two years and capture the equivalent of 80 Earth-based eclipses - an unprecedented opportunity for solar science which could also help researchers gain important clues about how space weather originates.
MESOM would place a small satellite into a special orbit that allows it to align with the Moon's shadow roughly once every 29.6 days - the length of a synodic (lunar) month.
These alignments would mimic the effects of total eclipses, but viewed in space, up to a maximum of 48 minutes - ten times longer than typical eclipses seen from Earth. Unlike terrestrial observations, the satellite would capture data without interference from Earth's atmosphere.

The research team defines ageism in the context of cybercrime as the intentional targeting of older adults as potential victims, driven by the belief that they are wealthy and easy to deceive. This perception, according to the research team, not only reflects a societal bias but also poses a grave threat to the safety and wellbeing of seniors who are navigating an increasingly digital world.

A new Briefing Paper, Diet in Pregnancy, published by the British Nutrition Foundation, combines the findings of academic research and recommendations from authoritative institutions into a roadmap for good nutrition for parents and their babies, from preconception through pregnancy.
iet in Pregnancy is published in the wake of the House of Lords Food, Diet and Obesity Committee's report - Recipe for Health: a plan to fix our broken food system - which emphasises the importance of targeting preconception, pregnancy and early life to improve the overall health of people in the UK.
The British Nutrition Foundation paper, compiled by nutrition science experts and academics*, describes how a healthy, varied diet that meets the increased nutritional demands of pregnancy is essential to support fetal growth, development and maternal health, particularly as requirements for energy, protein and some micronutrients rise during this time.
However, data show that many women of childbearing age are not meeting recommended daily nutrient intakes, which can have a negative effect on their unborn baby's development.

Students will gain specialized training and hands-on experiences to meet the mental health needs of youth, particularly in K-12 schools.
More than half of the Behavioral Health Workforce Education and Training grant-$1.25 million-will go directly to students. Each year for four years, six students in the social work program will receive $25,000 stipends, and five students in the occupational therapy program will receive $32,500 stipends.
The funds are intended to support students who have overcome educational disadvantages and plan to work in the Central Valley, which has some of the most underserved populations in the country. According to the California School Dashboard, between 20-43% of racially minoritized youth in San Joaquin County experience social and emotional distress.
"There is a critical shortage of behavioral health professionals in our region, especially those trained to work with children and adolescents," said Amanda West, chair and program director for social work.

A "housing-first" approach to addressing homelessness and addiction can reduce the likelihood of fatal overdoses and lower health-care costs, according to a new study from the University of Toronto.
The new paper, published in JAMA Network Open, uses mathematical modelling to show the impact of providing stable housing to people experiencing homelessness and opioid addiction. " Isabelle Rao (supplied image)
"Homelessness, substance abuse disorders and a disconnect from healthcare services are all intertwined," says study co-author Isabelle Rao, an assistant professor in U of T's department of mechanical and industrial engineering in the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering. "For example, homelessness increases the likelihood of developing an addiction, while addiction increases the likelihood of losing housing options."
Approaches to treating these interconnected issues typically fall into two general categories: housing-first and treatment-first. Housing-first prioritizes providing permanent housing as quickly as possible, with other supportive services offered afterward. Treatment-first, by contrast, takes the opposite approach.

Professors Santiago Mas-Coma and Maria Dolores Bargues, both from the area of Parasitology, along with professor of Physiology Consuelo Borras, presented the findings on infectious agents, individual infection risks and epidemic threats in the area affected by the flash flood known as DANA in a press conference. The study has been published in the journal One Health and aims to support hospital diagnostics and contribute to improve infrastructure and preventive protocols. The Rector of the University of Valencia, Maria Vicenta Mestre, also took part in the event.
The massive flood caused by the weather phenomenon known as DANA that struck Valencia on 29 October 2024 was unprecedented in its devastation, catastrophic effects and potential impact on public health. The research team launched an initiative to assess the risks of individual infections and infectious epidemics in the extensive area affected. "This work has been led from the outset by the Unit of Health Parasitology of the University of Valencia, internationally recognised as an official collaborating centre of the World Health Organization and a global reference centre of the FAO/United Nations. The complexity of the infectious agents involved required a multidisciplinary approach, prompting close collaboration between different teams who responded promptly to this initiative. To this end, our unit is coordinating a joint effort with other expert groups", explained Maria Dolores Bargues. The study was carried out in collaboration with the University Institute of Tropical Diseases and Public Health of the Canary Islands, part of the University of La Laguna, led by Jacob Lorenzo-Morales, and the MiniAging group of the INCLIVA Health Research Institute, led by Consuelo Borras. Additionally, several teams from other Spanish centres are currently engaged in further research in the affected area, which will yield results to be published in the coming months.

UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA JOAN ROMERO TALKS ABOUT THE CHALLENGES AND DILEMMAS FACING EUROPE AT THE INAUGURATION OF THE 42ND EDITION OF THE SUMMER UNIVERSITY OF GANDIA
On the afternoon of Wednesday, July 9, the Assembly Hall of the Marques Gonzalez de Quiros House of Culture in Gandia hosted the inauguration of the 42nd Summer University of Gandia in an edition that, as its academic director, Carme Melo, pointed out, pays tribute to the victims of the DANA and the group of volunteers who offered their help in this historic catastrophe.
Under the slogan 'Vulnerability and resistance', the vice-principal for Culture and Society, Ester Alba, was in charge of presenting the professor and emeritus professor of the University of Valencia in Geography Joan Romero.
'The moment of Europe' is the title with which the 2025 edition opened in an inaugural conference chaired by the Principal of the University of Valencia, Mavi Mestre, and the Mayor of Gandia, Jose Manuel Prieto, accompanied by the Vice-Principal for Culture and Society, Ester Alba, and for Lifelong Learning, Teaching Transformation and Employment, Angeles Solanes, the Director of the International Center of Gandia, Carme Melo, as well as other members of the Governing Council of the UV and the Municipal Corporation.
Romero focused his speech on a deep and precise reflection on the current moment that we are living globally at a political, social and economic level, pointing to the risks and challenges of the future that we must address as a society and making a clear commitment to Europe as a third way or alternative, from conciliation, as opposed to the populist national path headed by the double axis United States-China.
"This is Europe's moment; It can be this one, if we do it right. We can find alliances with the peoples of the global south, who continue to see Europe as a benchmark of freedoms. But there are also many dilemmas to be addressed: the institutional, social unrest, security and strategic autonomy, the ecological and energy transition or the moral dilemma".
In this sense, towards the end of his speech, the words he dedicated to the situation in Gaza provoked a standing ovation from the audience. "When we witness the largest extermination program organized since World War II and we say nothing, I am ashamed as a European," he said.

UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA SCIENTISTS UNCOVER THE HYDRODYNAMIC SECRET OF EARLY VERTEBRATES
A research team led by the Cavanilles Institute of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology (ICBiBe) of the University of Valencia has revealed how certain primitive vertebrates used their skeletons to improve their stability and hydrodynamic performance. The study, published in the journal Paleobiology, has been conducted using advanced virtual palaeontology techniques and fluid dynamics simulations.
More than 400 million years ago, some vertebrates developed structures similar to those of an aeroplane in mid-flight to move more efficiently through water. These were the ostracoderms - armoured, jawless fish that inhabited the oceans during the Palaeozoic era. This has been revealed in a study led by researchers of the University of Valencia analysing how these primitive vertebrates used their skeletons to improve their stability and hydrodynamic performance.
Ostracoderms have traditionally been considered clumsy creatures, mainly due to the presence of heavy bony shells covering their heads and the absence of paired fins, equivalent to the arms and legs of later vertebrates. However, the current study published in Paleobiology challenges this view. Using advanced virtual palaeontology techniques and fluid dynamics simulations, this group of palaeontologists has discovered that these bony shields, along with certain protrusions, functioned as hydrodynamic stabilisers, allowing them to glide through water with greater control and efficiency.

UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA NEW CATALYSTS FOR MORE EFFICIENT AND LESS ENERGY-INTENSIVE GREEN HYDROGEN PRODUCTION
A team led by the Institute of Molecular Science (ICMol) of the University of Valencia has developed a method for creating nickel- and iron-based catalysts that are more efficient and scalable for green hydrogen production through water electrolysis. This technology has been patented by the academic institution and licensed to Matteco - a spin-off of the University of Valencia - for industrial exploitation and technology transfer. The work has been published in Nature Communications.
The production of green hydrogen through electrolysis requires efficient and sustainable materials. A major challenge in this field is to improve the oxygen evolution reaction - a key step in the development of electrochemical devices such as electrolysers and fuel cells - without relying on costly or difficult-to-scale materials, i.e., materials that are hard to produce abundantly for large-scale use.
In the study now published in Nature Communications, a team from the Institute of Molecular Science of the University of Valencia describes a new method for the simple and scalable fabrication of an advanced catalyst based on nickel-iron layered double hydroxides (NiFe-LDHs). Nickel and iron are two naturally abundant and non-critical elements, meaning that their use is viable, sustainable and safe for industrial application.
The new catalyst overcomes the limitations that previous nickel-iron compounds faced in terms of commercial-scale application. "We have succeeded in synthesising, in a straightforward and scalable manner, a type of material that is highly efficient for producing hydrogen with less energy. This will help make technologies like electrolysis more accessible and competitive", says Gonzalo Abellan, researcher at ICMol and principal investigator of the project.

NEWS IN THE OPERATION OF WAITING LISTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA FOR THE 2025 ACADEMIC YEAR
The University of Valencia, like the five Valencian public universities, has important changes in the process of managing waiting lists for access to its university degrees that affect all students who have not obtained a place in their first option after pre-enrolment. The main novelty is that the waiting lists will be managed directly by the Generalitat Valenciana.
The University of Valencia publishes today the admission results to the university degrees it offers. Once these results are known, the student who has not been admitted to the first option of the degree requested will be assigned a waiting list order number. However, it must be taken into account that if the student has been admitted in the second or successive options, in order not to lose the assigned place, he/she must formalise the enrolment within the assigned deadlines otherwise it will be understood that the place is renounced.
Centralisation and regional coordination
As a main novelty, from this academic year all waiting list calls will be centralized in the Generalitat Valenciana (GVA) and will be common to the five public universities of the Valencian Community. This measure seeks to streamline and unify the procedure, avoiding duplication and improving transparency.
Mandatory confirmation of permanence
Students who wish to continue on the waiting lists must confirm their interest only once in the period between Saturday 12 July and Wednesday 16 July 2025, ending at 2 p.m. on the latter day. If this confirmation is not made through the university pre-enrolment platform, the system will automatically exclude the applicant from the lists, thus losing the possibility of being admitted to the desired degrees.

DALMATIAN, THE STORY OF THE SEA TURTLE THAT HAS NESTED ON THE COASTS OF CATALONIA AND VALENCIA
This female loggerhead turtle, equipped with a transmitter that allows her movements in the western Mediterranean to be followed via satellite, laid two eggs on the coast in an interval of thirteen days.
Dalmatian is the name of a female loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) that has laid eggs twice in less than two weeks on the beaches of the peninsular Mediterranean, specifically in Catalonia and the Valencian Community. This nesting episode is an exceptional event that reinforces the importance of scientific monitoring and citizen involvement in the conservation of this endangered species that makes long migrations in areas such as the western Mediterranean.
The first egg laying of the season took place on June 25 on the beach of Sant Feliu de Guixols (Girona), a location where Dalmata laid 101 eggs. The second, with 129 eggs, occurred on the night of July 8 on the beach of Puig (Valencia). In a context of biodiversity protection, identifying several nests of the same female during a single season allows us to advance in the study of the process of colonization of new nesting areas in the western Mediterranean by this species.
Dalmatian is part of the scientific monitoring of the species C. caretta that is developed through interdisciplinary projects such as LIFE TURTLENEST and InGeNi-Caretta, initiatives that have the participation of the University of Valencia, the University of Barcelona, the Biodiversity Research Institute of the UB (IRBio), the CT BETA of the University of Vic - Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC), the Polytechnic University of Valencia and the DoNana Biological Station (EBD-CSIC), in collaboration with marine fauna recovery centres and with the active support of citizens.

UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA LA NAU HOSTS A DEBATE ON THE RISKS OF DISINFORMATION IN DEMOCRACIES
The La Nau Cultural Center of the UV will host this Tuesday, July 15, at 7 p.m., a debate on the risks that misinformation poses to democratic societies. The event is held on the occasion of the publication of the book 'In the hands of disinformation. Post-truth, post-journalism, post-democracy' (Ed. Catarata, 2025), by Professor Pepe Reig.
The activity, which will take place in the Matilde Salvador Room, closes the course of the Lluis Vives European School of Thought of the University of Valencia, a space dedicated to the analysis of the great contemporary challenges.
The debate will be attended by Sergi Pitarch, director of eldiario.es in the Valencian Community; Ana Noguera, member of the Valencian Council of Culture; Enrique Herreras, professor of Ethics and Political Philosophy at the UV, and the author himself. The presentation will be given by Fernando Flores, professor of Constitutional Law and director of the Institute of Human Rights of the University of Valencia.
Pepe Reig's work sends a clear warning: lies have become an omnipresent element in the public space, and the normalization of post-truth endangers the very foundations of democracy. The threat of the far right, the growth of pseudo-journalism and the constant attack of populism on democratic institutions are three dimensions that, according to the author, must be analysed together. Reig argues that only an informed and critical citizenry can deal with this drift. And it raises a disturbing question: how much truth can dictatorships bear, and how much lies can democracies bear?

UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA A STUDY SHOWS THE IMPACT OF ADVERSE EXPERIENCES IN THE EARLY STAGES OF LIFE ON THE VOLUME OF THE THALAMUS IN PATIENTS WITH A FIRST PSYCHOTIC EPISODE
The research of the University of Valencia, INCLIVA and CIBER shows that these experiences can contribute to the appearance of serious psychiatric disorders such as psychosis and schizophrenia. The results of the research have been published in Progress in Neuropsychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry
The research has been led by Juan Nacher, professor of Cell Biology and researcher at the University Institute for Research in Biotechnology and Biomedicine (BIOTECMED) of the University of Valencia, head of the group of the Mental Health Networking Biomedical Research Center (CIBERSAM) and member of the Research Group in Psychiatry and Neurodegenerative Diseases of INCLIVA.
The research findings show that adverse experiences during childhood and adolescence, such as abuse, abandonment, or bullying, may be contributing factors to the onset of severe psychiatric disorders such as psychosis and schizophrenia. The work has been developed by a multidisciplinary team that includes professionals from psychiatry, neurobiology, genetics, neuroimaging and psychology. The results obtained are very relevant to understand how early adverse experiences influence brain development and can lead to alterations in neural circuits that can potentially lead to alterations in behavior and cognition.
The analysis of patients with psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia has shown that there are alterations in the structure of different brain regions, including the thalamus. This is a deep region of the brain made up of several nuclei with specific connections that participate in the processing of information that arrives through the senses, but which is also involved in phenomena such as consciousness or sleep regulation, among others. The thalamus has just developed during childhood and adolescence and, therefore, is especially susceptible to changes that occur during this time of life. Adversity in childhood could affect their development and potentially contribute to psychosis.

EVENTS CALENDAR: UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA THE ALTERNATIVE LOOK AT THE BODY AND THE LANDSCAPE, EXHIBITION PROPOSALS FROM THE CULTURAL AGENDA OF THE 42ND SUMMER UNIVERSITY OF GANDIA
The Summer University of Gandia is reflection, critical thinking and debate, but also culture and analytical gaze through art. This is what the two exhibition projects that can be visited in Gandia on the occasion of this 42nd edition propose. With 'The seven veils of Inma Coll' and 'Landscape and climate change. The transformation of the gaze', by Calo Carratala, the Summer University completes its cultural programme open to the public.
Two exhibitions that, from different aspects - that of questioning ageism and that of raising awareness about the protection of the environment and the territory - connect and link with this year's motto, 'Vulnerability and resistance'.
The Seven Veils of Inma Coll can be visited until August 30 at the headquarters of the University of Valencia in Gandia, in the Tossal room. Organized jointly by the Office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Society and the City Council of Gandia, in collaboration with Caixa Popular, this artistic and vital proposal, of great expressive intensity, reflects on ageism and the forms of invisibility of mature women in contemporary society.
Through painting, textile art, installation and video art, the Valencian Inma Coll, a multidisciplinary artist and one of the most genuine voices of current Spanish expressionism, symbolically strips one by one the seven veils that hide marginal realities such as midorexia, the stigma of aging, the crisis of productivity or the silence about mental health in a very personal and intimate way of addressing the world and feeling oneself.
Selected in the III edition of the Activa Cultura programme of the University of Valencia and curated by Alejandro Villar, this exhibition is also a vindication of the museum as a space for thought and transformation.

UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO CANADIAN QUANTUM TALENT HELPS DRIVE GLOBAL RESEARCH TO CERTIFY QUANTUM COMMUNICATIONS
A new study from researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo marks an important step in certifying Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) devices, crucial to enabling secure quantum communication technology.
QKD allows users to share keys that are secure and unknown to any potential eavesdropper. These keys can be used to secure critical communications. Part of what makes it powerful is that it uses the properties of quantum mechanics - like superposition and entanglement - to provide security against eavesdropping. An attempted attack can disturb those quantum states, alerting users to the presence of a malicious attacking party.
But the guarantee of security is only as good as the mathematical proof that establishes it. Just as medical devices need to be approved before they can be used, mathematical proofs for QKD also need to be verified through careful, third-party evaluation of the underlying mathematics.

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM: REGENTS APPROVE UWS TUITION INCREASES FOR 2025-26 (NEWS SUMMARY)
The Board of Regents for the Universities of Wisconsin today unanimously approved a tuition increase of up to 5 percent for the 2025-26 academic year.
Tuition will increase by 4 percent at all universities, with an optional 1 percent additional for a maximum of 5 percent (an average $382 increase). All universities except UW-Green Bay plan to adopt the additional 1 percent. As part of the proposal, UW-River Falls further sought an additional increase as part of an ongoing effort to support student success initiatives, which brings its resident undergraduate increase to 5.8 percent.
"After a decade of a tuition freeze and lagging state aid, we believe we have struck a balance for students and families with this proposal and the recent state investments in the UWs as part of the 2025-27 biennial budget," said UWs President Jay Rothman.
The Regents' vote on the tuition proposal came after lawmakers and Gov. Tony Evers reached agreement on a new state budget for the next two years starting July 1. Under the budget, the UWs would receive a funding increase of about $256 million, much of which is dedicated to specific initiatives. State funding represents about one-fifth of the UWs' total revenues.
Compared to UW comprehensive peers, resident undergraduate tuition increased just 7.7% during the 10-year period from 2015 to 2025 - well below neighboring states, which ranged from increases of 21.7% to 28.8% during the same period.
Overall, the total proposed cost of attendance for resident undergraduates will increase an average of 3.8 percent (or $682) when segregated fees and room and board costs are considered. The Regents approved segregated fees in April.
Universities would increase nonresident undergraduate tuition by either the same percentage or same dollar amount as resident undergraduate tuition, under the approved proposal.

UNIVERSITIES OF WISCONSIN IS PREFERRED NAME FOR STATES 13 PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES
The Universities of Wisconsin remind the public and the news media of its name change that best describes the state's constellation of 13 public universities. While its legal name is "University of Wisconsin System," it is doing business as "Universities of Wisconsin" similar to many public-facing organizations. "University of Wisconsin (UW) System" should be for use in legal documentation only.
President Jay Rothman announced the name change and rebrand in October 2023 to place the emphasis in the name on the universities and their students, faculty, and staff, not the administrative structure. The name change seeks to increase general awareness of public higher education and its value in Wisconsin and to address the need for greater public understanding of how our individual universities are part of a collective network and brand.
It further seeks to make clear that the Universities of Wisconsin are not an entity within UW-Madison, the UWs' flagship university. This was a common misperception.

Changes reflect staff feedback, aim to reduce costs, streamline operations and position University for long-term success
The University of Wollongong today released its Revised Change Proposal for UOW Operations, beginning the next stage of workplace change consultation after extensive feedback on the Draft Change Proposal released in March.
"I am deeply grateful for the thoughtful feedback and engagement we've received across our University community. This is a difficult process, but the feedback from staff has helped shape a proposal that responds to current challenges while positioning us for sustainable growth and impact," Vice-Chancellor and President Professor G.Q. Max Lu said.
The Revised Change Proposal represents a substantial evolution from the earlier proposal, shaped by more than 2,600 feedback submissions that were reviewed and considered, and staff workshops that were attended by over 700 people.
The proposal responds to UOW's need to reduce recurrent costs by about $30 million to ensure long-term sustainability and to improve the effectiveness of services and operations. It projects a reduction of 100-124 full time equivalent positions, generating annual savings of between $17-22 million (compared to 155-185 FTE and $22-26 million annually in the earlier proposal). The University will aim to meet the remaining savings targets through reductions in non-salary spending.
These figures may change as consultations continue, including in the Research portfolio. A Revised Change Proposal for Research services will be released separately on 4 August.

