What Happens When Forest Elephants Are Wiped Out in an Ecosystem?
As go the elephants, so go the trees. That's the message of a new study published in the May 2013 issue of Forest Ecology and Management that found more than a dozen elephant-dependent tree species suffered catastrophic population declines in new plant growths after forest elephants were nearly extirpated from their ecosystems. The fruit-bearing trees all rely on forest elephants as their primary means of seed distribution, a process known as megafaunal dispersal syndrome.The study was conducted in Salonga National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a region where more than 98 percent of the forest elephants (...

End of the road for Kansas Spine Specialists?
Kansas Spine Specialists isn't talking, but some other sources tied to Wichita's health care industry tell the Wichita Business Journal the specialty practice is disbanding. The WBJ reports the practice, formerly Kansas Joint and Spine Institute, has been plagued by an exodus of physician departures over the past two years. The practice has four physicians remaining, but it appears some of them are in talks with other local orthopedic practices.

The challenges of objectivity: lessons from anatomy.
In the last post , we talked about objectivity as a scientific ideal aimed at building a reliable picture of what the world is actually like . We also noted that this goal travels closely with the notion of objectivity as what anyone applying the appropriate methodology could see . But, as we saw, it takes a great deal of scientific training to learn to see what anyone could see.The problem of how to see what is really there is not a new one for scientists. In her book The Scientific Renaissance: 1450-1630 [1], Marie Boas Hall describes how this issue presented itself to Renaissance anatomists. These anatomists endeavored ...

The Messy (and Risky) Ways That Governments Try to Manage Risks
The very concept of risk is tricky. To you and me, it means pretty much what the dictionary says...the probability that something bad might happen. And to us, the part of that definition that most influences how worried a risk makes us feel is the subjective 'bad' part, more than the objectively quantifiable likelihood. We are emotional survivalists more than we are probabilistic rationalists.But when it comes to government risk management policy making, shouldn't we want the probabilities to matter more and the emotions less? The goal of risk policy, after all, is to maximize protection of public and environmental health ...

Organic versus Conventional: A Scanner May Say Which Is Healthier
Are organic foods more nutritious than conventionally raised ones? Stanford University scientists cast doubt on that concept last year in a widely publicized report. But the gritty little secret is that whether your apples and spinach are organic or not, nutrient levels can vary dramatically depending on growing conditions, such as soil type and quality, temperature, and days of sun versus rain. As a consumer, you have no independent way of verifying that you have chosen a superior batch. But what if you had a handheld scanner that would allow you to check nutrient density? “You could compare carrots to carrots,&rdqu...

The Taxonomy of Wonder
Wonder and amazement at the natural world inspire many blog posts, projects, and even careers in science, but it's rare that you'll see wonder break through the soul-crushing passive voice of the scientific literature. It wasn't always this way, of course. In Wonders and the Order of Nature, 1150-1750 , historians of science Lorraine Daston and Katherine Park discuss the intellectual history of wonders in the exploration of natural phenomena before the Enlightenment: As theorized by medieval and early modern intellectuals, wonder was a cognitive passion, as much about knowing as about feeling...The passion of wonder had a...

Having Fun with the 4-Color Theorem
[caption id="attachment_200" align="alignright" width="300" caption="A four-coloring of most of Europe."] [/caption]The 4-color theorem is fairly famous in mathematics for a couple of reasons. First, it is easy to understand: any reasonable map on a plane or a sphere (in other words, any map of our world) can be colored in with four distinct colors, so that no two neighboring countries share a color.

Mindfulness Can Improve Your Attention and Health (preview)
Pulling into a parking spot at work, you realize you have no recollection of the drive that got you there. On reaching the bottom of a page in a book, you are frustrated that you have failed to understand what you just read.

Cloud-Borne Bacteria May Affect Human Health and the Environment
Louis Pasteur opened a glass flask on Montanvert Glacier in the French Alps in 1860 and collected some air. A few days later the bottom of that flask was teeming with goo--proof to Pasteur and his colleagues that there was something in the air, something invisible but quite real. Today we understand what that invisible stuff is--microbes aloft in our atmosphere--but despite the more than 150 years that have passed since Pasteur's experiment, scientists are just beginning to understand how microorganisms in the air affect life on earth.

Dynamic Changes in the Initial Colonization of Actinomyces naeslundii and Streptococcus gordonii Using a New Animal Model.
In this study, we aimed to determine whether NOD/SCID.e2f1(-) mice can be used for studying oral colonization of A. naeslundii and S. gordonii. Colonization of A. naeslundii in mice fed with 1% sucrose water for 24 h before inoculation was higher than that among mice fed with sucrose water for 1 h. A. naeslundii colonization using mixed species-inoculation was lower than that using single-species inoculation 30-90 min after inoculation; however, the colonization was higher 120-180 min after inoculation. The mixed inoculation induced better colonization of S. gordonii than single-species inoculation 60-180 min after inocula...
