Recent research published in the journal Cell has revealed a fascinating interaction between gut bacteria and human health, particularly concerning women’s health and postpartum depression. The study found that certain gut bacteria produce gas that stimulates other bacteria to convert glucocorticoids, a type of steroid, into progestins. Progestins are hormones involved in pregnancy and are used in treatments for postpartum depression. This discovery sheds light on the potential role of the gut microbiome in regulating hormones and influencing women’s health.

From prison to the trenches: Inside Ukraine’s attempt to turn inmates into soldiers
The push to recruit inmates into the military appears at first glance to parallel a campaign of prison recruitment by Russia’s mercenary company Wagner early in the war, and continued by the Ministry of Defense since last year. The lives of thousands of Russian convicts have been expended in so-called “meat grinder” assaults, particularly in the fighting for the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut.
But Ukraine’s Minister of Justice Denys Maliuska, speaking to CNN in Kyiv, rejected the comparison.
“In Ukraine, motivation is largely based on patriotism. Our prisoners join the army voluntarily. In Russia, it was voluntary and forced. I personally saw (Russian) prisoners who were forced to join Wagner,” he said, adding that in Russia, inmates were recruited into the notoriously brutal private military company, whereas in Ukraine, they are joining the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“This is a regular state military service with all the guarantees: salary, social insurance, payments in case of injury, death, and so on. This is a completely different story in terms of motives and mechanisms.”

Might as well put the triple parentheses. It's his politics that's the problem, not his ancestry
The amnesty and investment reviews are attempts to buy off protesters, in the hope that by the time the university committees do their work, the war in Gaza will be over,
what will the conclusion of the "war in Gaza" look like? I wonder if any Israeli officials have commented
in any case the divestment decisions (almost assuredly negative, because the alternative would open up an equally ugly can of worms) can be made this summer or next,
The universities unfortunately have a fiduciary duty to support Zionism, nothing we can do sorry
while the kids are backpacking in Mongolia.
The problem is that the appearance of caving is caving. If you tacitly tell students that violating university rules will bring no sanctions, they will do it again
They are children, and you can NEVER let the children win. Gives them the wrong idea
The brute fact is that many American universities and colleges, including some of the best, have seen a surge in anti-Semitism, including protesters mobbing students wearing kippahs and shouting that Zionists—that is, people who believe that the Jews deserve a state of their own—deserve death. Many Jewish students, as a result, feel unsafe and unwelcome, and university leaders have only rarely denounced anti-Semitic outbursts without reference to other forms of bias, thereby skirting the core problem.
Administrators are diplomatically paying lip service to the real grievances of the protestors at same time as my fake intellectually dishonest grievances, and this makes me very mad! Pick a side (my side) 😡
Universities cannot claim and do not deserve some special status as arbiters of a moral foreign policy. After all, they are not, and have never been, paragons of moral virtue.
(Insert Pol pot emoji that I can't find) Correct
Nineteen-year-olds make good soldiers, but not good generals, judges, corporate executives, or bishops, for the excellent reason that their emotions and passions, noble or ignoble, have yet to be tamed by wisdom and good judgment
Time and time again, brash 19yo soldiers go to war against the good and wise judgement of the elder peacenik generals commanding them. Who put those 19yo soldiers in charge??
Today’s students are no better or worse than their predecessors. They are, as befits their age, morally selective to a fault: Can anyone recall a demonstration against Pernod Ricard for failing to fully halt exports of Absolut Vodka to Russia until about a year ago?
This is a very serious matter
Presumably, students come to a university for an education, which implies that they need to be educated, which means that they are not, in fact, ready to make the deeper judgments on which society depend
The students attending our most prestigious schools don't actually know anything at all, all of them, in equal measure. That diaspora student who lost half of their relatives to idf bombs? They simply are not educated enough to know that this is actually deeply good for society, like I do.
It's simple really: the children are stupid and cannot be trusted
