About The Study: The findings of this study suggest that adverse childhood experiences may increase youth obesity risk, but promotion of resiliency-focused skills may help improve pediatric weight trajectories among disproportionately impacted populations. 

The Hertz Foundation is proud to recognize the 16 most recent graduates of the Hertz Fellowship in applied science, mathematics and engineering.

About The Study: The results of this randomized clinical trial show that adjunctive semaglutide significantly improved glycemic control and weight outcomes in individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Secondary outcomes were exploratory. These findings support the use of glucagon-like peptide–1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) as a potential early intervention strategy to reduce cardiometabolic risk in this vulnerable population. 

About The Article: This Viewpoint from infectious disease experts cautions about the consequences of rescinding the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices policy to immunize all newborns against hepatitis B and estimates the number of perinatal infections that may occur under revised guidelines.

Scientists find that pure mathematical formulae used to calculate the value of pi 100 years ago has connections to fundamental physics of today – showing up in theoretical models of percolation, turbulence, and certain aspects of black holes

Researchers examined five AI models on multiple genomic tasks to see how well they performed

Models performed well overall, with each having strengths and weaknesses based on the desired task
