| More career options may explain why fewer women pursue jobs in science and math Posted: 19 Mar 2013 11:44 AM PDT Women may be less likely to pursue careers in science and math because they have more career choices, not because they have less ability, according to a new study.  |
| High-carb intake in infancy has lifelong effects, study finds Posted: 19 Mar 2013 11:44 AM PDT Consumption of foods high in carbohydrates immediately after birth programs individuals for lifelong increased weight gain and obesity, an animal study has found, even if caloric intake is restricted in adulthood for a period of time.  |
| Conscientious people are more likely to have higher GPAs Posted: 19 Mar 2013 09:43 AM PDT Conscientious people are more likely to have higher grade point averages, according to new research.  |
| Brain-mapping increases understanding of alcohol's effects on first-year college students Posted: 19 Mar 2013 09:43 AM PDT Scientists have completed a first-of-its-kind longitudinal pilot study aimed at better understanding how the neural processes that underlie responses to alcohol-related cues change during students' first year of college.  |
| Sleep study reveals how the adolescent brain makes the transition to mature thinking Posted: 19 Mar 2013 07:27 AM PDT A new study conducted by monitoring the brain waves of sleeping adolescents has found that remarkable changes occur in the brain as it prunes away neuronal connections and makes the major transition from childhood to adulthood.  |
| Cushioned heel running shoes may alter adolescent biomechanics, performance Posted: 19 Mar 2013 06:14 AM PDT Many of today's running shoes feature a heavy cushioned heel. New research found that these shoes may alter an adolescent runner's biomechanics (the forces exerted by muscles and gravity on the skeletal structure) and diminish performance.  |
| Links between lifestyle and risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis Posted: 18 Mar 2013 07:51 AM PDT Researchers have found a link between several lifestyle factors and pre-existing conditions, including smoking cigarettes and diabetes, and an increased risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis.  |
| Uplifting music can boost mental capacity Posted: 18 Mar 2013 07:49 AM PDT Uplifting concertos from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons can boost mental alertness, according to new research.  |
