Mark Prausnitz, Ph.D., of the Georgia Institute of Technology, talks about the potential advantages of using microneedle patches instead of traditional hypodermic needles for annual flu vaccination. Besides being nearly painless to use, the microneedle patches are simple enough for patients to apply themselves, which may encourage more people to get immunized.
NIBIB's 60 Seconds of Science explains what is happening in the body when it undergoes an MRI.

Dr. Paul Thompson discusses the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI), an imaging project that attempts to discover the best predictors and measures of Alzheimer's Disease. The hope is that a treatment or cure could be developed by better understanding what happens to the brain when it is diseased. He also discusses non-medical interventions that have been shown to help protect against Alzheimer's.

In today's accelerated world, if you don’t have a fast website, people will bounce faster than you can say “conversions.” It’s often hard to diagnose what is causing your website to run slower than it should.Your problem could be anything from code that’s written poorly to images or large page elements.
2020 was the year when India first witnessed the community outbreak of the SARS-COV-2 virus AKA COVID-19. Though, around late 2020, the dropping number of fresh COVID-19 cases made us all believe we have finally won the battle & things will go back to normal by 2021 & our guards went down.
Little did we know the battle has just begun!
Interview with scientists at the NIH, Dr. Hari Shroff, Lab Chief of NIBIB's High Resolution Optical Imaging Lab and Dr. Andrew York.
Using a new kind of microscope they invented, Dr. Shroff and his team are able to film worm embryos as they form over the course of 14 hours. They are able to track neurons as the cells move through the embryo and hope that this work will eventually be able to teach them more about the development of life.
This #InternationalNursesDay lets join to express our gratitude towards healthcare workers and frontline warriors who are committed to provide us high quality care amidst the pandemic. Salute to their hard work and dedication.
At 1mg, improving customer experience at every touchpoint is of utmost importance. One of them is providing customers a seamless order delivery experience and a realistic view of the date and time of delivery. An accurate ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) not only leads to a better customer experience but also reduces the unnecessary load on the customer care team.
Research funded by the NIH at Rice University has resulted in a portable, fiber optic microscope that non-invasively characterizes and diagnoses precancerous and cancerous cells. Both low cost and battery-powered, this point-of-care device is ideally suited to low resource settings and facilitates immediate outpatient therapy.

Anaemia can cause a range of symptoms including fatigue, weakness, dizziness and drowsiness. Children and pregnant women are especially vulnerable, with an increased risk of maternal and child mortality. The prevalence of anaemia remains high globally, particularly in low-income settings, where a significant proportion of young children and women of childbearing age can be assumed to be anaemic. Iron deficiency anaemia has also been shown to affect cognitive and physical development in children and reduce productivity in adults.
A Cucumber a Day Keeps Health Problems Away | Dr Alan Mandell, DC
Cucumbers are rich in antioxidants that help to protect the cells in the body from the impact of oxidative stress, a process that has been linked to several different types of chronic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune, and cancer.
