Ateneo de Manila University researchers have co-designed comics with Filipino parents to help families recognize, address, and prevent school bullying.

Researchers at the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) benchmarked language models on their ability to recommend experts in academia. The models tend to favor white, male, senior and U.S.-based scholars, while improving factual accuracy can come at the expense of social representation. The findings are based on a trilogy of studies, and feed into the interactive visualization “Whose name comes up?”

In the weeks following the start of the kindergarten and school year, the number of respiratory infections among children increases significantly. Although many people suspect that this is due to a weakened immune system, the main factors are the return to group settings, indoor environments, changes in daily routines, and the easier and faster spread of viruses. However, adequate sleep, hand hygiene, regular ventilation, and vaccinations can go a long way toward prevention. “While children spend more time outdoors in smaller groups during vacation and are less frequently in crowded, enclosed spaces, the start of kindergarten and school results in a sharp rise in the number of close contacts, which facilitates the spread of respiratory viruses,” says Dr. Laura Kossuth, a specialist at Semmelweis University’s Pediatric Center.

Binghamton University is celebrating the most successful fundraising year in its 80-year history, with a record-breaking $101.6 million raised during the 2026 fiscal year (FY26).

Two professors in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville are helping NVIDIA integrate atmospheric composition into its Earth-2 AI foundation model ecosystem to establish an AI framework for a combined weather-air quality prediction.

UIC researchers have identified two therapeutic targets for pulmonary arterial hypertension, an as-yet incurable disease that can be caused by a parasite laying eggs in the abdomen. The targets represent an opportunity to diagnose, prevent and treat the life-threatening condition.

Scientists from the University of Regina used neutron imaging at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to examine fossilized bones from dinosaurs, including a broken rib from Scotty, the largest Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton discovered. Neutron imaging allowed researchers to nondestructively examine the rib and corroborate earlier X-ray findings of a rare network of mineralized blood vessels preserved as the injury was healing. Combined with X-ray techniques, the neutron data are helping scientists investigate ancient injuries, healing and soft tissue preservation in fossils.
