Smartphones and tablets are a good way to keep young children quiet and entertained, but a recent study suggests that babies and toddlers allowed too much screen time may go on to develop speech delays.
Study principal investigator Dr. Catherine Birken, a staff pediatrician and scientist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, says:
British researcher Madeleine Lancaster is growing human brains in her Cambridge University lab. A few hundred of them, in fact. That’s about 2 million neurons. [1]
No, this isn’t a Halloween gag. This sci-fi experiment is intended to help scientists understand disorders like autism and schizophrenia.
It’s not just Lancaster who is invested in growing human brains outside of the body. It’s a project being undertaken by scientists around the world.
A new study by Swiss researchers shows that drinking beer makes you happier, friendlier, less inhibited, and possibly even sexier. [1]
I’m betting that not many people are shocked to read this, but at least you can back up what you’ve always known with science.
What’s the number one threat to your success and happiness in life? It’s not unexpected life events, or even financial crisis. Instead, it comes down to others telling you that you can’t live your passion. It comes down to what I call ‘toxic relationships.’
I’ll never forget the story about the mother of a friend of mine, whose singing career was ruined by the toxic actions of one heckler. While she was, in fact, a beautiful singer, she relied heavily upon the opinions of others to tell her whether or not she was ‘good enough.’
Ladies – have your periods become irregular? Is stress getting harder to cope with? Would you rather take a nap than engage in sexual intimacy? If so, chances are you’ve entered a new passage in life known as perimenopause – the transition period between the fertility of youth and the end of fertility that is known as menopause.
