Time to Ensure Equity in Global Research Vocabulary
Categorizing countries into “low- and middle-income countries” and “high income countries” is not appropriate for studying healthcare systems and population health.

How Indigenous people shaped Australia ’s curious geography of plants
On shady, densely wooded riverbanks in eastern Australia, the black bean tree is easily missed. It can reach 12 stories tall, but Castanospermum australe mostly blends in with its rainforest peers. Each November, however, it catches the eye as sprays of large red and orange blossoms adorn its dark, glossy leaves. Six months later, cylindrical pods longer than a banana encase three to five large seeds. The seed pods are buoyant, so those that end up in the water can drift away, allowing the seeds to germinate far from the parent tree. But each seed weighs about as much as a mouse—too heavy to be carried off by ...

Ancient mud cracks on Mars point to conditions favorable for life
Did life once exist on Mars? Today, the planet is frigid, dry, and inhospitable. But billions of years ago, water flowed through rivers and filled lakes. Now, the discovery of distinctive mud cracks on the planet’s surface suggest ancient Mars cycled through sustained wet and dry seasons for millions of years. Not only would the climate have been habitable, scientists say, but the cycling might have also given the basic chemistry of life a boost. The discovery, reported today in Nature , is compelling evidence for an Earth-like climate on early Mars and presents “thought-provoking” theories about the...