UNIVERSITY OF WOLLONGONG: WHERE DO GIANT VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS COME FROM? NEW STUDY FINDS MISSING LINK TO BLOBS DEEP WITHIN EARTH
Pillars of hot rock connect moving BLOBS in the deep Earth to giant volcanic eruptions at its surface
Volcanic eruptions at Earth's surface have significant consequences. Smaller ones can scare tourists on Mount Etna or disrupt air traffic.
Giant, large-scale eruptions can have more serious impacts. One such event contributed to the demise of the dinosaurs 66 million years ago. Giant volcanoes also triggered events that led to the largest mass dying on Earth, the Permian-Triassic extinction 252 million years ago).
But what fuels a giant eruption, and how does it make its way to the surface from deep within the planet?
In a new study published in Communications Earth and Environment, we show that columns of hot rock, which rise some 3,000 kilometres through Earth's mantle and cause giant eruptions, are connected to continent-sized source regions we call BLOBS.
Hidden blobs within Earth BLOBS are hot regions at the bottom of Earth's mantle (between about 2,000km and 3,000km in depth) which might be composed of different material compared with the surrounding mantle rocks.
Scientists have long known about these two hot regions under the Pacific Ocean and Africa. Geologist David Evans from Yale University suggested the acronym BLOBS, which stands for Big LOwer-mantle Basal Structures.
These BLOBS have possibly existed for hundreds of millions of years. It is unclear whether they're stationary or if they move around as part of mantle motion (called convection).

UNIVERSITY OF ZURICH: MAPPING DISEASE ACROSS THE GLOBE
Sometimes a misunderstanding contains a kernel of truth. When Thomas Van Boeckel talks about what he does for a living, he calls his field spatial epidemiology. This sometimes raises the question: what's this epidemiology in space all about? Contrary to what some assume, Van Boeckel's work has nothing to do with ailing astronauts. In this his research, "spatial" refers to the geographical aspect of epidemiology. His field of expertise is also known as health geography. Van Boeckel is interested in how diseases differ in humans and animals around the world - and how they are related.
This is one of the key questions posed by One Health. The disciplines of medicine, veterinary medicine and environmental science collaborate on this still-nascent approach, because human, animal and environmental health are all closely linked. Many infectious diseases that occur in humans have a zoological origin - take, for example, the current outbreak of bird flu, which has already been transmitted to farm workers via cows in the US.

UNIVERSITY OF THE WEST OF SCOTLAND UWS GRADUATE'S DREAM TO INSPIRE OTHERS THROUGH TEACHING
A University of the West of Scotland (UWS) student who once struggled to find his place in education is now graduating with first-class honours and plans to return to UWS to pursue a PhD and inspire others as a lecturer.
Brian Boyd, who completed a BA (Hons) in Business and Marketing, described his school years as "terrible" and only went to avoid getting into trouble. Misunderstood and misplaced in additional support classes despite his academic potential, he left school with low confidence and a belief that higher education wasn't for him.
But everything changed soon after arriving at UWS: "In my first year, I felt I didn't fit in, I hated it and I nearly dropped out".
"I couldn't make sense of the business language, and I struggled to keep up. But when a lecturer noticed I was falling behind and referred me to the disability team, everything started to make sense."
Following the referral, Brian was diagnosed with dyslexia and later combined type ADHD. He received support from the University's wellbeing and disability services and was awarded a UWS West Scholarship, which he used to help him fund a private ADHD diagnosis. This marked both a turning point in his academic journey and his confidence:

A pair of brothers are celebrating their graduation - after both graduating from the same course.
Balint and Peter Kaszap-Nagy both graduated from the BSc (Hons) Web and Mobile Development course at University of the West of Scotland with a first class degree.
Balint, 32, said, "We decided to enrol on the same course because both of us have always been interested in programming and technology, so choosing this course felt like a natural fit. It also gave us an opportunity to develop skills that we knew would be valuable for building something together in the future."
The brothers are originally from Hungary but have lived in Scotland for the past nine years. They found studying at the same time made their university experience more enjoyable.
Peter, 36, said, "Studying at the same time was actually really motivating and made the whole experience less isolating. We spent a lot of time studying side by side, but we always tackled our coursework independently. University life was very much a shared journey."
Despite both attaining first class degrees, the brothers have set their sights even higher as they prepare to begin their postgraduate studies.

