The need for renewable energy has become increasingly evident in response to the climate change crisis, presenting a paradoxical challenge to biodiversity conservation. The Southwest United States is desirable for large-scale solar energy development (SED) due to its high global horizontal irradiance (GHI) values and vast open landscapes. However, this region is also rich in unique ecological and biological diversity.

- - Different dental schools use various methods to evaluate final assessments, commonly relying on objective structured clinical examinations or multiple long cases to measure applied knowledge and skills.
- - As the education landscape evolves, it's crucial to reconsider which skills should be evaluated and how, focusing on attributes that define a qualified dentist, like effective communication and case management.
- - A new dynamic assessment approach has been introduced, featuring interactive scenarios with shifting clinical situations, designed to better evaluate essential skills such as communication, clinical reasoning, and professionalism among graduates.
Since the term AI (artificial intelligence) was first coined, it has become embedded in modern life, with debate focusing on its challenges. In dentistry, AI is being used in clinical and education practice; however, many educators have limited knowledge or skills in its use. The British Alliance of Researchers in Dental Education and Scholarship hosted an AI-themed conference in November 2023.

There is a steer towards patient feedback informing the development of dental students and while there is recognition of its potential value to individual students, challenges exist related to collection and use. What is unclear is, within a dental education setting, the extent and use of patient feedback to individual students.

Methods: We developed a novel polysocial risk score for dementia based on 19 SDOH among 5 199 participants in the Health and Retirement Study, United States, to measure the social environmental risk. We used a survival analysis approach to assess the association between social environment and dementia risk in 2006-2020.
