  • New Survey by Stagwell’s The Harris Poll Reveals Science is Under Siege

    New Survey by Stagwell’s The Harris Poll Reveals Science is Under Siege

    While a majority of Americans say misinformation about science has worsened, 9-in-10 Republicans and Democrats agree US should play leading role in global scientific research; only 1-in-5 believe US is leading versus China

    Americans primarily point to businesses (23%) and non-profits (19%) to step in, if the government cannot fund scientific research

    NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / March 18, 2026 / The Harris Poll, a Stagwell (NASDAQ:STGW) agency, announced today the results from a landmark survey, “Science Under Siege: The Battle Between Viral Misinformation and Shared Belief in the Value of Science,” sponsored by Bayer. The survey revealed a profound “misinformation paradox” at the heart of American life: while 80% of Americans blame social media for false or misleading health and science information in the media and online, these platforms are the public’s top source for such news.

    Underpinning this issue is the emergence of a “headline-only” culture, underscored by a staggering 75% of Americans who admit to having shared articles related to health and science with someone they know in the past month based on the headline alone and without reading the full article first. The same poll found that 71% of Americans say that online content creators are very or somewhat to blame for misinformation about science and health.

    Misinformation around health and science could be affecting trust in credible sources like doctors and scientists, particularly among young adults. The majority of young adults ages 18-34 (51%) rely on social media as their primary source of science and health information and nearly 1-in-5 distrust doctors (16%) and scientists (20%) as sources of information on health and science. Misinformation also carries an emotional toll: 83% of all Americans report feeling angry when encountering false or misleading information about science and health and 82% worry about their own well-being or the well-being of their families.

    Despite these challenges, the data confirms the need for innovation to improve lives, with the majority of Americans across the political spectrum respecting scientists and agreeing rigorous science is necessary for continued human progress – a rare bipartisan consensus in a divided world.

    “This is more than just busy social feeds full of click-bait headlines when half of young adults are scrolling for their health information,” said John Gerzema, CEO of The Harris Poll. “This growing paradox is going to have real life health impacts if a fifth of young people continue to distrust doctors and scientists as legitimate sources.”

    Key findings from the report, Science Under Siege, include:

    • First, the Good News. There’s a Bipartisan Consensus on Trust in Science: Despite deep political divides, a remarkable 88% of Republicans and 92% of Democrats agree that rigorous science is necessary for continued human progress. This shared value is rooted in a deep respect for the scientific community; there is overwhelming agreement that scientists in the US today improve people’s quality of life (80% of Republicans and 90% of Democrats). Furthermore, 90% of Republicans and 92% of Democrats believe the US should play a leading role in global scientific research.

    • The Misinformation Paradox: 80% of Americans blame social media platforms for the spread of false or misleading information about science and health, and 75% are concerned about online content creators actively attacking or undermining scientific research and expertise. Yet, social media (32%) is the top primary source for health and science information, outpacing TV news (25%), newspapers/news websites/news apps (13%), AI (7%), government agencies (6%), and non-governmental organizations (2%).

    • A Generational Trust Gap: The survey found that 51% of young adults (ages 18-34) use social media as their primary source for science and health information. Nearly half of young adults blame doctors (48%) and scientists (43%) for providing false or misleading information, and about 1-in-5 distrust these traditional experts.

    • The Emotional Toll: Nearly 9-in-10 Americans (88%) are concerned with false or misleading information about science and health in the media and online. Large majorities of Americans are feeling angry (83%) and are worried about their well-being and the well-being of their families (82%) when encountering such information.

    • Anxiety Over US Science Leadership: Americans want to lead on science, but few actually believe the US is leading. Only 19% believe the US currently leads China in scientific research, while 33% believe the US is falling behind. If the government cannot fund scientific research, Americans primarily point to businesses (23%) and non-profits (19%) to step in.

    “We’ve uncovered a hidden consensus,” said John Gerzema, CEO of The Harris Poll. “Despite a fractured delivery of information, a shared belief in the value of science has rare unity across party lines.”

