Yet another competitor entered the fray last week when Natera, a startup based in San Carlos, California, announced the 1 March launch date of a commercial test that can detect chromosomal abnormalities in the developing fetus from just a drop of an expectant mother’s blood—and with a sensitivity on par of that of more invasive techniques such as amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling, both of which carry an elevated risk of miscarriage.  <a href="https://blogs.nature.com/spoonful/2013/02/competition-intensifies-over-market-for-dna-based-prenatal-tests.html#wpn-more-4776"

It proposes that language is inexorably linked with how we perceive and think about the world. The classic argument is this: an Inuit person, possessing different names for snow, has the ability to think about, and even see, subtle differences in snow that speakers of some other languages do not.  <a href="https://blogs.nature.com/spoonful/2013/01/proposal-to-overhaul-diseases-name-could-boost-awareness-and-funding.html#wpn-more-4500" class="more-link">Read more</a></p> </div> <div

pregnancy complications such as premature birth as well as a heightened risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases. But finding ways to return the disrupted vaginal microbiome to its normal, healthy state has proven difficult because nobody knows what ‘normal’ really means. As Nature Medicine reported in a July 2011 news feature, a team of scientists at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore had found that there are many naturally occurring versions of the microbiome, in part because the bacteria present in a woman’s vagina may vary according to her ethnicity.  <a

Congress could allow institutions that provide health insurance to opt-out of covering birth control pills for religious or moral reasons. Such policies have, in the past, raised difficulties for women prescribed the drugs for noncontraceptive uses, such as the treatment of pain from ovarian cysts. On 23 February, a law student at Georgetown University named Sandra Fluke testified before the US House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform that when insurance coverage doesn’t cover contraceptives, it can deny women such a friend of Fluke’s with polycystic ovarian syndrome access to birth control prescribed to treat the condition.  <a

That’s right: it’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month! The Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation has raised more than $1.5 billion for breast cancer research since it started in 1982, and $55 million a year comes from corporate marketing partnerships (including the special edition KFC bucket). We’ve covered these questionable ‘pinkwashing’ practices before. And this October, there’s a new wrinkle to breast cancer activism: half-hearted online awareness campaigns.  <a
