Colleges crack down on parties to stem outbreaks

College administrators are clamping down on parties where students flout social distancing measures in an effort to prevent coronavirus outbreaks on campuses. “Every student must know that the parties and disregard for face masks, physical distancing and gathering size causing other universities to abandon in-person classes will not be tolerated at Vanderbilt,” said Vanderbilt University’s… Read More: Colleges crack down on parties to stem outbreaks »

Could Natural Lithium in Tap Water Help Stem Suicides?

In 1817, Johan August Arfwedson discovered lithium in the mineral petalite. It is also found in several different types of ore and makes up about 0.002% of the Earth’s crust. Up until the 1990s, the U.S. produced most of the lithium on the global market.1 The primary way the metal is used in industry is… Read More: Could Natural Lithium in Tap Water Help Stem Suicides? »

Human Sperm Stem Cells Grown in Lab, an Early Step Toward Infertility Treatment

Infertility affects one in seven men of reproductive age worldwide. One idea for treating male sterility is spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) therapy. In this approach, sperm stem cells in the testis are transferred to a test tube, cultured and nudged into becoming fully fledged sperm. However, a key bottleneck has been identifying just the right… Read More: Human Sperm Stem Cells Grown in Lab, an Early Step… »
