Recruiting retired specialists back into part-time practice via telemedicine
Richard J. Santen, MD, Emeritus Professor of Medicine at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia, U.S., looks at how to recruit retired specialists to practice part-time via telemedicine. Patients living in rural, underserved areas in the United States (U.S.) lack access to specialists for care of complicated medical problems. Specialists generally practice in cities and choose not to live in rural areas based on several financial, geographical, and social reasons. A potential solution to this problem involves convincing retired specialists to go back into practice part-time and use telemedicine to fill the need in these rural, underserved areas.

Joint research for tomorrow’s circular plastic systems
Filip Johnsson and Henrik Thunman from Chalmers University of Technology perform collaborative research for developing circular plastics systems that can contribute to long-term sustainable use of plastics, while simultaneously reduce the presence of plastics in nature. The presence of large amounts of plastic in the world’s oceans is a growing problem, and current collection and recycling systems are inadequate. Yet society is heavily reliant on plastics, not least in the food industry, where plastics have valuable abilities to protect food, contribute to long shelf life, and reduce food waste. Chalmers University of Technology, together with Swedish industry, performs joint research for tomorrow’s circular plastic systems.

When common recommendations for cultivating in cold soils inadvertently thaw permafrost
Melissa Ward Jones, details when common recommendations for cultivating in cold soils inadvertently thaw permafrost, starting with the challenges of cultivating at high latitudes. Cultivating crops within cold soils at high latitudes can be challenging. The growing season is short, with the risk of frosts at each seasonal margin, and overall, both air and soil temperatures limit crop options that can be grown. A common recommendation in cultivating cold soils is the use of seasonal extension techniques, such as greenhouses, high tunnels, low tunnels and various mulches (such as plastic and biodegradable like straw and compost) to artificially heat the soil, and depending on the technique used, the air temperature as well (Stevenson et al., 2014).

How the dark genome enlightens the molecular mechanisms of diseases
In this article, Antoinette van Ouwerkerk and Salvatore Spicuglia from INSERM highlight the significance of regulatory variants within the non-coding genome – often referred to as the ‘dark genome’ – in influencing gene expression and disease. The major genetic cause of human disease has historically been thought to be mutations within coding genes. However, there has been a shift in perspective over recent years, with more attention now being paid to the role of the non-coding regions in the genome. Intense research in this area has revealed that the non-coding genome contributes to gene-regulatory networks that serve to control where and when sets of genes are expressed. In turn, dysregulation of gene expression due to changes or alterations in the non-coding genome drastically impacts the aetiology of different diseases.

Promoting risky play: Insights from the Outside Play Lab
Mariana Brussoni, founder of the Outside Play Lab at The University of British Columbia, is a pioneer in promoting the benefits of risky play for children. Her research emphasizes the importance of allowing children to engage in outdoor activities that involve a certain level of risk, arguing that this type of play is crucial for their overall development. In this exclusive interview, Mariana Brussoni from the Outside Play Lab shares her insights on risky play and childhood development. Mariana Brussoni shared her journey from being a developmental psychologist to focusing on injury prevention. Her transition was driven by the need to address children’s safety comprehensively. She explained, “In public health and injury prevention, it’s very typical that they use a very siloed approach thinking only about preventing injuries. Whereas as a developmental psychologist, I think about the child as a whole and what they need to thrive.” The Outside Play Lab seeks to strike a balance between safety and the developmental needs of children, promoting a holistic approach to injury prevention.

Global centre for climate change impacts on transboundary waters
Dr. Gail Krantzberg and Dr. Andrew Gronewold, unpack the priorities of the Global Centre for Climate Change Impacts on Transboundary Waters. Climate change threatens water resources across North America and worldwide. It intensifies floods and droughts, worsens water quality, exacerbates shoreline erosion, and damages homes and other infrastructure. Communities must learn to adapt to these worsening extremes. However, the tools and knowledge for adaptation are often non-existent, fragmented across jurisdictional boundaries, or simply too difficult to access and use.

