Parts of the U.S. are scarred with one-shot volcanoes.
Some volcanoes are short-lived, erupting only once over their lifetime. Yet, that eruption can last for days, years or even decades. Called monogenetic or "one birth" volcanoes, scientists believe an active one represents a major environmental threat and see the tortured terrain they leave behind ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction as a Universal Driver for Increased Health Risks: from COVID to COSMOS (Day 2)
We are delighted to welcome you to join us for this exciting meeting on the relevance of mitochondrial biology to multiple health states and diseases.
The goal of this meeting is to increase the awareness of the importance of mitochondria in disease initiation and progression, plus highlight the effects of unique environments on mitochondrial function and discuss what is needed to support the development of advanced diagnostics and sensors for bioenergetics that can monitor for disease onset and progression.
The meeting is split up into four sessions over two days with the following main topics:
1) Mitochondrial impact on ...

Mindfulness as a Support for Healing Conversations and Actions Toward Social Justice and Equity
From personal to structural, racism may be understood as an endemic public health threat with crisis-level effects. Mindfulness practices, originating from numerous cultures and spiritual traditions, are an active area of scientific investigation for health and other benefits. Mindfulness is often studied for its internal effects in individuals. However, many important research questions remain underexplored. For example, how might mindfulness practices be applied to disrupt bias and minimize racism ’ s harms? How might the science of mindfulness be directed toward further exploring their external, interpersonal, and sys...
