A new study led by researchers at Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute, with researchers from Boston University and Boston Medical Center, shows that a telehealth navigator program can significantly improve blood pressure control among Black patients with hypertension cared for at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs).

A new study shows that if data centers move a significant portion of their energy consumption to non-peak hours, it could help lower average energy costs in the U.S. The environmental impact of these changes, in terms of the type of energy consumed, would differ by region.

The first study to directly attribute Antarctic glacier retreat to climate change shows Pine Island Glacier was pushed significantly further by human driven warming.

As people continue to live longer and the survival rate of cancer diagnoses increases, researchers from VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center led a multi-decade analysis studying the rates of subsequent primary cancers (SPCs), which are new cancers unrelated to the original diagnosis. The study, which was recently published in PLOS Medicine, provides understanding for how these cancer risks change over time and across generations, helping guide future prevention and monitoring measures.

A team of Massey researchers used cancer registry data from over three million cancer survivors in the United States from 1975-2021 to study patterns of SPCs, examining age, calendar period and birth cohort effects on SPC risk.
