What is prolonged grief disorder? While most people will experience a transition period after the loss of a loved one where the acute pain fades and they learn to adapt, some people stay in that period of intense grief. With prolonged grief disorder, "we're not learning to adjust to...

I see Ramesh Ponnuru of national review had more in common with Jonathan Capehart, not that David Brooks lacked different insights.

An important distinction in mental health. Differentiating between the natural, adaptive process of grieving and prolonged grief disorder is crucial for clinicians to provide effective, targeted therapy. Looking forward to watching this episode on Horizons.

Alcohol is a cultural staple, woven into many parts of our social lives. Drinking is central to many holidays, celebrations and daily rituals, and yet it takes a terrible toll on our health, the economy and the lives of millions of people. Epidemiologist Priscilla Martinez said that in the alcohol research field, the term "alcoholic" is no longer used because of the stigma attached to it. "It's important to note that the definition of an alcohol use disorder is not defined by how much or how often you drink. It's defined by the problems that it causes you and some of the physical symptoms you might have from that," Martinez, who is the deputy scientific director at the Alcohol Research Group, told host William Brangham.

The world is drowning in trash. Each day, we toss out 3.5 million tons of it. Trash pollutes our lands and waters, with harmful impacts to many living things on Earth. The UN estimates that if we don't change course, the amount of plastic trash we produce is projected to triple by 2060. One proposed solution to this crisis is recycling. But for some people, there's a lingering cynicism that recycling is a scam, that it doesn't really help and that it's more about creating positive feelings than doing something meaningful. Horizons host William Brangham discussed this cynicism with Judith Enck, founder of Beyond Plastics, an organization that campaigns to end plastic waste.

Public schools across the U.S. are pulling back on the amount of tech for students after making classrooms feel like "an office," The New York Times' Natasha Singer (Natasha Singer) says. "Schools felt like they were trying to make schools like offices ... where every worker has their own device and spends most of their day on their device, emailing and writing presentations," she told Horizons host William Brangham. "I think schools are pulling back on that and saying, actually, a classroom is a classroom, it's not a mini business and kids are not mini-entrepreneurs," she added.

Fibroids are tumors that grow on or in the wall of the uterus, and about 70% to 80% of women will have them in their lifetime. Black women suffer the most. But fibroids are widely misunderstood and poorly researched. Federal research about fibroids receives far less money compared to other conditions like prostate or breast cancer. While fibroids start small, they can grow to be very large — as big as a grapefruit, or even a watermelon. They are not cancerous, but they can wreak as much havoc as cancer by causing severe bleeding, anemia, pain and complicating the ability to have children. Horizons host William Brangham discussed the research gap with Sateria Venable, founder of the Fibroid Foundation. The organization advocates for women suffering with fibroids and campaigns for greater awareness and research.

Exercise is good for our bodies, but the reasons behind why and how are still being studied. “Basically, you will extend your life if you exercise,” Dr. Euan Ashley, a professor of genomics and cardiovascular medicine at Stanford University and chair of its Department of Medicine, told Horizons host William Brangham. Ashley is a part of a massive, decade-long multi-site investigation into how and why exercise changes our bodies at the molecular level. “It turns out that just a few minutes improvement in sleep, a few minutes of exercise a day and a little improvement in your diet can add a whole year of life to your life,” he said.

An Austrian cow named Veronika is surprising scientists with her ability to deliberately use a tool — specifically, picking up a broom with her mouth to scratch her back. "Despite millennia of domestication for productivity, livestock have been almost entirely excluded from discussions of animal intelligence. Veronika's case challenges this neglect," researchers wrote in their study, which was published last month in Current Biology. "Perhaps the real absurdity lies not in imagining a tool-using cow, but in assuming such a thing could never exist." William Brangham has more.

Biologically, menopause is defined as the point at which a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period and is no longer able to become pregnant. Menopause is usually preceded by a phase called perimenopause, when natural hormone levels start to fluctuate. Perimenopause can often trigger a series of emotional and physical symptoms. “What we forget is that, yes, hot flashes, insomnia, vaginal dryness, all these not only impact on quality of life, but they are also impacting on length of life,” Dr. Lauren Streicher, a clinical professor in obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, told host William Brangham. Streicher, who is also a certified menopause practitioner and the founding medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause, added that the choices made in midlife, during the menopause transition, can affect chances of developing osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, stroke and other conditions later. “We've learned so much that there is a very high association with what women are experiencing now and how that is going to have repercussions years down the road,” Streicher said.

