On Earth, blood flows down from a person's brain back toward the heart thanks in part to gravity, but very little is known about how this flow happens in microgravity.

Using appropriate seat belt restraints boosts child safety on road, say civil engineers

Vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death and injury among children. Kansas State University civil engineers are striving to increase child safety by studying a simple action: buckling up.

PTSD alone does not explain the increased risk of cardiovascular disease in veterans

Post-traumatic stress disorder by itself does not explain the increased risk of cardiovascular disease in veterans with this condition.
