We all know that the holidays can cause stress and angst as we cook, shop, entertain and spend time with family and friends we may not see often. Michigan State University experts offer suggestions on navigating the holiday — from the economy and food prices to religion and spirituality to health and relationships.
A new survey from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine reveals that more than half of Americans (55%) say they are extremely or somewhat tired during the holiday season.
A research project co-led by researchers at the UNC School of Medicine and colleagues, will create an atlas of the cells in the nasal and oral cavities, throat, and lower airways of pediatric populations in unprecedented detail.
Vanderbilt University Medical Center has been approved for $7 million in research funding by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) to study the effect of breathing tube size on breathing, speaking and swallowing after critical illness.
Nuclear scientists used a new theoretical approach to calculate a value essential for unraveling the three-dimensional motion of quarks within a proton. The researchers obtained a significantly more accurate picture of these internal building blocks’ transverse motion. The work will aid in calculations of 3D motion of quarks and gluons in future collider experiments.
Twelve million light-years away lies the galactic masterpiece Messier 83, also known as the Southern Pinwheel Galaxy. Its swirling spiral arms display a high rate of star formation and have been host to six observed supernovae. This image was captured with the Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera, mounted on the U.S. National Science Foundation Víctor M. Blanco 4-meter Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile, a Program of NSF NOIRLab.
A 12 millones de años luz se encuentra la joya galáctica Messier 83, conocida también como la Galaxia del Molinillo Austral. Sus brazos espirales muestran una elevada tasa de formación estelar y además ya se han registrado seis supernovas observadas en ella. Esta detallada imagen se obtuvo en Chile con la Cámara de Energía Oscura del Departamento de Energía de los Estados Unidos, que se encuentra montada en el Telescopio de 4 metros Víctor M. Blanco, en Cerro Tololo, un Programa de NOIRLab de NSF.

NCCN hosts a Patient Advocacy Summit bringing together leading experts to promote strategies and best practices for improving cancer care, focused on practice and policy solutions for sharing accurate, evidence-based health information with patients and caregivers.
UAlbany researchers have developed a new method for fast-acting salmonella detection. The test employs a paper strip that changes color in the presence of the bacterial genome, enabling quick, easy and inexpensive screening for salmonella in food products.
The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) is pleased that Anthem has reversed course on its deeply flawed policy proposal to no longer pay for anesthesia care if the surgery or procedure goes beyond an arbitrary, Anthem-set time limit, regardless of how long the surgical procedure actually takes.
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has awarded $75 million to a consortium of leading global institutions, including the Pulte Institute for Global Development at the University of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs, to enhance the effectiveness of poverty alleviation programs through research.
It's a challenge to celebrate the holiday season with loved ones who have dementia. But Stephen Post, PhD, a bioethicist, has a message that could change your focus when visiting these loved ones this season: There are powerful lucid moments that occur with the deeply forgetful. Hold onto them. It’s worth the time.
A team of scientists has created a new shape-changing polymer that could transform how future soft materials are constructed.
