Yale has launched a three-year, $4.5 million fund for New Haven nonprofit groups working to make lasting investments in neighborhoods citywide.

Yale President Maurie McInnis and New Haven Mayor Justin Elicker were joined by local nonprofit leaders and other guests at the announcement of the new fund, held at the Dixwell-Yale Community Learning Center, also known as the Rose Center.

Beginning immediately, the Yale and New Haven Community Fund is accepting applications for project-specific awards of up to $500,000.

New Haven nonprofits can apply now through the end of August. Learn more: bit.ly/4vgXaJi

Personalized pricing is moving from theory to reality.

As policymakers debate how companies use consumer data to set prices, Maryland recently became the first U.S. state to prohibit the use of personal data in setting individualized prices for groceries and other goods. In a Q&A, Yale economist Jidong Zhou explores the practice, the policies designed to regulate it, and the challenges of enforcement.

New research is offering insight into how primates work together.

In a Yale study, scientists found that pairs of marmosets successfully completed a task by relying on what researchers call the “social gaze,” providing new clues about how primates coordinate their behavior.

Was it Charles Dickens or Mark Twain who said Hillhouse Avenue is the most beautiful street in America?

The source is debated, but the claim is the same. Six of the grand 19th-century mansions lining Hillhouse Avenue are now Yale buildings, each with its own history. One housed a future president. Another is the oldest structure on the street, built in 1826 for a descendant of New Haven's founder.

Take a closer look at the buildings and the people behind them: bit.ly/4dSZVdx

"There is a whole world under our feet from the past that we're not aware of."

That's how Sam Blair, a recent Yale School of the Environment graduate, describes what he set out to reveal with the New Haven Digital Atlas, an interactive map letting users explore what the city's shoreline looked like before industrialization, where historic mills once stood and what they left behind, and how neighborhoods like City Point looked in 1846, when they were still farm fields and open water.

The caves were still full of surprises.

Researchers have identified a previously unknown species of eyeless cavefish living in cave systems across Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia. The discovery offers some of the strongest evidence yet that subterranean ecosystems are not the evolutionary dead ends scientists once thought they were.
