Background: Sexually transmitted infections are a significant public health concern, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where their prevalence remains high. Promoting awareness and reducing stigma are essential strategies for addressing this challenge, but those affected often have limited access to accurate and culturally appropriate health information. Therefore, innovative solutions are essential to enhance sexual health literacy and encourage informed health-seeking behaviors.

Foodborne illness outbreaks are a serious public health concern; faster identification enables the implementation of control measures to prevent others from becoming ill. User-generated data and artificial intelligence can be used to develop outbreak signals that could be disclosed to the public before they are associated with an actual outbreak of foodborne illness. We employed a vignette-based discrete choice experiment survey to examine when and why individuals would self-identify as ill during a publicized foodborne illness outbreak.

Ongoing changes in the distribution and abundance of several tick species of medical relevance in Canada have prompted the development of the eTick platform-an image-based crowd-sourcing public surveillance tool for Canada enabling rapid tick species identification by trained personnel, and public health guidance based on tick species and province of residence of the submitter. Considering that more than 100,000 images from over 73,500 identified records representing 25 tick species have been submitted to eTick since the public launch in 2018, a partial automation of the image processing workflow could save substantial human resources, especially as submission numbers have been steadily increasing since 2021. In this study, we evaluate an end-to-end artificial intelligence (AI) pipeline to support tick identification from eTick user-submitted images, characterized by heterogeneous quality and uncontrolled acquisition conditions.

Online surveys have become a key tool of modern health research, offering a fast, cost-effective, and convenient means of data collection. It enables researchers to access diverse populations, such as those underrepresented in traditional studies, and facilitates the collection of stigmatized or sensitive behaviors through greater anonymity. However, the ease of participation also introduces significant challenges, particularly around data integrity and rigor.

Epigenetic gestational age acceleration has been implicated in obstetric syndromes including preeclampsia, yet robust conclusions require accurate and unbiased epigenetic age models. Herein, we curated 1,842 public placental methylomes and organized a DREAM challenge to develop models of gestational age. Participants were blinded to the test data that we generated from 384 placentas encompassing normal and complicated pregnancies.
