Researchers from the University of Victoria-led Accelerating Community Energy Transformation (ACET) initiative explain why military and conflict-related emissions are not being counted and how this blind spot undermines climate action. 

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, can occur at any age. Its prevalence in people in early to mid-adulthood has been rising globally. Bianca Bandarra, M.B.B.S., a general practitioner and executive health physician at Mayo Clinic Healthcare in London, describes lifestyle factors that can influence risk and explains why treating high blood pressure early matters.

 The American Thoracic Society is excited to introduce ATS NOW, an innovative on-demand video learning platform designed to bring International Conference highlights and ATS educational content directly to users—anytime, anywhere.

In a breakthrough poised to reshape cancer treatment, Houston Methodist has developed the first personalized mRNA cancer vaccine designed to prevent recurrence of osteosarcoma, a rare and aggressive type of bone cancer.

AI is changing climate science — not just by improving forecasts, but by helping researchers understand why climate patterns happen. A researcher at the University of Virginia developed explainable AI models that can predict U.S. winter precipitation months in advance while revealing the climate mechanisms driving those forecasts. The study found the southern United States is significantly more predictable than northern regions and identified El Niño as the dominant source of seasonal forecasting skill. The work demonstrates how AI can move beyond prediction to become a tool for scientific discovery with applications for drought preparedness, water resource management, wildfire planning, and climate resilience.

Compiled by researchers at the National Transportation Research Center at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), the annual guide highlights new vehicle fuel economy and explains how driving habits and vehicle maintenance impact mileage and overall costs.
