Pregnant women who frequently bend forward at work could face an increased risk of miscarriage, according to a new study from the University of Copenhagen. The researchers believe that greater attention should be paid to the working environment in early pregnancy.

The school bell may signal the end of lessons, but for more than half a million Australian children each week, it doesn't mean the end of opportunities to be active.

A major Adelaide University study has found that outside school hours care services can play an important role in keeping children moving, with services that completed the Activated OSHC program showing substantial improvements in physical activity and screen time practices.

The CU Anschutz Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences is part of a statewide, community-based collaborative led by Denver Recovery Group (DRG) that has received a $4.94 million first-year award through Colorado's Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) to launch Colorado STREAM, an ambitious new initiative designed to bring essential healthcare services closer to people living in rural and frontier communities across Colorado.*

Colorado STREAM is envisioned as a five-year initiative, with annual funding subject to continued approval. If funded at the first-year level, the initiative represents nearly $25 million in investment in rural Colorado over five years. Approximately $1.42 million of the first-year award is budgeted to support CU Anschutz Pharmacy’s role in the project—an investment that could total more than $7 million over five years, making STREAM one of the largest awards in the School’s history.

Denver Recovery Group serves as the lead grantee, working in partnership with CU Anschutz Pharmacy, The Steadman Group, and community and healthcare partners across the state, to develop and implement Colorado STREAM, a new model designed to bring coordinated, whole-person care closer to rural Coloradans.

Colorado STREAM will connect community pharmacies with regional treatment centers, telehealth services and other healthcare partners to expand access to medications for opioid use disorder, chronic disease management, medication support and other whole-person health services.