    Ultimately, the findings of “Science Under Siege” suggest that while the impacts of misinformation are alarming, Americans remain remarkably united in their support for science and its impacts for today and the future. The data reflects clear public support for science as an essential engine for securing the nation’s future progress.

  • Protagonist Therapeutics Announces U.S. FDA Approval of ICOTYDE(TM) (icotrokinra) for the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

    Protagonist Therapeutics Announces U.S. FDA Approval of ICOTYDE(TM) (icotrokinra) for the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

    ICOTYDE is the first and only IL-23R targeted oral peptide that delivers complete skin clearance and a favorable safety profile in a once-daily pill

    Approval supported by four phase 3 studies that met all primary endpoints and demonstrated a favorable safety profile in 2,500 patients

    $50 million milestone payment triggered by FDA approval; Protagonist is eligible to receive 6 – 10% royalties on sales and up to $580 million in future milestone payments

    Webcast and conference call to be held at 8:30 am ET on March 18

    NEWARK, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 18, 2026 / Protagonist Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:PTGX) (“Protagonist” or “the Company”) announced today that Johnson & Johnson received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for ICOTYDE (icotrokinra), an interleukin-23 (IL-23) receptor antagonist for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 40 kg who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. ICOTYDE is the first and only targeted oral peptide that precisely blocks the IL-23 receptor.

    ICOTYDE will be commercialized by Johnson & Johnson under the license and collaboration agreement established in 2017 between Protagonist and Janssen Biotech, Inc., a Johnson & Johnson company. ICOTYDE was jointly discovered by Protagonist and Johnson & Johnson scientists, with Protagonist having primary responsibility for the development of ICOTYDE through Phase 1, and Johnson & Johnson assuming responsibility for further development and commercialization.

    FDA approval of ICOTYDE triggers a $50 million milestone payment to Protagonist. Protagonist is eligible to receive up to $580 million in potential additional regulatory and sales milestone payments, as well as tiered royalties ranging from 6% to 10% on global net sales, corresponding to 7.25% on a weighted-average basis at $4 billion in annual sales, with the top royalty tier of 10% applying to sales above $4 billion.

    “ICOTYDE offers a novel plaque psoriasis treatment that combines the established efficacy and safety of IL-23 pathway blockade with the convenience of a once-daily oral pill. The FDA approval of ICOTYDE reflects a successful culmination of years of groundbreaking research and clinical development that began over 13 years ago in our laboratories and demonstrates the strength of our peptide technology platform to generate innovative therapies,” said Dinesh V. Patel, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Protagonist Therapeutics. “I am incredibly proud of our team’s dedication and commitment to addressing unmet medical needs and making a meaningful difference in the lives of patients.”

    “I would also like to congratulate Johnson & Johnson for maintaining a productive and seamless collaboration ongoing since 2017 as this novel medicine was advanced from discovery through development and finally to FDA approval,” Patel continued. “We look forward to results from ongoing clinical studies evaluating ICOTYDE in additional IL-23-driven diseases, including psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s disease. With the pending FDA decision for rusfertide this year, and the financial resources for accelerating pipeline investment, we’re confident this is the beginning of a multi-year product-driven growth cycle for Protagonist Therapeutics.”

    ICOTYDE was developed using Protagonist’s proprietary peptide technology platform. The Company continues to invest in its discovery engine and development pipeline, with multiple programs moving towards proof-of-concept trials designed to produce therapeutics with clinically relevant competitive differentiation.

    Clinical evidence summary
    ICOTYDE met all primary endpoints and demonstrated a favorable safety profile across four Phase 3 studies including 2,500 patients. The approval is based on an unprecedented body of evidence from the ICONIC clinical development program, which simultaneously evaluated ICOTYDE in adults and adolescents, high impact sites such as scalp and genital PsO, and in duplicate head-to-head trials versus an active comparator. In the head-to-head studies, approximately 70% of patients achieved clear or almost clear skin (IGA 0/1) and 55% of patients achieved a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI)90 response at Week 16. Rates of adverse reactions for ICOTYDE treated patients were within 1.1% of placebo through Week 16 and no new safety signals were identified through Week 52.

