A grant from the American Cancer Society will allow researchers to develop a comprehensive picture of the factors that may contribute to increased cancer risk in some neighborhoods.

A study involving the Department of Physics and the Center for Theoretical and Computational Physics at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon was recently published in Nature Physics. The discovery could have an impact in various fields, with applications in areas from healthcare—by improving the understanding of oncological diseases—to robotics, enabling more precise robot navigation.

A recent study in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior, published by Elsevier, accentuates the value of integrating Indigenous knowledge and community perspectives into health interventions. The research addresses challenges in defining healthy eating in a culturally specific context. The study emphasizes the importance of involving local voices to develop sustainable health solutions rooted in community worldviews and values. By tailoring health education to the Osage community's specific cultural food values and context, this initiative aims to strengthen food sovereignty while promoting well-being.
