How Climate-related Financial Policies Drive Emissions Reductions and Renewable Energy Growth
Climate-related financial policies (CRFPs) address climate change and financial stability by reducing risks and driving green investments. This study examines how their sequencing and enforcement shape CO2 emissions and renewable energy across 87 countries, offering policy insights.
Unsettling Power Dynamics: Collective Dialogues to Transform North-South Academic Partnerships
What does it take to move beyond entrenched colonial dynamics in North-South academic collaborations? Can collective reflexivity lead us toward meaningful change? In our recent work we explored a transformative approach to addressing these issues.
Offsetting Ozempic's Price Tag with Lower Food Costs
Many are rightfully concerned with the prices of novel anti-obesity medications, which can limit access to these transformational drugs. However, many U.S. patients reported spending less on food , with savings offsetting out of pocket medication costs for 41% of the surveyed sample.
Unraveling Two Decades of ENSO Forecasts
ENSO forecasting is vital for providing early warnings of climate anomalies and extreme weather globally. It enables better preparedness and decision-making in sectors like agriculture, water management, public health, and disaster risk reduction, helping mitigate socioeconomic impacts.
Bridging the Gap: Enhancing Diversity in Clinical Trials to Advance Medicine
Breakthroughs to advance human health require clinical trials that include communities less engaged in research and development of potentially lifesaving medical interventions. To address this, a coalition created the Equitable Breakthroughs in Medicine Development Site Maturity Assessment Model.
