Using a smartphone, tablet or laptop at bedtime may be staving off sleep, according to Harvard Medical School scientists, who have found specific wavelengths of light can suppress the slumber-inducing hormone melatonin in the brain.

15 million Americans suffer from it. Its the leading cause of blindness in this country. Macular degeneration usually strikes those over 50. Now there is some progress in treatment. Its not a cure, but a tool thats helping patients see again.

Being pulled into the world of a gripping novel can trigger actual, measurable changes in the brain that linger for at least five days after reading, scientists have said.

A hand-held bio pen developed in Wollongong will allow surgeons to draw regenerating bone material directly on to the body. The development enables customised implants to be created at the time of surgery, eliminating the need to harvest cartilage and grow it for weeks in a lab as a replacement for damaged or diseased material.

Eleven people paralyzed from the neck down rapidly learned to use the tongue device to pilot their wheelchairs and operate a computer.

Scientists at the RIC have developed a procedure, targeted muscle reinnervation (TMI), which reassigns nerves that controlled arms and hands to pectoral muscles. After surgery, patients are fitted with a prosthetic arm and are given therapy to strengthen their core muscles and training on how to use the arms. Once these nerves are reassigned, people with upper arm amputations are able control their prosthetic devices by merely thinking about the action they want to perform.

Children and teenagers who spend lots of time in front of screens - especially TVs - tend to gain more weight as they age, according to a new study. The findings are consistent with research suggesting all that idle sitting and exposure to advertisements may fuel poor eating habits. Many parents believe their children are getting a reasonable amount of recreational screen time, Mark Tremblay said. But most U.S. and Canadian kids exceed the recommended two-hour maximum per day.

Women who drank the most sugary drinks more than four servings per week had a 78% greater risk of developing estrogen-dependent type I endometrial cancer than women who drank none. Women who were older, had higher body mass index (BMI), a history of diabetes, later menopause, and any type of estrogen therapy also had a greater risk of developing endometrial cancer, which lines up with earlier research. But the connection between sugary drinks and estrogen-dependent endometrial cancer was there even regardless of body weight.

Researchers at Harvard and Indiana University found that people who ate an average of one serving of nuts per day had a 20 percent lower risk of death from several common health problems compared to those who never ate nuts... Importantly, those who consumed nuts were also those who tended to be less obese, less likely to smoke, more likely to exercise, and more likely to eat fruits and vegetables all healthy factors that could contribute to longer life in and of themselves. However, even after taking all of these factors into account as well as others like age, race and family history the researchers still found that those who ate nuts came out on top when it came to early death due to cancer, heart disease, and lung disease.

Todays kids cant keep up with their parents. An analysis of studies on millions of children around the world finds they dont run as fast or as far as their parents did when they were young.

Some vegetable oils previously believed to offer health benefits may in fact increase the risk of heart disease, says a new Canadian report.

For the first time, scientists are able to engineer any part of the human genome with extreme precision using a revolutionary new technique called Crispr. The landmark development means it is now possible to make the most accurate and detailed alterations to any specific position on the DNA of the 23 pairs of human chromosomes without introducing unintended mutations or flaws, scientists said. The technique is so accurate that scientists believe it will soon be used in gene-therapy trials on humans to treat incurable viruses such as HIV or currently untreatable genetic disorders such as Huntingtons disease. It might also be used controversially to correct gene defects in human IVF embryos, scientists said.

Eating disorders in male teenagers are more common than previously thought. A new study by researchers at Boston Childrens Hospital has found that roughly 18 percent of teen males have extreme concerns about their weight and physique, raising their risk to start engaging in risky behaviors.

Researchers say they have made a discovery that may allow them to eradicate Alzheimers disease, Parkinsons disease and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease using light therapy. Swedish and Polish scientists have discovered it is possible to distinguish clumps of the proteins believed to cause the diseases from the well-functioning proteins in the body by using a laser imaging technique.