    Additional studies underway in other disease areas include: ICONIC-PsA 1 (NCT06878404) and ICONIC-PsA 2 (NCT06807424) in active psoriatic arthritis; ICONIC-UC (NCT071196748) in moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis; and ICONIC-CD (NCT7196722) in moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease.

    Unmet need in moderate to severe plaque psoriasis
    Psoriasis affects more than eight million Americans, impacting physical comfort and quality of life, especially when lesions are on visible or sensitive areas. For many with moderate to severe disease, targeted systemic treatments are key. This aligns with International Psoriasis Council guidance to transition to systemic therapy if two cycles of topical medications applied for four weeks fail to bring meaningful improvement.

    About ICOTYDE™ (icotrokinra)
    ICOTYDE is the first and only targeted oral peptide designed to precisely block the IL-23 receptor, which underpins the inflammatory response in moderate to severe plaque PsO. ICOTYDE binds to the IL-23 receptor with high affinity and demonstrated potent inhibition of IL-23 signaling in human T cells. Clinical significance of these findings are unknown.

    ICOTYDE is currently approved in the U.S. for the treatment of adults, and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 40 kg, with moderate to severe plaque PsO who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. Patients on ICOTYDE take one pill, once a day with water upon waking, 30 minutes prior to eating food.

    ICOTYDE is also currently in Phase 3 studies for active psoriatic arthritis, moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis and moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease.

    FullICOTYDE prescribing information will be available on the ICOTYDE website.

    About Plaque Psoriasis
    Plaque psoriasis (PsO) is a chronic immune-mediated disease resulting in overproduction of skin cells, which causes inflamed, scaly plaques that may be itchy or painful. It is estimated that 8 million Americans and more than 125 million people worldwide live with the disease. Nearly one-quarter of all people with plaque PsO have cases that are considered moderate to severe. On Caucasian skin, plaques typically appear as raised, red patches covered with a silvery white buildup of dead skin cells or scale. On skin of color, the plaques may appear darker and thicker, and more of a purple, gray, or dark brown color. Plaques can appear anywhere on the body, although they most often appear on the scalp, knees, elbows, and torso. Living with plaque PsO can be a challenge and impact life beyond a person’s physical health, including emotional health, relationships, and handling the stressors of life. Psoriasis on highly visible areas of the body or sensitive skin, such as the scalp, hands, feet, and genitals, can have an increased negative impact on quality of life.

    About Protagonist
    Protagonist Therapeutics is a discovery through late-stage development biopharmaceutical company. The Company’s proprietary peptide technology platform enables de novo discovery of peptide therapeutics.

    Forward Looking Statements

    This press release and any accompanying documents, contain “forward-looking statements” which may describe strategies, goals, outlooks or other non-historical matters, or projected revenues, income, returns or other financial measures, that may include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “likely,” or “may” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

    In addition to those factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and on our Current Reports on Form 8-K, under “Risk Factors”, among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from past and projected future results are the following: fluctuations in demand for our products and services, competing technological developments, issues relating to research and development, the availability of incentives, rebates, and tax benefits relating to our products and services, changes in the regulatory environment relating to our products and services, integration of acquired business operations, and the ability to obtain financing on favorable terms to fund existing operations and anticipated growth.

    In addition to GAAP financial measures, this press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA which excludes certain expenses as described in the presentation. We use Adjusted EBITDA as an internal measure of business operating performance and believe that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of our current business and enables investors to better understand and evaluate our historical and prospective operating performance by eliminating items that vary from period to period without correlation to our core operating performance and highlights trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures.

    (1) Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to reporting net income, a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) measure, this news release contains information about Adjusted EBITDA (net income (loss) attributable to Tecogen Inc adjusted for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, unrealized gain or loss on investment securities, goodwill impairment charges and other non-cash non-recurring charges including abandonment of certain intangible assets), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to view its performance in a manner similar to the methods used by management and provides additional insight into its operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated through the application of GAAP. Accordingly, it should not be considered as a substitute for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. The use of any non-GAAP measure may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.

    A New Peer-Reviewed Report Highlights the Reality Facing Some Couples and the Information Your Infertility Doctor May Not Be Telling You

    According to data from a new peer-reviewed, real-world study, the “standard” Semen Analysis test can come back “normal” and still miss problems that affect a couple’s chances of getting pregnant.