Wits-developed SmartSpot has become an innovative tool in TB testing, making diagnostics safer, faster, and more accessible.
In a small yet highly innovative laboratory in Braamfontein, Professor Bavesh Kana and his team are quietly revolutionising the global response to tuberculosis (TB). As Head of the Centre of Excellence for Biomedical TB Research, Kana leads a research group that developed SmartSpot, a diagnostic innovation that has enhanced TB testing in South Africa and around the world.
"The challenge was not only diagnosing TB," says Kana. "It was about doing it safely, quickly, and reliably, without putting healthcare workers at risk."
In 2010, the National Department of Health adopted molecular diagnostics to accelerate TB testing. However, laboratories faced a significant hurdle to validate diagnostic machines without using live TB bacteria, which present a serious infection risk.

BLACKROCK PENNSYLVANIA STRATEGIC MUNICIPAL TRUST SABINE FUCHS' INAUGURAL LECTURE: 'FOCUS ON THE CORE, WE HAVE NO TIME TO WASTE'
Sabine Fuchs, who has been Professor of Metabolic Diseases and Innovative Therapies for a year, gave her inaugural lecture on 11 July. The lecture, entitled "To the core", is a plea to invest now in innovation and research to cure serious metabolic diseases and to implement these treatments in a responsible manner so that they become accessible to as many patients as possible.
Sabine begins her argument by noting that, thanks to improved diagnostics, more and more metabolic diseases are being identified. But treatments are lagging behind. And that is serious, because metabolic diseases are the most deadly among children. New treatments must be developed quickly, because children can suffer damage every day. That damage is often preventable, but rarely reversible. Sabine: "That's why we need to treat early, before irreparable damage occurs. It takes too long to develop a treatment for each of these rare diseases. That's why I think we need to develop a more general strategy that we can then personalise for all those different metabolic patients who cannot yet be treated adequately."

According to researchers, neurologists use electrical brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) to help patients with Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injuries when drugs and other rehabilitative interventions are not efficient.

On a sweltering day in June, a group of high school students gathered around their laptops in VCU's STEM Building. Viola Baskerville, a genealogist, lawyer and retired public servant, moved through the group, helping the students search for information about their families' pasts.
"Your journey in genealogy is like solving a puzzle," said Baskerville, the president of the Afro-American Historical and Genealogical Society's greater Richmond chapter, as she addressed the class. "So, you're not going to find all the pieces this week. You're not going to find all the pieces this month."

While she already knew much of her family history, including that one of her great-grandfathers was born in 1832, she was still discovering things. Gilbert had just found out that her fourth-great-grandfather was in the United States Colored Troops during the Civil War.
The high school students came to Virginia Commonwealth University to participate in the Gabriel Summer Institute, a weeklong program from the Department of African American Studies.

"A lot of them didn't know a lot about their bodies and didn't always have someone they could confide in," Holston, now in Virginia Commonwealth University's OB-GYN residency program, said. "It was a unique opportunity to participate in the intimate parts of their lives and a privilege to be able to chat and be that person for them."
That first year of Holston's clinical rotations, 2022, was also the year Philadelphia recorded over 1,400 opioid overdose deaths, the highest number to date. Black Philadelphians were hit especially hard, with a 20% increase in unintentional overdose deaths, the highest of any demographic.
The experience inspired Holston to combine her interests and complete her residency training at an institution that treated OB-GYN patients with substance use disorder. When the Hampton, Virginia native learned of OB MOTIVATE, VCU Health's integrated OB-GYN and addiction treatment clinic, she knew it was the right fit. Now, Holston is one of a growing number of trainees who were drawn to the VCU School of Medicine for the opportunity to provide care for this specific demographic.

Wake Forest University's Educating Character Initiative (ECI) will expand its support for character education at colleges and universities across the country with more than $30 million in new funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.
The ECI has built a community of educators from more than 400 higher education institutions engaged in developing and implementing ideas for integrating character education on their campuses. The new funding will add $10 million to the Institutional Impact grants awarded by the ECI this year and provide $20 million to fund and support another round of grants to institutions in 2026.
"This new grant will enable us to continue to build upon the work of colleges and universities that are striving to expand the role of character education at their own institutions," said Jennifer Rothschild, the director of the ECI.
The next round of Institutional Impact grants will help expand a nationwide movement to cultivate character in higher education, built upon the work of the Program for Leadership and Character, of which the ECI is a part. Since its founding in 2017, the Program has focused on transforming the lives of students by creating a campus-wide culture that lives out Wake Forest's motto: Pro Humanitate. As the Program has grown in size, scope, and impact, it has sought to support other institutions as they developed and strengthened their own character education initiatives. Since it was launched in 2023, the ECI has distributed $35 million in grants to institutions.

WESTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY: IN MEMORIAM: SUSAN MANCUSO
Susan Mancuso, former chair of Woodring's Department of Educational Leadership and former director of Western's Student Affairs Administration graduate program, passed away after a courageous battle with Alzheimer's Disease on April 27 at age 76.
Employed with Western from 1993 to 2011, Susan made an enormous impact on the lives of countless students, colleagues, and future administrators in higher education.
Susan was born in Los Angeles, California and graduated from Morningside High School in Inglewood where she met her future husband, Jim. After attaining her bachelor's degree in Anthropology from UCLA, Susan and Jim moved to Bellingham in 1971 as Susan enrolled at WWU in the master's-degree program in Sociology. Susan then began a long career in higher education, serving as faculty at Whatcom Community College for many years, eventually holding the role of Dean of Students, and later, the Chief Student Affairs Officer (1985 - 1995). Along the way, in the 1980s, Susan completed her Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) at the University of Washington. Her dissertation topic of self-directedness, age, and nontraditional higher education prepared her well for her roles within WWU's Woodring College of Education.

WWU STUDENTS MEET AT CROSSROADS OF THEATRE AND SCIENCE WITH NEW STAGING OF 'AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE'
This spring, the Theatre Department staged Henrik Ibsen's "An Enemy of the People," a play originally written in 1882 but with issues that still feel contemporary.
Ibsen's play is about a doctor who discovers that the town's newly constructed spa, a major tourist destination that serves as the town's main economic force, has baths that have been contaminated by toxic runoff from a nearby tannery. The doctor attempts to warn the town about his scientific findings and the serious threat to human health, and proposes what he sees as a simple solution. Instead, he unintentionally releases a political firestorm that is played out through the press.
At its heart, the play is about how stakeholders in a public arena come to an agreement - or don't - over issues that divide a community.
But this isn't a theater review; it's a look at how art can be a powerful tool to communicate science, and how current events can inspire artists. A scene from An Enemy of the People In "An Enemy of the People," Dr. Tomas Stockmann initially receives the support of his family and friends, but once they realize the economic and social impacts of his cleanup proposal, their support wavers. Photo by Madison Joy LeFever.
While the theater students were rehearsing Ibsen's play, on another part of campus, Science and Management of Contaminated Sites (SMoCS) - a combination of Environmental Sciences students and policy and journalism-focused students from Environmental Studies - were learning about contaminated site cleanup processes, regulatory management, and the communication of science.

WILLIAM MARSH RICE UNIVERSITY: THICK ELECTRODES' CHEMISTRY MATTERS MORE THAN STRUCTURE FOR BATTERY PERFORMANCE
Thicker battery electrodes pack in more active materials, promising higher energy density. However, when it comes to lithium-ion battery performance, electrode materials' thermodynamic properties matter more than their structural design. researcher Zeyuan Li, a Rice doctoral alum, is the first author on a study published in Advanced Materials. (Photo by Jorge Vidal/Rice University)
A team of Rice University researchers led by materials scientist Ming Tang showed that even if the materials used in thick battery electrodes have nearly identical structures, their internal chemistry impacts energy flow ⎯ and, hence, performance ⎯ differently. This finding goes against conventional wisdom in the field, which holds that creating pore channels in the electrode material via different patterning techniques could mitigate poor reaction uniformity.

A new coating for glass developed by Rice University researchers and collaborators could help reduce energy bills, especially during the cold season, by preventing heat-loss from leaky windows. The material ⎯ a transparent film made by weaving carbon into the atomic lattice of boron nitride ⎯ forms a thin, tough layer that reflects heat, resists scratches and shrugs off moisture, UV light and temperature swings. researcher Abhijit Biswas, a research scientist at Rice University, is the first author on a study published in Advanced Materials.

The researchers simulated how the material would behave in an actual-sized building in cities with cold winters like New York, Beijing and Calgary, showing it improved energy savings by 2.9% compared to existing alternatives. With over 4 billion square feet of new windows installed annually in the U.S. alone, the savings can add up.
