We believe in a better future where science is open to all, for all.

Jacques and Dunlap's close reading of climate denial narratives finds a persistent underlying anti-environmentalism and rejection of "impact science" in addition to trends identified in previous research: the denial of climate trends/harms and of the role of humans in it. These reflect a deep "anti-reflexivity", opposing mitigation strategies.

Kumah and colleagues plan to systematically investigate the range of HIV prevention and treatments with the view to evaluate how HIV outcome disparities limit the effectiveness of global HIV responses. The study may inform future policy and practice, supporting more targeted, inclusive, and sustainable HIV responses.

Canassa and colleagues reveal the loss of up to 80% of mid-to-large mammal species across the Caatinga scrubland in Brazil since pre-colonial times (ca. 1500 AD), largely driven by the conversion to agricultural land. This caused a 77% decrease in average mammal biomass and a severe loss of ecosystem functionality.

Goyanes and colleagues analyze gender inequality across disciplines and continents using highly cited author data, showing that women’s long-term academic recognition may be hindered by structural barriers, even when citation rates match or exceed men’s after accounting for productivity.
