Haderach C. Kwisatch"Our results show that uncertainty, not just expectation, plays an important role in pain. Previous research on placebo and nocebo effects has shown that expecting relief can reduce pain, while expecting harm can make pain worse. Our findings add a new layer: when the brain is unsure about what to expect and encounters ambiguous signals, it errs on the side of caution, intensifying pain beyond what's necessary," Francesca Fardo explains."<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#science</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#medicine</a> <a href="https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/03/250314113601.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/03/250314113601.htm</a>

Flipboard Science DeskNewborn babies have been exposed to measles at a Texas hospital and are receiving antibodies to protect them, NBC reports. The virus was brought into the University Medical Center Children's Hospital by a mother in labor — doctors didn't realize until after her admission that she was infected, and it's unclear when she tested positive. The immunoglobulin injections have been given to babies as young as three days old. A 2021 study found this therapy is highly effective in protecting exposed newborns who are too young to be vaccinated. Emergency masking procedures have also been implemented. <a href="https://flip.it/0.ZRbx" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://flip.it/0.ZRbx</a><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/MeaslesOutbreak" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MeaslesOutbreak</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Medicine</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Vaccination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vaccination</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Texas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Texas</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Children" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Children</a>

It's an interesting time to be covering this type of material from the stage, given that I'm doing so in a country where the very science of healthcare is under attack.Even so, one of my jobs is to help the group - all involved in the health benefits community - understand the big sweeping trends and ideas that provide so much potential for society. Such as the statement, "What we did for heart health in the 20th century, we can do for brain health in the 21st century" from Dr. Deepak Chopra, an integrative medicine advocateI've got several slides with these big, bold ideas or observations in my deck.All around the idea of thinking big about tomorrow, not thinking small about where we are today.Read more.---Futurist Jim Carroll has been speaking about the future of healthcare for 25+ years, and has seen a lot of the ‘big crazy ideas’ he’s predicted from the stage become real over time.**<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Innovation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Innovation</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Healthcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Healthcare</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Future" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Future</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Vision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vision</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Possibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Possibility</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Medicine</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Technology</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Perspective" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Perspective</a>** **<a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Potential" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Potential</a>**<a href="https://jimcarroll.com/2025/03/daily-inspiration-the-future-of-healthcare-too-many-people-focus-on-what-is-rather-than-what-could-be/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://jimcarroll.com/2025/03/daily-inspiration-the-future-of-healthcare-too-many-people-focus-on-what-is-rather-than-what-could-be/</a>

In these challenging and defining times, the National Academy of Sciences, of all scientific institutions, must speak up…The new <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> administration is now making an unprecedented effort to prevent science from informing public policy. In his first day in office, President Trump signed executive orders withdrawing the U.S. from participation in the Paris Agreement on <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#climate</a> change and from the World Health Organization [<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/WHO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WHO</a>]. The new administration has subsequently acted to drastically limit support for climate and medical research performed by scientists in the federal government and in universities. In this emergency, it is not enough for the National Academy of Sciences to speak up from its grass roots, as in 2016 or 2018. It must now speak as an institution if it is to fulfill its responsibilities to the nation and maintain its relevance in the future."<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Censorship</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DefendResearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DefendResearch</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Medicine</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Takedowns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Takedowns</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPolitics</a>