    SALT LAKE CITY, UT / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / According to Path Fertility, a newly published, peer-reviewed study in the Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics reports that a routine Semen Analysis can return “normal” results while still missing sperm-quality issues that may affect whether some common fertility treatments work.

    As a result, this reality about the “Standard of Care” Semen Analysis tests used by most fertility clinics and doctors belies the emerging data that such tests were not designed to provide all the information needed to make informed decisions, says Andy Olson, Path Fertility’s CEO and Co-Founder.

    “This new study reinforces what so many couples experience firsthand: a ‘normal’ Semen Analysis doesn’t always come with all the answers,” Olson said. “In fact, our review of the clinical data shows that up to 25% of men with a ‘normal’ Semen Analysis result have sperm that are incapable of producing a healthy pregnancy without intervention via advanced fertility techniques.”

    As shown in the JARG article, the study analyzed outcomes from 537 couples treated at 10 U.S. fertility clinics and evaluated results from an epigenetic sperm-quality test alongside treatment outcomes.

    In the study’s real-world dataset, researchers reported a clear pattern: when men had an Abnormal result on the epigenetic sperm-quality test, no pregnancies were recorded from intrauterine insemination (placing prepared sperm into the uterus around the time of ovulation) in the outcomes captured.

    By contrast, outcomes for in vitro fertilization (a process where eggs are retrieved and fertilized in a lab) using intracytoplasmic sperm injection (a common technique where a clinician injects a single sperm into an egg to help fertilization occur) did not show a meaningful difference based on the epigenetic result.

    “Let me be clear: this does not mean fertility doctors are doing anything wrong,” added Kristin Brogaard, Ph.D., Path Fertility’s Chief Science Officer and Co-Founder. “Semen Analysis is the accepted Standard of Care in addressing infertility issues, and it provides important information about sperm count, movement, and shape.

    “The challenge, however, is that the Semen Analysis test was not designed to directly measure how well sperm function in the steps required for conception. We believe that couples deserve clear information so they can have better conversations with their clinicians about what to try next.”

    What Semen Analysis Can Show and What it Cannot

    A Semen Analysis is widely used in fertility care because it helps clinicians assess basic sperm parameters, including how many sperm are present, how they move, and how they look.

    But a Semen Analysis does not directly answer the question most couples care about the most:

    Can these sperm successfully do the work required to create a pregnancy, especially with less-invasive treatments like intrauterine insemination?

    In fact, most fertility professionals acknowledge that some sperm can appear “normal” with a Semen Analysis test while still struggling with key functions required for conception, including:

    • Finding the egg,

    • Binding to the egg,

    • Penetrating the egg, and

    • Fertilizing the egg.

    What the JARG Study Evaluated, in Plain English

    The JARG study focused on a sperm test based on epigenetics, which is a way scientists study chemical markers that help regulate how genes behave. Epigenetics do not change DNA itself. In fact, in sperm, these markers can reflect whether sperm are more or less likely to function as needed for conception.

    The JARG report follows two additional peer-reviewed studies published in 2023 in F&S Science and in Frontiers in Genetics, respectively, which align with the JARG report’s central takeaway – that Semen Analysis alone may miss important sperm-quality factors in some couples.

    VIDEO CAPTION – Path Fertility’s “SpermQT vs. Standard Semen Analysis: What’s the Difference?” video, which can be found on YouTube here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQDm7hngzBk.

    SpermQT, offered by Path Fertility, is designed to complement Semen Analysis by adding this additional layer of information about sperm quality and function.

    Why this Matters for Couples Struggling with Infertility

    Many couples spend months or years cycling through uncertainty after being told that tests look “normal,” even when pregnancy does not happen.

    The takeaway for mainstream readers is straightforward: a normal Semen Analysis result is not always the end of the male-fertility conversation.

    This new JARG study adds real-world evidence that additional sperm-quality information may help couples and clinicians set expectations earlier, particularly when deciding whether to keep trying intrauterine insemination or consider moving sooner to more advanced approaches such as in vitro fertilization.

