Brain scans show specific neuronal response to junk food when sleep-restricted

Posted: 10 Jun 2012 12:14 PM PDT

The sight of unhealthy food during a period of sleep restriction activated reward centers in the brain less active than with adequate sleep, a new study using fMRI scans shows.

Bessie the Cow

Happy Sunday, everyone. Did you have a nice weekend? Anything new and fun in your lives? I found this cow at an arcade.

I know. Weird.

Did I tell you that I received an email from a coworker who asked me, “Laurie, are you okay? What has happened to you?” I can’t remember if I blogged about it. Apparently, this former coworker of mine just discovered the internets and found my blog. And he’s SHOCKED that I’m so vulgar and in a career death spiral.

It’s cute. I’ve been thinking about his email message all weekend because we often don’t know when our careers are over. We think that we are fully unemployable until one day we look up and say — Jesus, nobody wants to hire me and I’m out-of-touch with the modern day workforce.

Thankfully, I am 100% self-aware about my career. No death spiral here. Other people should be so lucky. Now pass the champagne.

I’m working on my blog posts for the week and I really wish I could write about the Latino vote, the big bank payoff in Madrid and how I really feel about Union Rags winning the Belmont Stakes. Instead, I’ll blog about boring HR and work-related stuff.

Thanks (in advance) for sticking around!

Enabling bioengineers to design new molecular machines for nanotechnology applications is one of the possible outcomes of a new study. Scientists have developed a new approach to visualize how proteins assemble, which may also significantly aid our understanding of diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, which are caused by errors in assembly.

Mapping volcanic heat on Jupiter's moon Io

A new study finds that the pattern of heat coming from volcanoes on Io's surface disposes of the generally-accepted model of internal heating. The heat pouring out of Io's hundreds of erupting volcanoes indicates a complex, multi-layer source. These results come from data collected by NASA spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
