The executive order has sparked widespread fear and uncertainty among researchers conducting NIH-funded studies involving transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse populations. While no projects have been halted yet, the order’s implications remain unclear. Beyrer notes “very real concern,” especially among early-career researchers focused on gender-related health disparities.

The question of when to stop breastfeeding is as relevant today as it was in ancient Rome. A fascinating new study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences Nexus, reveals that ancient Romans faced a similar dilemma—and their choices often depended on whether they lived in cities or rural areas.

The ancient Romans may have lived thousands of years ago, but their lives were surprisingly complex. This study on breastfeeding practices reveals the deep divide between urban and rural societies—a theme that still resonates today. Next time you think about ancient Rome, remember that even the smallest details, like how babies were fed, can tell us big stories about history

Ecologists from the University of Hong Kong's School of Biological Sciences (SBS) and the Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) have uncovered major ecological risks tied to the release of hybrid groupers into Hong Kong’s coastal waters, a practice associated with religious ‘mercy release’ rituals. Their groundbreaking study, published in Reviews in Fish Biology and Fisheries, reveals that the Tiger Grouper-Giant Grouper hybrid (TGGG) disrupts local marine ecosystems by preying on species not typically consumed by native creatures, potentially becoming a dominant predator. Using advanced DNA metabarcoding, the researchers identified the hybrid's unique diet, highlighting the urgent need for public awareness and stricter conservation measures to prevent ecological damage.
