“Inflammation in the brain and spine contributes to cognitive decline, compromises the ability to form new neurons, and exacerbates age-related diseases. By investigating the effects of heat stress on the gut-liver-brain crosstalk, we can better protect our increasingly vulnerable aging population.” (Saurabh Chatterjee)

“Our findings have the potential to be used for the development of prognostic and therapeutic markers for precise interventions. In a dynamically changing global landscape, the imminent threat of climate change is evident in rising temperatures, raising concerns about intermittent heat waves. Our heating planet is undoubtedly leading to acute and chronic heat stress that harms the health of our aging population.” (Saurabh Chatterjee)

“I think having substitutes and replacements for added sugars that reduce energy and sugar intake and have no unintended impacts on health is something that would be welcomed by the public, scientists and clinicians.” (Andrew Odegaard)

“Given that the virus can be present in chicken and cows, there’s a potential—albeit unlikely potential—for exposure to bird flu through raw milk or eggs. It’s not responsible to say absolutely that bird flu cannot be transmitted through food. All foods from bird sources should be cooked properly.” (Dele Ogunseitan)
