    The Arctic Is Changing. What Does It Mean for Geopolitics? | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Arctic is changing faster than almost anywhere on Earth. Rapid warming and sea ice melt are impacting Arctic ecosystems, with large-scale economic and political repercussions. Sea melt has severely threatened food security for Indigenous communities, disrupting traditional hunting seasons, altering wildlife migrations, and making travel routes unstable. These patterns have also created renewed sets of international governance challenges, with world powers (the United States, the European Uni

    Harvard Expert: Regulate AI Like Any Other Technology | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    What should AI policy be trying to accomplish? Alexander Pascal, the executive director of Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society, argues that policymakers should resist the temptation to treat AI as a category of technology requiring an entirely new policy vocabulary. Pascal previously worked on social media and AI policy in the Biden administration.

    What Makes a Fact, According to a Harvard Social Scientist | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Debate and scrutiny are essential parts of the scientific process; they help researchers test ideas, refine theories, and correct errors. But even in the scientific realm, disputes can move beyond competing interpretations of evidence and into deeper questions: What counts as a fact? Who gets to define expertise?

    A Harvard Choral Group Sings Again, 50 Years Later | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    In the summer of 1976, 50 undergraduate singers from Harvard boarded a plane for their group’s first international tour. The Harvard-Radcliffe Collegium Musicum (HRCM), formed in 1971 and then only five years old, took an eight-week journey to some of Europe’s most celebrated churches, cathedrals, and concert venues. Fifty years later, members of that 1976 group went on tour again, singing in a series of four concerts between July 10 and 12, 2026, in some of the original venues, singing many of

    A Harvard Evolutionary Biologist Explains Why Exercise Matters on GLP-1s | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    About 11 percent of U.S. adults—roughly 28 million Americans—are now taking GLP-1 medications for weight loss, according to a recent Gallup poll. The drugs have transformed conversations around obesity, appetite, and metabolism. Lost in much of the dialogue, however, is how these drugs should fit into a broader approach to physical health and exercise. Separately, as demand surges, new debates have begun to unfold over who should pay and have access—with insurers, employers, and policymakers gra