The ice in the Arctic and Antarctica plays critical roles in maintaining life on Earth. They are the biggest reservoirs of freshwater on the planet and help steer ocean currents, which are major drivers of our weather. But if enough of that ice melts, sea levels could rise all over the world. That’s why a team of scientists is studying the Thwaites Glacier, nicknamed the "Doomsday Glacier," which is roughly the size of Florida and melting fast. PBS News Hour’s science correspondent Miles O’Brien joined Horizons host William Brangham from the western coast of Antarctica, where he is aboard a scientific expedition to report on the glacier. "Let’s remember the glacier’s not the villain," O’Brien told Brangham. "Human beings are the villain that are making the ice melt." O'Brien noted that Thwaites itself "contains enough, if melted, enough water to raise sea level, the world over, 2.5 feet." But the glacier also buttresses two other ice shelves. "If it starts this cascade of melt and collapse, there would be very little to stop it from causing about 10 feet of sea level rise all over the world," he said.

Parents across the U.S. are revolting against screen use and artificial intelligence in schools as part of a "global reckoning" against technology, The New York Times' Natasha Singer (Natasha Singer) says. "The parent pushback against tech in schools is partly connected to concerns over data centers, rising concerns about Flock surveillance cameras on the streets, a pushback against Meta glasses," she told Horizons host William Brangham. "The parent pushback against tech in schools is also partly about control, that there's this feeling that Big Tech has had runaway influence on society globally." Singer, author of "Coding Kids: Big Tech’s Battle to Remake Public School," added that parents are also questioning whether the technology is actually helping or harming their child.

PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals,” are a large group of synthetic chemicals that break down very slowly over time and are linked to harmful effects on human health. They’re used in a vast array of products, from pots and pans to computers and even dental floss. Laurel Schaider, senior scientist at the Silent Spring Institute in Massachusetts, studies the spread of PFAS chemicals in the drinking water and their effects on human health. She discussed ways that people can take steps to reduce exposure to PFAS in their daily lives. “There are some things that we can do, such as avoiding buying Teflon-coated pans, skipping stain resistant or waterproof items where they're not needed,” she told Horizons host William Brangham. Schaider noted that, while formulations of food packaging have changed, her past advice has been to avoid microwave popcorn and other types of grease-proof food packaging which might contain PFAS. “People are surprised to learn that Glide dental floss is made of Teflon," she said. "There are cosmetics with PFAS." But there is a challenge, Schaider said, because the products don’t include labels that disclose if they contain these chemicals.

Iranians are using grief and mourning as acts of defiance against the regime. Forty days from the death of a loved one marks the end of the traditional mourning period in Persian culture, and this week, families across Iran have been marking the end of that period. Between January 8-10, regime forces are believed to have killed thousands and possibly tens of thousands of people who took part in the anti-government protests. And now, their families are rejecting the somber customs they associate with the regime and are instead expressing grief on their own terms.

The COVID-19 pandemic overwhelmed the U.S. health care system and killed more than a million Americans. When it comes to the outbreak of another pandemic, it's a question of "when," not "if." Fast-tracking vaccines saved millions of lives, but missteps in the government’s response and misinformation online damaged public trust. Six years after COVID-19 changed our lives, is the country prepared to handle another pandemic? "Having baseline levels of societal protection are absolutely critical for any major shock, including a pandemic," Elizabeth Cameron, a professor and senior advisor to the Pandemic Center at Brown University’s School of Public Health, told host William Brangham. "All of those things need to be handled now, before the next major pandemic, and we're really sliding backwards." Cameron, who previously worked on global health security for both the Obama and Biden administrations, said she has concerns about how the next pandemic could start. "We do see an increase in the likelihood that we could have an accidental or a deliberate release of a pandemic," she said.

It's only a matter of time until they grow again,'" Nyong'o wrote for the Foundation for Women's Health. "This moment crystallized something profound for me. I realized that as women, we are conditioned from an early age to expect suffering, and to endure it in silence."
