Children’s growth will be easier to assess following a University of Queensland-led study analysing the genetic variants that influence height. Dr Loic Yengo and Professor Peter Visscher from UQ’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience have worked with 600 researchers in the largest-ever genome-wide association study (GWAS). The study analysed data from 5.4 million people and uncovered […]

Research shows water fluoridation is safe for children: Research from The University of Queensland has found no link between community water fluoridation and adverse effects on children’s brain development. Professor Loc Do from UQ’s School of Dentistry said the study examined the difference between the brain development and function of children who’d been exposed to […]

Leptin hormone protects against development of fatty liver: A study group at MedUni Vienna has identified a regulatory loop controlled by leptin, by which this adipocyte-derived hormone regulates hepatic lipid metabolism via the autonomic nervous system. The study provides evidence that this adipose tissue-brain-liver axis, previously identified in animal models, also exists in humans and […]

Experimental Physiology’s Open Access future: The Physiological Society is delighted to announce that from January 2023, Experimental Physiology will be fully Open Access. Since it was established in 1908 Experimental Physiology has published research articles that report novel insights into homeostatic and adaptive responses in health, as well as those that further our understanding of […]

Australia is heading for a “perfect storm” as climate change ramps up the frequency of disasters and as the population is fatigued, vulnerable and less resilient thanks to almost three years of continual emergencies, according to the author of a Perspective published today by the Medical Journal of Australia. Professor George Braitberg, Professor of Emergency […]
