Invasive species in the UK
Invasive species, a term referring to non-native species introduced to new environments, often establish self-sustaining populations with negative impacts on local ecosystems, economies, or human health. These invaders, encompassing plants, animals, fungi, or microorganisms (refer to the foot of this article for examples), typically arrive due to human activities such as trade, travel, or intentional release. In rare cases, invasive species might reach the UK through natural avenues, such as animal migration or wind dispersal. Climate change exacerbates the situation, creating new ecological niches due to shifts in tempera...

Health > Care, Border Runs
November will mark the beginning of the 24th year of this blog.  While my posts are far from frequent, I hope that each one is helping others in some way.  That’s always been my goal.  Along these lines, I’ll offer the answer to a question I was asked by a start-up health IT company yesterday, and will also outline the process for the Costa Rica ==> Nicaragua ==> Costa Rica border run, which is both necessary and relatively easy.   Health > Care “Dr. Reider – why are you interested / willing to help out little company?”Some context – and then my response.  (After – ...

Nursing the Nation and the World
Nurses are everywhere. They are legion. The ubiquitous nurse is present in the care of children, the elderly, the disabled, and the dying. Nurses don ' t shy away from responsibility — they embrace it. Nurses run towards the metaphorical fire. Just as firefighters rush into burning buildings and police officers run towards the active shooter, nurses don their gloves and deal with the sputum, the blood, the pus, the emesis, the feces, and the urine — body fluids be damned, th ere ' s work to do and nurses do it. The Ubiquitous NurseWhere would the country be without nurses? Without nurses, the healthcare system wou...

People who grew up in cities tend to be worse navigators
By Matthew Warren The environment in which you grew up can have a long-lasting effect on your navigational skills, according to an analysis of data from nearly 400,000 players of a mobile game. People who spent their childhood in rural or suburban areas tended to be better at navigating in the game Sea Hero Quest than those who grew up in cities. This difference could be seen decades later, the researchers report in Nature, and was particularly striking in countries where cities are organised in a grid layout. Antoine Coutrot from the University of Lyon and colleagues looked at data from 397,162 people from 3...

In Biden ’s Steel Tariff Deal with Europe, Trump’s Trade Policy Lives On
Inu Manak andScott LincicomeThis weekend, the White House announced anarrangement with the European Union (EU) to suspend longstanding tensions over U.S. “national security” tariffs on steel and aluminum imports implemented in 2018. Many news outlets have described the agreement as a significant change in course for U.S. trade policy – a “roll back” of President Trump’s tariffs and shift away from a policy of bellicose bilateralism toward s one more supportive of trade and U.S. allies. Look a little more closely, however, and we see that the deal merely replaces the tariffs with a different, more opaque and dis...

Which Human Experiences Are Universal?
By Emma Young As everyone knows, American undergrads are not representative of all humanity — and the perils of drawing conclusions about people in general from WEIRD studies have been well-publicised. To really understand which human experiences are universal, and which are a product of our individual cultures, we need big, well-conducted studies of people from many different cultures. Fortunately, there are studies like this. Here are some of their most fascinating insights… Personal space How big is your “personal space”? As a Brit, I’d expect mine to be larger than that of th...
