Boreal conifers - the 'Christmas trees' - maintain their green needles over the winter by retaining their chlorophyll. These conifers face the toughest challenge in February and March, when subzero temperatures coincide with high solar radiation. To balance the light energy they harvest with the light energy they utilise, conifers deploy various mechanisms in parallel.

- Pediatric-onset immune-mediated inflammatory disease (pIMID) significantly raises the long-term risk of various cancers compared to non-affected individuals, with a twofold increase in cancer risk observed.
- A study involving 12,664 pIMID patients revealed that treatments like thiopurines and anti-TNFα are linked to a markedly higher risk of developing lymphoma and skin cancer.
- The findings emphasize the need for tailored immunotherapy and ongoing cancer monitoring for those diagnosed with pIMID.
This study investigated the fate of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the in-house process-water treatment (PWT) of a 65 MW Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plant. PFAS are used in a wide variety of applications, but are persistent and will end up in waste streams when products reach the end of their lives. The study aimed to identify the pathway of PFAS from flue-gas treatment to the PWT, and to assess the efficiency of the PWT in removing PFAS.
