U-Michigan, UC Riverside Launch Alliance to Promote Hydrogen-Fueled Internal Combustion Engines
University of Michigan

Hydrogen has the potential to power internal combustion engines, including on-road and off-road vehicles and equipment, and large marine engines. Despite its promise to reduce climate change emissions such as carbon dioxide and harmful pollutants, hydrogen has largely remained underutilized in the United States. Officials at the University of Michigan and University of California, Riverside, along with several industry partners, are working to change that with the launch of the Hydrogen Engine Alliance of North America, or H2EA-NA. The alliance will promote hydrogen as a viable alternative fuel that can complement internal combustion engine, or ICE, vehicles while supporting the transition to electric and other zero emission technologies.

Osteoporosis Screening with Opportunistic CT Could Double Screening Rates and Avoid up to 2.5 Billion in Medical Costs
Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute

A new multi-institute study demonstrates the potential prevention and economic benefits from the opportunistic use of CT (OCT), defined as screening performed using CT images that were collected for a different purpose. The study, published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, showed that using CT imaging that includes the upper lumbar spine in its field of view to screen for osteoporosis could increase the screening rate in the Medicare fee-for-service population by 113% without requiring any additional imaging. The work was a collaboration among researchers from the Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute, New York University Langone Health, and Massachusetts General Hospital.
