Home alone: Remote work, isolation, and mental health How does remote work affect isolation and mental health? We drew on five nationally representative surveys of American workers (N = 588,322) conducted from 2011 to 2024, omitting the peak pandemic years of 2020–2021. Our difference-in-differences ...

Biological aging and generational shifts in early-onset cancer risk - Nature Medicine Analyses of population cohorts found that young adults exhibited earlier systemic and organ-specific aging, which was associated with increased risk of early-onset cancer compared with older adults born decades earlier.

Global advances in health artificial intelligence: a workforce imperative The global health workforce is approaching a breaking point, driven by administrative overload, inefficient workflows, burnout, and accelerating retirements, with a projected global shortfall of 11 million health professionals by 2030. This urgency coincides with the rapid emergence of clinical arti...

Towards Conversational AI for Disease Management - Nature While large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in diagnostic dialogue1, their capabilities for effective management reasoning—including disease progression, therapeutic response, and safe medication prescription—remain under-explored. We advance the previously demonstrated diagnostic capa...

Towards autonomous medical artificial intelligence agents - Nature A large language model artificial intelligence agent operating in a sandboxed electronic health record system can autonomously take patient histories, order tests, interpret findings, diagnose conditions and propose treatments, outperforming experienced clinicians while adhering to safety stand...

Safety and accuracy follow different scaling laws in clinical large language models Clinical LLMs are often scaled by increasing model size, context length, retrieval complexity, or inference-time compute, with the implicit expectation that higher accuracy implies safer behavior. This assumption is incomplete in medicine, where a few confident, high-risk, or evidence-contradicting....
