NIH Advisory Group Recommends Changes for Biomedical Research Workforce :: The National Institutes of Health (NIH) should make changes to workforce policies in order to promote the long-term sustainability of the biomedical research workforce, according to a new report by a government advisory group.

The goal of the study was to ensure “future US competitiveness and innovation in biomedical research by creating pathways through undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral training” that attract and retain the best scientists and prepare...

Want to get teens interested in math and science? Target their parents :: (Association for Psychological Science) Increasing the number of students interested in science, technology, engineering, and math - the STEM disciplines - is vital to national competitiveness in the global economy and to the development of a strong workforce. But the pipeline leading toward STEM careers begins leaking in high school, when students choose not to take advanced STEM courses. Now a new study goes beyond the classroom to examine the unique role that parents can play in promoting students' STEM motivation. (Source: EurekAlert! - Social and Behavioral Science)

With food safety bill, U.S. government will spend nearly $1 million per person to prevent food-borne illness deaths :: (NaturalNews) The recently-passed Food Safety Modernization Act, which was passed in order to prevent food-borne illness deaths in the USA, will cost $1.4 billion over the first five years. But nobody thinks about the economics of the issue. How many people are we going to save by spending this $1.4 billion, even assuming it works?To answer that question, let's look at the food illness fatality figures offered by the CDC:&bull; Out of the 5,000 food-borne illness deaths each year in the United States, only 1,809 are "attributable to foodborne transmission" according to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol5no5/mead.htm#Table%203).&bull; E.coli, which is often quoted in the big scare stories about food safety, only kills 78 people a year through food-borne transmission (52 plus 26, fro...

Investing in our future: White House honors Dr. T. Berry Brazelton :: Investing in our future means investing in our children.
That's the message that Boston Children's renowned pediatrician T.Berry Brazelton wants everyone to hear, loud and clear.

The Champions of Change program is part of President Obama's Winning the Future Initiative. If anyone has spent his life thinking about our future, it's Brazelton.
Along with guiding millions of parents in raising their children, Brazelton collaborated with Ed Zigler and Julius Richmond to create Head Start, a comprehensive early education program for low-income children that, as he says, gives "every child a chance to make the American dream come ...<div id="medworm"><p><b><i>MedWorm Message:</i></b> Get the very latest Swine Flu news via the MedWorm <b><a href="http://www.medworm.com/rss/search.php?qu=%2Bswine+%2B%28influenza+flu%29&t=Swine+Flu&f=infectiousdiseases&r=Any&o=d" target ="_self">Swine Flu RSS news feed</a></b> - updated hourly from thousands of authoritative health and news sources.</p></div>

Countering the Livestock‐Targeted Bioterrorism Threat and Responding with an Animal Health Safeguarding System :: SummaryAttacks against livestock and poultry using biological agents constitute a subtype of agroterrorism. These attacks are defined as the intentional introduction of an animal infectious disease to strike fear in people, damage a nation's economy and/or threaten social stability. Livestock bioterrorism is considered attractive to terrorists because biological agents for use against livestock or poultry are more readily available and difficult to monitor than biological agents for use against humans. In addition, an attack on animal husbandry can have enormous economic consequences, even without human casualties. Animal husbandry is vulnerable to livestock‐targeted bioterrorism because it is nearly impossible to secure all livestock animals, and compared with humans, livestock are le...

Joblessness and Symbolic Loss :: We live in a stressful society. We need to keep up with the hustle and bustle of everyday, as well as professional, life. Stress might feel more commonplace than a sense of peace.
Although there are several difficult, nationwide events that we are all currently adapting to, one of the most talked-about stressors in modern American culture is the dramatic rise in unemployment.
Current Trends
Joblessness is becoming more widespread in the United States. For example, in January 2001, the unemployment rate of individuals 16 years and older was 4.2 percent. By January 2011, this percentage more than doubled to 9.7 percent (Department of Labor, 2011). The situation seems to be improving in 2012.
A rapidly increasing unemployment rate can dramatically affect people who are out of work, as well as...
