Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a human model of lactating breast tissue using 3D printing and breast milk cells.

The cells in the tissue model produced components of human milk. 

The model is designed to help better understand the processes involved in lactation. 

About The Study: In this study, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act was associated with a significantly decreased risk of losing health insurance for individuals enrolled in the Medicaid program.

About The Study: The results of this study suggest that extending Medicaid coverage for 12 months postpartum was associated with expanded opportunities for greater access to Medicaid-financed medical and behavioral health care. Both prevention and ongoing treatment of chronic conditions may help mitigate key adverse outcomes. The findings may help policymakers and public health officials understand how extended coverage affects access to Medicaid-financed care.

Dae Hyun Kim, MD, MPH, ScD, has joined a new Lancet Commission on Frailty, as part of an effort by one of the world’s most influential peer-reviewed medical journals to globally reorient frailty in clinical practice, public health, and policy. An associate director and senior scientist at Hebrew SeniorLife’s Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research, Dr. Kim joins 20 other global experts to bring a multidisciplinary perspective to developing strategies that can be adapted to populations with disparities in access to care.

In recent years, it has been found that Lycium barbarum can repair liver damage and promote liver regeneration. Additionally, the polysaccharides contained in Lycium barbarum have anticancer properties and can induce apoptosis in cancer cells. Molecular docking, a mature computer-aided method, is widely used in drug discovery. This study aimed to verify the efficacy of active ingredients of Lycium barbarum in the treatment of liver cancer by molecular docking.
