HHS Launches SURPASS Program to Revolutionize Clinical Trial Design with AI

HHS Launches SURPASS Program to Revolutionize Clinical Trial Design with AI

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has initiated the SURPASS program, an AI-driven effort aimed at transforming clinical trial design and execution. This five-year program, operated by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), seeks to move beyond traditional fixed-phase trials by integrating predictive computational models, continuous analysis, and automated operations. SURPASS, which stands for Simulation-augmented, Real-time Platform Adaptive Seamless Trials, is designed to identify hidden protocol risks, such as overly restrictive eligibility criteria and patient dropout patterns, through AI-driven simulations. The initiative combines adaptive platform trial design, AI-enabled site activation, a nationwide data infrastructure, and patient data contribution tools. This comprehensive approach is intended to reduce trial timelines, costs, and patient burden, ultimately speeding up the development of new drugs and therapies. The program is part of a larger federal initi...

Virginia Lawmakers Enact Strict Labeling Requirements for Cultivated Meat Products

Virginia Lawmakers Enact Strict Labeling Requirements for Cultivated Meat Products

Virginia has implemented new legislation mandating clear labeling for manufactured-protein products, including cultivated meat, when they are presented as traditional meat or poultry. This law, effective July 1, 2026, requires products that are plant-based, meatless, cell-cultivated, fungus-based, or insect-based to be explicitly identified as such. The move comes as videos circulating on social media suggest lab-grown meat is widely available in grocery stores, a claim experts and Virginia law dispute. According to Shaye Arluk, a registered dietitian and nutritionist at Sentara Health, cultivated meat is produced from animal cells grown in a controlled environment with added nutrients, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and growth factors to develop muscle, connective tissue, and fat. While several companies are developing various types of cultivated meat, its presence on grocery shelves remains limited. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspecti...

Montana Officials Euthanize 14 Black Bears After Alleged Feeding Incident Near Bozeman

Montana Officials Euthanize 14 Black Bears After Alleged Feeding Incident Near Bozeman

Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (FWP) officials euthanized 14 black bears and relocated one cub after responding to a report of alleged supplemental feeding at a residence north of Bozeman. Investigators found the bears on September 24 and 25 to be 'extremely food conditioned and habituated to human presence.' Due to significant human safety concerns arising from the bears' behavior, the decision was made to capture and humanely euthanize the 14 adult bears. The single cub was transported to FWP’s Montana WILD facility in Helena, with the possibility of placement at an accredited zoo. State law in Montana prohibits providing supplemental feed to game animals, including bears, as this practice can lead to bears losing their natural foraging instincts and becoming a danger to human communities.

Consumer Reports Delivers 100,000 Signatures to FDA Demanding Action on Snack Additives

Consumer Reports Delivers 100,000 Signatures to FDA Demanding Action on Snack Additives

Consumer Reports has delivered a petition with 100,000 signatures to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) headquarters in College Park, Maryland, urging the agency to address the presence of concerning additives in snack foods. This action follows a joint investigation by Consumer Reports and the food and cosmetic scanner app Yuka, which found that 25% of reviewed snacks contained additive levels exceeding thresholds set by U.S. or European public health agencies. The petition highlights that iconic brands like Cheetos, Jell-O, and Hostess are selling products with ingredients that, according to Consumer Reports, "don't belong in our bodies." The organizations are demanding that the FDA "clean up our food supply and cut these dangerous additives in our food," framing the issue as a regulatory oversight problem rather than solely a matter of personal consumer choice. The delivery of the petition aims to exert regulatory pressure and demonstrate widespread public concern over food additives.
