Recognitional justice in adaptation planning lessons from 25 U.S. cities
Abstract Abolitionist and critical climate justice approaches provide a theoretical framework beyond environmental justice for identifying inequities driving or stemming from climate change, specifically those related to recognitional injustice. Leveraging these insights, we provide an empirical assessment of how U.S. cities are considering mobilizing recognitional justice while implementing climate adaptation efforts on the ground.

Improved VSV-Ebola-GP booster vaccination approach promotes antibody affinity maturation and durable anti-Ebola immunity in humans
Abstract Short-term boosting of the currently licensed rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP vaccine does not generate lasting antibody respones to Ebola virus (EBOV), prompting interest in strategies that elicit more durable immunity. Here, we elucidated the longitudinal humoral immune repertoire over 3 years following prime and boost rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP vaccinations administered 18 months apart in healthy adults compared to participants randomized to no boost.

Data Observability in the Cloud: Three Things to Look for in Holistic Data Platform Governance
Thanks to AI, next-generation data observability tools will extend beyond identifying problems and explain how to resolve the problem. To do so, your data platforms will need these three key features. Today, the speed of innovation is accelerating at an astronomical pace as companies, regardless of their market sector, strive to do more with more -- more data, more AI and LLMs, more users, more projects, and ominously, more opportunities for pipelines to break or stall.
Governing intersectional climate justice: Tactics and lessons from Barcelona
1 INTRODUCTION Cities play a strategic role in facilitating the global governance of climate change (Brundtland, 1987; Gordon, 2020). Recently, efforts to tackle the climate emergency have been increasingly mobilized in conjunction with the fight for wider social justice (Bulkeley, 2021; Kotsila et al., 2022; Rice et al., 2023).

Use of Thrust Cervical Spinal Manipulative Therapy for Complicated Neck Pain: A Cross-Sectional Survey of Asia-Pacific Chiropractors
This cross-sectional survey of Asia-Pacific chiropractors was the first study to our knowledge that explored chiropractors’ use of cSMT in patients with neck pain and precautions or contraindications to this treatment. Our findings supported our hypothesis as greater than half of the respondents indicated that they would not use thrust-cSMT in each clinical vignette of precaution/contraindication, suggesting that chiropractors are cautious with the use of thrust-CSMT in these scenarios.
Spontaneous Cervical Epidural Hematoma Following COVID-19 Illness Presenting to a Chiropractor: A Case Report
Introduction Cervical epidural hematoma (CEH) is a form of spinal epidural hematoma (SEH), a condition in which blood accumulates in the spinal epidural space. It often presents with acute onset neck pain with radiation into the extremities with or without neurologic deficit [1]. In some cases, CEH may be spontaneous, occurring without any trauma [1,2].
Concurrent Spinal and Intracranial Subdural Hematomas as a Cause of Near-Fatal Low Back Pain in the Chiropractic Office: A Case Report
Introduction Subdural hematoma (SDH) is a type of hemorrhage in which blood accumulates in the subdural meningeal space. Intracranial SDH is relatively common and represents the leading cause of death related to ground-level falls in individuals aged 65 years and older [1]. In comparison, spinal SDH is rare, making up only 4% of cases of spinal hematoma [2].
Climate Justice in India
“There are growing calls for climate justice but what do they mean in a country like India haunted by centuries of oppression and injustice? This important volume demonstrates both conceptually and empirically how India's climate crisis is interlocked with multiple socio-political, economic and ecological crises and inequalities. Going beyond the usual international focus, Kashwan and collaborators unpack these issues at national, state-levels and in specific sectoral areas.
Lumbar Schwannoma as a Rare Cause of Radiculopathy in the Chiropractic Office: A Case Report
Introduction Lumbosacral radiculopathy, also called sciatica, is a common condition involving low back pain radiating to the lower extremity with sensory, motor, and/or reflex deficit(s). While this condition is most commonly caused by lumbar disc herniation, it may rarely stem from more serious pathology, such as tumors [1]. Tumors of the cauda equina (the bundle of lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal nerves in the lumbar spine) are uncommon, typically benign, and slow-growing [2,3].
Characterizing the targets of transcription regulators by aggregating ChIP-seq and perturbation expression data sets
New Results doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.08.30.505909 Abstract Mapping the gene targets of chromatin-associated transcription regulators (TRs) is a major goal of genomics research. ChIP-seq of TRs and experiments that perturb a TR and measure the differential abundance of gene transcripts are a primary means by which direct relationships are tested on a genomic scale.
Taiwan’s path forward: A conversation with KMT Chairman Eric Chu
With elections approaching later this year and in 2024, voters in Taiwan will face a choice on Taiwan’s future. Their choices could have far-reaching implications for regional and global security and for America’s interests in Asia. On June 6, the Brookings Institution and the Center for Strategic and International Studies will co-host Kuomintang Chairman Eric Chu for keynote remarks on the Kuomintang Party’s vision for the future of Taiwan.
Six steps to integrate climate mitigation with adaptation for social justice
Ecological restoration is the most promising way to combat ecological degradation and improve ecological stability. However, it remains unclear at what scale ecological restoration is needed for the ecological degradation region related with ecosystem services under ongoing and future climate change. Based on that, this study assessed carbon sequestration (CS), water supply index (WSI), and mean species abundance (MSA) from 2000 to 2020 on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP).
Unlocking the Potential for Transformative Climate Adaptation in Cities
Cities are increasingly integrating climate adaptation priorities into development policies and plans. However, there remains a gap in understanding how incremental urban adaptation solutions can lead to more transformative change over the long term. Transformative adaptation reorients urban climate actions around addressing entrenched equity and climate justice challenges.
A climate resilience research renewal agenda: learning lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic for urban climate resilience
1. Introduction What lessons might the COVID-19 pandemic offer for climate resilience? While impacts and responses to the climate change crisis are observable and increasing, limited action on vulnerability reduction, building adaptive capacity and risk management allow risk to accumulate below the surface in everyday behaviour and development processes.
Taiwan Is Ready to Bolster America’s Coronavirus Vaccine Arsenal
Amidst a global pandemic, the parallel universe in which Taiwan enjoyed a reprieve underwent a reality check in May 2021, when the spread of the coronavirus spiraled out of control for the first time at the local level. As a reaction to the bad news, Taiwan’s major stock index experienced two of the largest plunges in history later that same month, trading at record volumes.
Subaltern forms of knowledge are required to boost local adaptation
Summary Evidence shows that current adaptation planning approaches are not always successful in generating actionable knowledge to guide implementation on the ground. There remains a persistent disconnect between the production of (physical) climate science and the implementation of practical, local, and context-specific adaptation actions.
Parents’ Online School Reviews Reflect Several Racial and Socioeconomic Disparities in K–12 Education - Nabeel Gillani, Eric Chu, Doug Beeferman, Rebecca Eynon, Deb Roy, 2021
Introduction Equitable access to quality education continues to be an elusive goal for many nations worldwide (Graetz et al., 2020). In response, choice-based systems have grown in popularity over the past several decades (Musset, 2012): for example, in the form of expanded in-district schooling options, and charter schools.
Data and cooperation required for Venezuela’s refugee crisis during COVID-19
Abstract The deteriorating political and economic situation in Venezuela has ramifications far beyond the Latin American country’s borders as almost five million Venezuelans fled and migrated into countries in the region due to the crisis at home. The scarcity of health services, the lack of information sharing, and the absence of reliable data in Venezuela create challenges for confronting developing health emergencies and disease outbreaks.
The World Can Benefit From Taiwan’s WHO Participation

