Wilson Solar Grill Stores the Sun’s Energy for Nighttime Fuel-Free Grilling

Mon, 2016-05-30 13:21 — davidmc

Many of us will be firing up our grills this weekend for some well-deserved barbecue time. After all, barbecuing is one of America’s greatest pastimes, but it certainly isn’t one of our most environmentally friendly. Whether you prefer charcoal, wood chips or propane, grilling releases emissions and contributes to poor air quality.

Disease Evolution: How New Illnesses Emerge When We Change How We Live

Fri, 2016-05-27 12:56 — davidmc

Humans have been “acquiring” infectious diseases from animals (zoonotic diseases) since we first started hunting wild game on the African savannahs. Indeed, nearly 60% of bugs that infect humans originated in animals.

Beautiful New Images of Ebola Virus and Other Pathogens

Fri, 2016-05-27 12:28 — davidmc

When I told her that I wanted to major in microbiology, my best friend from childhood responded, “Are you sure you want to look in a microscope all day?”

But, as it turned out, a lot of microbiologists don’t use microscopes very often. I was one of them. The reason is because a substantial proportion of modern microbiology research uses the tools of molecular biology, for which microscopes are not needed.

African Monkeys Caught Eating Bats For the First Time

Wed, 2016-05-25 12:32 — davidmc

Researchers working in Africa are the first to observe monkeys preying on bats. The unusual behavior, which may have something to do with loss of habitat, could explain how dangerous diseases such as Ebola spread among species—and eventually to humans.

Resilient Health Systems Can Prevent and Contain Pandemics

Wed, 2016-05-25 12:04 — davidmc

Resilience is one of those buzzwords that every so often captures the hearts and minds of development practitioners. The importance of this particular term, though, becomes all too clear as the world faces an increasing number of humanitarian crises, including outbreaks that can turn into pandemics.