How do we prepare our youth for a world of big data?
Nancy Butler Songer, Associate Provost of STEM Education at the University of Utah, considers the importance of developing primary and secondary school programs in STEM fields that support students in developing the competencies with big data. We all know something about Big Data. This term describes massive volumes of structured and unstructured data that influence nearly every decision in our lives. A recent report by the United States National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine stated, ‘We live in a world where nearly every interaction—both personal and professional—is mediated through data’. (1) As dedicated scientists and educators, it is our crucial responsibility to develop and evaluate primary and secondary school programs in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) that can identify and guide students in developing the competencies with data that students need to navigate the Big Data world of the present and future. But what are these competencies?

AI-empowered neural processing for intelligent human-machine interface and biomedical devices
Jie Gu, Associate Professor from Northwestern University, examines AI-empowered neural processing for intelligent human-machine interface and biomedical devices. Most conventional wearable devices rely on motion detection or image classifications to capture users’ activities. However, they lack the ability to decode neural signals generated by the human body. Neural signals, such as EEG, ECG, and EMG, offer a rich amount of information on a person’s physiological and psychological activities. Recognition and use of such signals present many new opportunities for applications in medical and daily commercial usage. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied to neural signal processing, leading to a new generation of intelligent human-machine interfaces and biomedical devices.

Flipons: The discovery of Z-DNA and soft-wired genomes
Alan Herbert, Founder and President of InsideOutBio, discusses alternative DNA conformations and understanding of their biological functions. One of the great things about science is that every time you think you really understand things and can’t imagine how they could work differently, life surprises you. The biggest mistake you can make is believing that nature works according to your best design. Take physics, for example – first, there were the four humors, then atoms, then protons and electrons, then even more particles, and then quarks – who knows what’s next? Similarly, biology is undergoing its own progression, and we are finding that there is more to life than just Watson and Crick’s DNA.

Cigarette smoking focus: A modeling approach for estimating the impact of health programs
Theodore R. Holford from Yale University charts a modeling approach for estimating the impact of health programs in this cigarette smoking research focus. Cigarette smoking is one of the most harmful causes of increasing illness risk and shortening life. Its effect was not expected initially, but the recognition of a growing epidemic in lung cancer became apparent in the middle of the twentieth century, stimulating a research effort to find the cause of an alarming trend. This work demonstrated the strong association between smoking and lung cancer. Still, as work continued, it became clear that lung cancer was but the first of a long list of other diseases affecting the lungs, the heart, and other organs.

Learning from the COVID-19 Pandemic: Next-generation universal vaccines and immunotherapeutic research
With the COVID-19 pandemic behind us, we need to focus on universal vaccines and/or immunotherapeutic strategies and technologies to tackle ongoing endemic infections with SARS-CoV2, influenza, and RSV and prepare for any future pandemics, says Dr Babita Agrawal. In the 21st century, we have witnessed the emergence of respiratory infections with pandemic potential, like corona and influenza viruses, on multiple occasions. Due to the global dissemination of one such coronavirus, SARS-CoV2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus type-2), the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a worldwide pandemic in March 2020. The global public health emergency was declared over in May 2023 by the WHO, but infections with variants of SARS-CoV2 continue to evolve and cause infections worldwide. (1) Besides public health measures, developing, approving, and implementing vaccines against SARS-CoV2 have helped mitigate and end the pandemic. However, the existing vaccines against SARS-CoV2 are not preventive, do not induce mucosal immunity, induce only short-term protection and are ineffective against emerging variants, thereby requiring regular updated boosters.

An organizing protocol for society’s approach at responding to climate change
Huffington Foundation Professor of Economics and Environmental Studies, Emeritus Gary Yohe argues that adopting an iterative risk management approach is the most effective way when responding to climate change uncertainties. The issue at hand is easily expressed: How might society effectively organize its thinking as it ponders how to respond to climate change impacts and their consequences in the face of enormous uncertainty? That is, what thought protocol would be best, not only because it would provide the ‘30,000-foot’ perspective to inform response decisions but also because it would inform researchers and implementers who work ‘in the weeds’ of project-specific details on how to fit their work into the broader national and global strategies for action.

The role of stem cell-derived tissues in novel treatments for cardiac ailments
Curbs on animal testing mean human tissues derived from induced pluripotent stem cells offer a promising platform in discovering novel treatments for cardiac ailments. In the realm of research and development in novel treatments for cardiac ailments, the use of animal models, such as mice, presents inherent limitations due to physiological discrepancies between species, specifically between humans and experimental animals. For instance, the heart rate in mice can surpass 500 beats per minute, a rate considerably faster than that observed in humans.