    Responsible Interpretation

    This JARG study reports real-world associations across clinics and treatments, but it does not tell any individual couple what they should do.

    Patients should discuss testing and treatment options with a qualified clinician who can consider the full medical picture of both partners.

    About Path Fertility and SpermQT

    Path Fertility is focused on raising the standard of care in male fertility by providing deeper insight into sperm quality and function. SpermQT is a sperm quality test based on epigenetic DNA-markers and is designed to complement Semen Analysis by adding information related to sperm function.

  • Path Fertility Releases its SpermQT Facts Sheet

    Path Fertility Releases its SpermQT Facts Sheet

    SALT LAKE CITY, UT / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / Path FertilityTM, an epigenetics-driven fertility technology company, today unveiled its SpermQTTM Facts Sheet, a copy of which is embedded below within this news release.

    BEGINNING OF Path Fertility’s SpermQT Facts Sheet.

    SpermQTIntroduction

    SpermQT is a clinically validated epigenetic sperm quality test from Path Fertility designed to help answer a practical question in fertility care: Are sperm likely to function well enough to support pregnancy, even when Semen Analysis results look “Normal”?

    Traditional Semen Analysis testing is still the “Standard of Care” in fertility circles. It measures sperm count, movement, and shape. Conversely, SpermQT adds an additional layer of insight by analyzing sperm DNA methylation patterns associated with sperm function, i.e., the presence of certain DNA abnormalities in sperm.

    The Problem Addressed

    Many couples spend months making decisions based on incomplete information about male fertility. Common patterns include:

    • Semen Analysis comes back “Normal,” but pregnancy still does not happen;

    • A couple is labeled “unexplained infertility” and treatment escalates without more clear male-factor insights;

    • Couples repeat time-consuming cycles and procedures without better diagnostics to guide next steps; and

    • Decisions around intrauterine insemination (IUI) are made with limited ability to predict success.

    PHOTO CAPTION: SpermQT overview page from Path Fertility. March 2026

    Couples that Can Benefit from SpermQT

    SpermQT is especially relevant for:

    • Couples exploring fertility options that want better clarity earlier in the process;

    • Couples diagnosed with unexplained infertility, including cases with “Normal” Semen Analysis results;

    • Couples considering intrauterine insemination (IUI), a procedure where prepared sperm is placed into the uterus during ovulation;

    • Couples that need clearer guidance on what to do after experiencing failed IUIs; and

    • Healthcare professionals and providers seeking a more complete initial male fertility workup beyond Semen Analysis alone.

    What SpermQT Measures

    SpermQT analyzes epigenetic patterns (DNA methylation) in sperm. These patterns are associated with the biological steps sperm must complete to support pregnancy, often described as:

    • Find an egg,

    • Bind to an egg,

    • Penetrate an egg, and

    • Fertilize an egg.

    SpermQT evaluates DNA methylation dysregulation across 1,200+ genes linked to sperm function.

    VIDEO CAPTION – Path Fertility’sSpermQT: A NEW KIND OF SPERM TEST” video, also found on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHvFUEBctTs.

    SpermQT Test Results

    SpermQT results are delivered in three categories:

    • Excellent

    • Normal

    • Abnormal

    Key Takeaways, in Plain English

    • SpermQT is designed to add functional insight that Semen Analysis does not measure.

    • An Abnormal SpermQT result can provide a signal that sperm function may be contributing to infertility, even when Semen Analysis results are listed as “Normal.”

    • SpermQT is positioned as an early, complementary test to help guide decision-making around IUI planning and next-step conversations.

    Key Clinical Insights

    A review of the clinical data shows that SpermQT is positioned to help in three specific ways –

    1. Prediction for IUI planning:
      Published clinical data reports statistically significant differences in pregnancy and live birth outcomes across SpermQT result tiers in IUI settings.

    2. Identifying “hidden” male-factor risk missed by Semen Analysis tests:
      Path Fertility states that many Abnormal SpermQT results occur in men whose semen parameters appear normal on Semen Analysis, including the commonly cited “4 out of 5” framing.

