Halfway through the workweek already!
Lost enough time last night between the whole draped-across-the-bed-too-exhausted-to-move and the catching-up-on-Twitter-and-Facebook that I didn't manage to get to bed before 11pm. But evidently that was enough sleep, since I woke up half an hour before the alarm went off and got to enjoy lying there letting my brain come back online without having to do anything just yet.
A few links from my Yahoo! page:
Ovarian cancer starts elsewhere: study -- "US researchers have recreated the process by which ovarian cancer forms in the lab, providing solid evidence that the tumors start in the fallopian tubes, not the ovaries, a study said Monday. The finding could provide clues on how to attack ovarian cancer, which often causes no early symptoms and by the time it is found has spread so much that the tumors are impossible to stop. Ovarian cancer is the fifth deadliest cancer among women, affecting 200,000 women worldwide annually and killing 115,000 women on average each year."
Three-parent IVF needs more research, review says -- "More research is needed into a controversial fertility treatment, known as three-parent IVF, before it can be considered safe for clinical use, a review has concluded. Mitochondrial transfer aims to replace a faulty part of a mother's egg with healthy material from a donor. This means a baby would have a small amount of the donor's genetic material, and therefore three biological parents."
Landmark study reveals breed-specific causes of death in dogs -- "Dog owners and veterinarians have long relied on a mix of limited data and anecdotal evidence to assess which breeds are at risk of dying from various conditions, but a new University of Georgia study provides a rare and comprehensive look at causes of death in more than 80 breeds. The study, published in the current edition of the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, can be used to create breed-specific health maintenance programs and is a starting point for future studies that will explore the genetic underpinnings of disease in dogs."
Right, let's see how fast I can get that last policy dealt with. Grandma is undoubtedly already fretting about me being "late."
