Article Abstract
Aims: In 2019, the Australian Academy of Science in collaboration with the nutrition community published the decadal plan for the science of nutrition. This article aims to review progress towards each of its pillar goals (societal determinants, nutrition mechanisms, precision and personalised nutrition, and education and training) and two enabling platforms (a national data capability and a trusted voice for nutrition science), prioritise actions, and conceptualise program logic implementation models. This process also brought together public health nutrition researchers to reflect on societal determinants of health, and advise how the next 5 years of the decadal plan could reflect contemporary issues.
Methods: Two engagement events, in 2023, brought together experienced and mid- and early-career nutrition professionals for co-creation of implementation logic models.
Results: One hundred and nine early and mid-career professionals were involved. A revised model for the decadal plan pillars emerged from synthesis of all logic models. This new model integrated the precision and personalised nutrition pillar with nutrition mechanisms pillar. These combined pillars build towards the national data capability enabling platform and created new cross-cutting themes for education and training. The need arose for greater focus on respectful engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and sustained effort to build cross-disciplinary collaboration to realise the plan's societal determinants goals. A new alliance for nutrition science is proposed to become a unified advocacy voice and build trust in nutrition professionals.
Conclusions: A programmatic approach provides a road map for implementing the decadal plan for the final 5 years.

Identifying research priorities for paediatric nutrition for Australia: A Delphi consensus approach.

June 2025
School of Primary and Allied Health Care, Monash University, Victoria, Australia.
Aim: The Australian Academy of Science's Decadal Plan for the science of nutrition emphasised research investment combined with system wide changes to improve the population's nutritional health. This study applied a Delphi consensus process with the aim to develop a definition for 'paediatric nutrition research' alongside identifying research themes and specific key priorities.
Methods: Multidisciplinary health professionals with expertise in paediatric nutrition were invited to participate in an on-line survey.
Assessing the long-term trend of spring discharge in a climate change hotspot area.

Global warming affects atmospheric and oceanic energy budgets, modifying the Earth's water cycle. The Mediterranean region is a critical zone for climate change due to a decrease in recharge and an increase in the frequency and severity of droughts over recent decades. While the impacts of possible emissions scenarios on surface water have been extensively studied, the effects on groundwater discharge remain uncertain at both global and local scales.

We investigated factors associated with the phenomenon by characterizing recent RVF disease events in East Africa.
Methods: Data on 100 disease events (2008 - 2022) from Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania were obtained from public databases and institutions, and modeled against possible geo-ecological risk factors of occurrence including altitude, soil type, rainfall/precipitation, temperature, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), livestock production system, land-use change, and long-term climatic variations.

Article Synopsis
- Organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) in fine particulate matter significantly affect human health, air quality, and climate change, necessitating long-term monitoring for effective clean air strategies.
- A comprehensive 10-year study (2013-2022) in Beijing observed average concentrations of OC at 8.8 µg/m³ and EC at 2.5 µg/m³, revealing a decline in both pollutants by 5.8% and 9.9% per year, respectively.
- The most significant reductions were noted in winter, attributed to clean air action plans, while weekend spikes in pollution levels were linked to traffic and residential emissions.