    3. IVF with ICSI context:
      Published findings suggest that in certain datasets, IVF with ICSI may reduce or overcome outcome differences associated with Abnormal SpermQT results.

    • In Vitro Fertilization (IVF): eggs are retrieved and fertilized in a lab, then an embryo is transferred to the uterus.

    • Conversely, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI): a technique used with IVF where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg.

    When to Use SpermQT (Practical Guidance)

    Consider SpermQT when:

    • Semen Analysis results are Normal but pregnancy is not happening;

    • IUIs have failed and you need more insight into whether to continue IUI or move forward;

    • Clearer guidance is needed before investing time and money into IUI cycles; and

    • A more complete male-factor picture is desired earlier in the fertility workup.

    {NOTE: SpermQT is not a replacement for Semen Analysis. It is intended to complement the traditional “Standard of Care” available via traditional Semen Analysis with functional insights.}

    How It Works

    Sample collected, followed by

    → Lab analysis of sperm DNA methylation patterns
    → SpermQT tier result (Excellent, Normal, Abnormal)
    → Patient and provider use results to inform next steps, including IUI planning and whether IVF options should be discussed

    SpermQT Ordering and Pricing

    SpermQT is physician ordered, with samples collected at home or in a clinic, with results typically available within 2 weeks.

    • Cash-pay Price: $385

    • With Semen Analysis bundle: $499

    {NOTE: Many organizations cover the cost of SpermQT tests through their insurance/benefits programs. Couples faced with infertility challenges are encouraged to check with their insurance providers and/or Human Resources representative(s) to learn more.}

  • TGI’s AdBuzz Presents: Interview of Alina Bonsell Message To Manhattan: “We Win Together”

    Senate Candidate Challenges Incumbent in District 28 with Focus on Safety and Accountability

    NEW YORK, NY AND MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / March 15, 2026 / TGI Group (OTC:TSPG), a leader in sustainable technology and innovative development, is pleased to announce that its specialized digital marketing subsidiary, AdBuzz, on behalf of Alina Bonsell, candidate for New York State Senate in District 28. Representing Manhattan’s East Side, Bonsell joins a growing movement of leaders focused on safety, economic recovery, and accountable governance.

    “‘We win together’ isn’t just a slogan,” says Bonsell. “At the end of the day, we all want the same basic things: safe streets, protected communities, opportunity for our families, and leadership that actually listens.”

    In Manhattan politics, races are often framed through party labels. But New York State Senate candidate Alina Bonsell, who is challenging longtime incumbent Liz Krueger in District 28, says voters on the East Side are thinking about something much simpler.

    District 28 covers Manhattan’s East Side, Central Park South, and Roosevelt Island neighborhoods that Bonsell says represent some of the very best of New York.

    “When communities are strong and safe, this part of Manhattan thrives,” she says. “We have some of the best schools, hospitals, and cultural institutions anywhere in the world. This district should be leading the way in unity.”

    For Bonsell, that means putting her neighborhood first, community first, East Side first.

    “Leadership should reflect the people who live here,” she says. “Right now, many residents feel that leadership in Albany has failed them miserably when it comes to protecting the character and safety of our neighborhoods.”

    Before entering politics, Bonsell spent more than fifteen years working in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. She says that experience taught her how complex systems work and how policy decisions affect everyday life.

    “In healthcare and business, outcomes matter,” she says. “You can’t hide behind ideology. Policies either help people or they don’t.”

    Public safety is at the center of Bonsell’s campaign.

    “Safety is not partisan,” she says. “Families want their children walking to school safely. Seniors want to feel comfortable in their neighborhoods. Businesses want streets where customers feel secure.”

    Economic policy is another major focus.

    “Small businesses are the lifeblood of Manhattan neighborhoods,” Bonsell says. “They want less bureaucracy, fair terms, and a real chance to thrive and succeed.”

    Her platform also includes targeted tax relief for young adults starting their careers, working parents, and seniors, groups she says are increasingly squeezed by New York’s cost of living.

    “Government should reward hard work, not penalize success,” she says.

    Bonsell has also been outspoken about policies she believes push the city in the wrong direction.