Credit: Office of the President, ROC (Taiwan) The world is facing a widespread coronavirus outbreak that has killed more than 900 people and infected over 40,000 — the vast majority in the People’s Republic of China (PRC).
‘Participatory’ adaptation plans aren’t working for migrants in cities
As cities across the global South grapple with climate change, many are designing plans to deal with escalating climate impacts including erratic precipitation and unpredictable shifts in temperature. And in response to global agendas such as the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement, these plans seek to integrate basic development priorities while improving access to basic services including water, sanitation and health.
Self-induced mechanical stress can trigger biofilm formation in uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i>
Previously, we have shown that bacteria can be cultured in microfluidic chambers with boundaries permeable to nutrients and metabolites, but largely impassable to cells, leading to dense cell packing17. This type of culture provides spatial confinement and can serve as a model for understanding the effects of self-imposed mechanical stress on the expanding bacterial colonies.
Urban climate adaptation and the reshaping of state–society relations: The politics of community knowledge and mobilisation in Indore, India:
Current research on climate change adaptation in cities highlights the role of local governments in facilitating adaptation actions, but rarely assesses whether (and if so, how) local communities organise around emerging climate priorities to affect political change. This paper explores changing state–society relationships through the reconstitution of community collectives and advocacy organisations for advancing climate change adaptation in the Indian city of Indore.
AI’s growing impact
Burgeoning data analyzed by ever more intelligent machines are opening pathways to surprising applications and providing solutions to problems that have been out of reach. In the film industry, machines “watch” movies and videos, charting their emotional intensity and giving content creators clues about to how to make stories more appealing.
AI in storytelling: Machines as cocreators
Computers don’t cry during sad stories, but they can tell when we will. Sunspring debuted at the SCI-FI LONDON film festival in 2016. Set in a dystopian world with mass unemployment, the movie attracted many fans, with one viewer describing it as amusing but strange. But the most notable aspect of the film involves its creation: an artificial-intelligence (AI) bot wrote Sunspring’s screenplay. “Wow,” you think.
