To combat the obesity epidemic, the National Institutes of Health is encouraging diverse scientific investigations through a new Strategic Plan for NIH Obesity Research.

In 2008, obesity-related medical costs were an estimated $147 billion. Government, nonprofit and community groups, businesses, ...

Researchers need to engage lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transginder populations in health studies

2011-04-02
WASHINGTON — Researchers need to proactively engage lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people in health studies and collect data on these populations to identify and better understand health conditions that affect them, says a new report from the Institute of Medicine. The scarcity of research yields an incomplete picture of LGBT health status and needs, which is further fragmented by the tendency to treat sexual and gender minorities as a single homogeneous group, said the committee that wrote the report.

Getting closer to a better biocontrol for garden pests

2011-04-02
This release is available in Spanish.

Novel nanowires boost fuel cell efficiency

Novel nanowires boost fuel cell efficiency
2011-04-02
New Haven, Conn.—Fuel cells have been touted as a cleaner solution to tomorrow's energy needs, with potential applications in everything from cars to computers. But one reason fuel cells aren't already more widespread is their lack of endurance. Over time, the catalysts used even in today's state-of-the-art fuels cells break down, inhibiting the chemical reaction that converts fuel into electricity. In addition, current technology relies on small particles coated with the catalyst; however, the particles' limited surface area means only a fraction of the catalyst is ...