    “When I talk about policies that penalize success, I’m referring to the socialist direction from Mayor Mamdani that’s being imposed on New Yorkers,” she says. “Many residents feel these ideas are being pushed without enough concern for how they affect neighborhoods and opportunity.”

    Despite running as a Republican in a heavily Democratic district, Bonsell insists the campaign is about broader principles.

    “This race isn’t about left versus right,” she says. “It’s about whether our communities are safe, our small businesses can survive, and if our children will have the same opportunities we had.”

    Her campaign slogan “We Win Together” captures a united message that focuses on safety, opportunity, and strong neighborhoods so everyone benefits.

    About Alina Bonsell:

    Alina Bonsell is a healthcare professional and community advocate running for New York State Senate in District 28. Her campaign is focused on restoring safety, transparency, and economic vitality to Manhattan’s East Side.

  • Tunkillia ‘Phase 2’ Resource Upgrade Drilling Begins

    HIGHLIGHTS

    • May 2025 Optimised Scoping Study (OSS) outlined a compelling Tunkillia development project:[1]

      • Annual production: ~120,000oz gold and ~250,000oz silver

      • Total LoM operating cash: ~A$2.7 billion (unlevered, pre-tax)

      • Net Present Value (NPV7.5%): ~A$1.4 billion (unlevered, pre-tax)

      • Internal Rate of Return (IRR): ~73.2% (unlevered, pre-tax); and

      • Payback period: ~0.8 years (unlevered, pre-tax)

    • Barton expediting Tunkillia toward Mining Lease (ML) application, with AUD gold and silver prices now over $2,000/oz and $60/oz higher (respectively) than used for OSS revenue estimates1

    • 18,900m ‘Phase 1′ reverse circulation (RC) Resource upgrade drilling infilled high value S1 / S2 pit areas with broad high-grade intersections, supporting rapid payback in early ‘Starter pit’2; ~30,000m ‘Phase 2′ RC upgrade drilling now underway targeting balance of optimised open pits;

    • Phase 2 RC drilling a key step to support JORC (2012) Mineral Resource upgrades and target JORC (2012) Ore Reserves, a pre-feasibility study (PFS), and an ML application by end of 2026

    ADELAIDE, AU / ACCESS Newswire / March 15, 2026 / Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD)(OTCQB:BGDFF)(FRA:BGD3) (Barton or Company) is pleased to announce the start of ‘Phase 2′ JORC (2012) Mineral Resource upgrade drilling at its South Australian Tunkillia Gold Project (Tunkillia). Strike Drilling has been engaged to complete a program totalling ~30,000m.

    Tunkillia’s Phase 2 RC upgrade drilling follows a successful ‘Phase 1’ program which infilled the high-value early ‘S1’ and ‘S2′ pit areas, modelled to produce ~$1.3 billion operating profit during the first 2.5 years of operation, with broad, high-grade intersections. Barton is targeting conversion of all of Tunkillia’s OSS modelled open pit mineralisation to JORC (2012) ‘Measured’ and ‘Indicated’ categories to accelerate financing and development.2

    Full details can be accessed in the complete announcement on the ASX website or directly by clicking here.

    Commenting on Tunkillia’s ongoing development drilling programs, Barton MD Alexander Scanlon said:

    “The Tunkillia OSS demonstrated the financial and capital leverage available to large-scale bulk processing operations, with the major advantage of a higher-grade ‘Starter Pit’ that can pay back development costs 2x over in the first year – assuming A$5,000/oz gold and A$50/oz silver prices. At current gold and silver prices, Tunkillia would be modelled to produce over $1 billion operating profit in the first year, and over $2 billion operating profit in the first two years.

    “Our recent ‘Phase 1’ Resource upgrade drilling results further confirmed the mineralisation behind these compelling economics; we are therefore now executing the balance of Tunkillia development drilling programs on an expedited timeline, targeting declared JORC Ore Reserves, a robust PFS, and a Mining Lease application by the end of 2026.

    “Following the submission of our Mining Lease application, we will expedite Tunkillia’s project finance discussions and work with all key stakeholders including the South Australian Government to bring Tunkillia online as soon as possible. This project can generate substantial economic benefits for Barton and all of our stakeholders, including the State.”

