Demand for cancer genetic testing is on the rise, but there's not enough genetic counselors to guide patients through the process. Researchers say chatbots could be the answer.
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) plays a crucial role in how the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) sets vaccination schedules for children and adults. This work was particularly critical during the COVID-19 pandemic with the remarkable advancement of vaccines amid growing public distrust of those vaccine recommendations. To highlight the ACIP’s work during this challenging time, committee members are sharing their insights and experiences with a focus on pediatrics.
Scientists from Jefferson Lab, Old Dominion University and the University of Virginia recently conducted a study that compares deep learning models of street-scale flooding in the City of Norfolk with previous machine learning and physics-based simulations.
Predators not native to Madagascar, such as feral dogs and cats, may pose a serious threat to lemur species—many of which are already facing extinction on this African island.
Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign's Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology found that older adults learned a memory task best after practicing multiple related tasks, suggesting that diverse cognitive training supports mental sharpness as we age.

Scientists report that underwater noise pollution — from both large and small vessels — forces northern and southern resident orcas to expend more time and energy hunting for fish. The din also lowers the overall success of their hunting efforts. Noise from ships likely has an outsized impact on southern resident orca pods, which spend more time in areas with high ship traffic.
Young athletes face an array of nutritional risks that could hamper their performance, recovery from injury, and overall wellness, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center and Scottish Rite for Children found.
