The gut-brain connection. Gut health is now live!

Join our Q&A on Feb 16th.

ENROL FOR £99 Just £99 | Limited time offer | save 33% Gut Health short course is live. Our online course in Gut Health is now live. Will you join our first cohort of learners on this new format short course with live Q&A?  Most of us are familiar with the sensation of “butterflies” in our stomach when we feel nervous before a significant event. We might also experience an immediate “gut instinct” about someone when we meet them for the first time. The connection between our mind and our gut goes well beyond a humble metaphor. It is now scientifically established that the gut and brain are intimately linked by a dynamic communication system involving hormonal, neuronal and chemical signaling.  Explore the connections between the brain and the gut microbiome on our new format short course in Gut Health.  Members will gain exclusive access to the live seminar and Q&A - 'Managing your microbiome.' included as part of this course.  This event will be delivered by course speaker Professor Emma Allen-Vercoe on February 16th at 7pm GMT. Emma is Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Guelph in Canada and an expert in gut health. This is an event not to be missed. Book now to join the live Q&A, we're excited to meet our Academy members.   What's covered? What is the microbiome? How might your gut microbiome influence your mental health? How does your gut microbiome influence your physical health?  How you can shape your microbiome – for better and worse? Your course leaders Emma Allen-Vercoe University of Guelph, Canada Prof. Emma Allen-Vercoe's research focuses on the study of the normal human gut microbiota, both in disease and in health. John F. Cryan University College Cork, Ireland John F. Cryan is Professor & Chair, Dept. of Anatomy & Neuroscience, University College Cork and Principal Investigator in the APC Microbiome Institute. Jessica Hamzelou Science and health journalist and course host Jessica Hamzelou reports on health and medical science, with a particular interest in fertility, neuroscience and microbiology. She has a BSc in biomedical science. Jessica was named BSME’s Best Specialist Digital Writer in 2018 and 2021 and ABSW’s British Science Writer of the Year in 2017.

Coming Soon One 1970s experiment asked children to draw a scientist. Fewer than one percent sketched a woman. In more recent iterations of that study, around 40 percent of kids have drawn a female scientist. That shift is a testament to the rising number of opportunities for — and recognition of — women in STEM. But there’s still a long way to go toward gender equality in science. Women remain vastly outnumbered in fields like engineering and computer science — and in some fields, closing that gender gap may take more than a century. At the grade-school level, girls are underrepresented in STEM activities and are more likely than boys to doubt their STEM potential. To boost the visibility of women in STEM and inspire the next generation of female researchers, celebrate February 11 — International Day of Women and Girls in Science.  Science News for Students has profiled many awesome female scientists over the years, from researchers investigating the health impacts of racial discrimination, to climate change, to the human brain . In fact, in 2016, Science News for Students called for women in STEM to submit short profiles of their lives in science — and got more than 150 responses from around the world. In a series on women in STEM, we published dozens of these profiles, spotlighting number-crunchers who work in math and quantum physics, scientists who study fossils and volcanoes, not to mention astronomy and aurora researchers and many others.  Find these stories in our Science is for Everyone collection. Others there also highlight people from historically underrepresented communities who have been transforming STEM in all its facets.   Science News is a nonprofit.

Their cushy life has somehow prepared them to survive the lethal radiation of outer space.  Readability: 7.0  Resources: classroom questions, power words, word find puzzle, video Nodding off may turn your creativity on: In an experiment, people who fell into a shallow sleep were more likely than non-sleepers or deep sleepers to discover a sly math trick. Readability: 7.0 Resources:  power words, alternate version at Science News DNA in air can help ID unseen animals nearby: Analyzing these genetic residues in air offers a new way to study animals. It could give scientists a chance to monitor rare or hard to find animals. Readability: 7.0 Resources: classroom questions, power words Explainer: How loud is too loud?: Loud sounds, be it music or noise, might seem like no big deal at the time. But permanent damage can occur without noticeable warning signs.  Readability: 7.3 Resources: power words The ‘Doomsday’ glacier may soon trigger a dramatic sea-level rise: The ice shelf that had kept it in place could fail within five years. That would speed the glacier’s slip into the ocean, boosting a rise in sea levels. Readability: 7.0 Resources: power words, alternate version at Science News Scientists Say: Voltage: Voltage is a measure of how much electricity is available to power devices. Readability: 7.7 Resources: power words, audio Opportunity Are you looking for a place to connect with other educators who use Science News for Students?
