10 Outstanding Companies for Women ’s Health
The women’s health technology or so-called femtech
market has been on the rise for the last couple of years, but it has mainly
revolved around fertility and pregnancy. We believe that female health topics reach
far beyond such traditional issues and players should concentrate more on
menopause, endometriosis, or mental health, just to name a few areas. Thus, we
tried to collect companies which are on top of their game in the conventional
fertility and/or pregnancy area, but also start-ups and ventures who are
looking way beyond that. Here’s our guide to 10 outstanding companies in
women’s health.
The women’s hea...

What Will Being Healthy Mean In The Future?
The objective is not “just” being healthy anymore
but also being in the best shape possible. The healthy lifestyle craze that
started in the 1980s is augmented with technologies and penetrates every area and
moment of life.
In his book, 21
Lessons for the 21st Century, Yuval Noah Harari argues that as technology encompasses every tiny part
of our health, we will gradually let technology
take over our decision-making capacities. In a couple of decades, tiny sensors and big data
might tell us whether we are sick or healthy. Medical decisions in our life won’t rely on our feelings of illness or
wellness, or even on t...

New Jersey Assembly, Senate Pass Aid in Dying Bill After Nearly 7 Years of Debate
New
Jerseyans with terminal or life-shortening diseases and Compassion &
Choices praised the state Assembly and Senate for passing the Aid in Dying for
the Terminally Ill Act (S1072/A1504) after nearly seven years of debate on the
issue and urged Governor Phil Murphy to promptly sign it into law. The Assembly
approved the bill by a 41 to 33 vote and Senate by a 21 to 16 vote.
This bill would allow mentally
capable, terminally ill adults with 6 months or less to live to have the option

Nanotechnology Will Break The Curse Running Through Generations
A fictional tale about the healing power of technology
The mutation of the CDH1 gene determines the fate of
generations of men in a Czech small town. The great-grandfather
dies unexpectedly upon returning home from the trenches of the first World War
– he survives the bullets of the Italian front
but gives in after a pint of beer and schnitzel. The grandfather was already diagnosed
with an illness, gastric cancer, which required the removal of his entire
stomach – but his life couldn’t be saved either. His son was luckier, he was
diagnosed in time with an early stage hereditary diffuse gastric cancer and had
e...

Friendships – The Key To Happiness
You're reading Friendships – The Key To Happiness, originally posted on Pick the Brain | Motivation and Self Improvement. If you're enjoying this, please visit our site for more inspirational articles.
I often recommend to others who seek to do what I tried, DON’T! It is too dangerous – you are taking an awful risk. It is not wise to isolate yourself for twelve months and spend hour upon hour peering inside, facing your worst pains and fears, trying to see beyond them for answers that might not even exist. And yet, if I hadn’t taken that gamble, I would have never understood today just how imperative friendship...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, March 18th 2019
This study provides a possible reason why genes carrying health risks have persisted in human populations. The second found evidence for multiple variants in genes related to ageing that exhibited antagonistic pleiotropic effects. They found higher risk allele frequencies with large effect sizes for late-onset diseases (relative to early-onset diseases) and an excess of variants with antagonistic effects expressed through early and late life diseases.
There also exists other recent tangible evidence of antagonistic pleiotropy in specific human genes. The SPATA31 gene has been found under strong positive genomic sele...

Facebook, a social networking platform founded by Mark Zuckerberg has around 2.2 billion monthly active users as of January 2018 (source Wikipedia).

12 Ways to Keep Going with Depression
About once a week I hear the same question from a reader, “What keeps you going?” The short answer is lots of things. I use a variety of tools to persevere through my struggle with depression because what works on one day doesn’t the next. I have to break some hours into 15-minute intervals and simply put one foot in front of another, doing the thing that is right in front of me and nothing else.