    Network 1 Reports 2025 Year End Financial Results

    NEW CANAAN, CT / ACCESS Newswire / March 13, 2026 / Network‑1 Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American:NTIP) (“Network‑1”), a company specializing in the acquisition, development, licensing and monetization of its intellectual property assets, today announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025.

    Network‑1 had revenue of $150,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to revenue of $100,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Revenue in both 2025 and 2024 was from settlement agreements in litigations involving Network‑1’s Remote Power Patent. Network‑1’s operating expenses decreased by $265,000 in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to decreased professional fees and general and administrative expenses.

    Interest and dividend income for 2025 was $1,844,000 as compared to $1,897,000 for 2024. In addition, in 2025 Network‑1 recorded realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities of $277,000 as compared to $177,000 in 2024.

    Network‑1 reported a net loss of $2,420,000 or $0.11 per share, basic and diluted, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a net loss of $3,034,000 or $0.13 per share, basic and diluted, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Included in net loss is Network‑1’s share of the net loss of its equity method investee, ILiAD Biotechnologies, of $1,603,000 and $1,912,000 for the years ended 2025 and 2024, respectively.

    In June 2025, Network-1 commenced patent litigation against Samsung Electronics Co., LTD and Samsung Electronics America, Inc.(collectively, “Samsung”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas for infringement of certain patents in its M2M/IoT Patent Portfolio. The lawsuit alleges that Samsung infringes the asserted patents by supporting certain eSIM (embedded Subscriber Identification Module) and 5G technologies in its mobile devices, including its Galaxy smartphones, watches and tablets. A trial date has been scheduled for June 2027.

    In September 2025, Network-1 commenced patent litigation on behalf of HFT Solutions, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Network-1, against Optiver US LLC and Optiver Trading US LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, for infringement of certain patents in our HFT Patent Portfolio. A trial date has been scheduled for June 2027. The patents being asserted in this case are the same patents being asserted in our patent infringement cases against Citadel Securities, LLC and Jump Trading, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois brought in December 2024.

    On February 5, 2026, ILiAD Biotechnologies, Inc. completed a $115,000,000 preferred stock financing. The financing was led by RA Capital Management with participation from new investors Janus Henderson Investors and BNP Paribas Asset Management Alts, as well as existing investors including a multi-national pharmaceutical company and AI Life Sciences.Following the closing of the financing, Network-1 owned approximately3.1% of the outstanding shares on a non-fully diluted basis and approximately 2.5% of the outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis. As a result of the closing of the financing and the conversion to a corporation, Network-1 will no longer account for its investment in ILiAD using the equity method of accounting and will use the fair value method of accounting.

    At December 31, 2025, Network‑1’s principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $36,869,000 and working capital of $36,336,000. Management believes that based on Network‑1’s current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities positions, Network‑1 will have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations for the foreseeable future.

    Network‑1’s dividend policy consists of semi‑annual cash dividends of $0.05 per share ($0.10 per share annually) which have been paid in March and September of each year. In 2025, Network‑1 continued to declare and pay dividends consistent with its dividend policy. Network‑1’s dividend policy undergoes a periodic review by its Board of Directors and is subject to change at any time depending upon Network‑1’s earnings, financial requirements and other factors existing at the time.

    In June 2025, the Board of Directors of Network-1 authorized an extension and increase of its share repurchase program (“Share Repurchase Program”) to repurchase up to $5,000,000 of shares of its common stock over the subsequent 24 month period. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Network‑1 repurchased an aggregate of 212,262 shares of its common stock at a cost of approximately $286,617 (exclusive of commissions) or an average price per share of $1.35. Since inception of its Share Repurchase Program (August 2011) to December 31, 2025, Network‑1 has repurchased an aggregate of 10,586,494 shares of its common stock at a cost of approximately $20,269,971 (exclusive of commissions). Combined with the approximately $24,300,000 in dividends paid beginning in 2010 through December 31, 2025, Network‑1 has returned, through such dividends and share repurchases, in excess of $44,500,000 to its shareholders.
