Epigenetics - the examination of how environmental factors like diet, stress, and post-natal maternal behavior can change gene function without altering DNA sequence - plays a major role in depression and in the actions of antidepressant medications. New studies in the field are revealing new molecular targets for better therapies for depression, scientists say. They spoke at a press conference today following a National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)-sponsored symposium on epigenetics during the American Psychiatric Association Annual Meeting in Washington DC. "The mechanisms that precipitate depression, such as stress, are incompletely understood," says Eric Nestler, MD, PhD, of The University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas, and organizer of the symposium.

CSAA 2008 NATIONAL CONFERENCEFUTURES’Kalgoorlie, Western Australia6th – 9th December, 2008Cultural studies has historically concerned itself with the cultural practices of the everyday and the now. However, as a politically motivated discipline, cultural studies has an ongoing preoccupation with cultural, economic, and political change, and thus with futures. The 2008 Cultural Studies Association of Australasia National Conference will interrogate possible and impossible local, national, regional, and global futures.Our imaginings of the future shape the lived experience of the present and our cultural memory of the past.

In what seems to be a deceptive maneuver to many in both the medical and the publishing fields, Merck acknowledged that it has been known to hire outside professional writers to develop research-related documents that eventually get published under the name of reputable leaders in the medical community. Critics are expressing doubt about the validity of the research and about the actual involvement of the scientists listed as authors of the papers. One especially galling example is that of the paper being developed as solid academic research but the lead writer is listed as “External author.” Dr. Joseph S. Ross, of New York’s Mount Sinai School of Medicine, came across the apparently ghostwritten research studies while reviewing documents related to lawsuits filed against

The city of Tel Aviv joined the “Earth Hour” project today with a one hour ‘lights off’ between 8:00-9:00 pm. The municipal building and towers around the city coordinated a live TV broadcasted ‘lights off’ which has definitely left an impression.At first I adopted a very cynical attitude towards this initiative (which was even sponsored by corporations branding themselves ‘green’ but in reality have a long way to go). However, I quickly changed my mind as I witnessed the effect it had on awareness.Rationally speaking one hour of darkness has no real affect what so ever. Furthermore, it may also be used as a distraction from the real environmental issues at hand which require an attention span of more than one hour and a lot more money. Marketing, however, is a whole differ
