Certain conditions, such as climate warming, have intensified tundra wildfires which have profound implications for permafrost thaw.<br />

The two spent nearly a month in Greenland this past summer. The fieldwork, while scenic, isn't glamorous. "You're standing in front of a massive glacier submerging your hands in zero degrees Celsius water; it's freezing and windy and dusty," Murphy says. "We have to get creative to get clean samples."<br />

But how does the animal know what part of its body is missing and what kind of tissue it needs to regenerate?<br />

Rates of timely follow-up among Black children were particularly low, with 10% fewer receiving an outpatient mental health appointment within 30 days compared to white children.<br />

Although the study participants were adults, the rate of surgical treatment subsequently increased across all age groups.<br />

These decisions may contribute to worse breast cancer survival rates for older women than for younger ones, although many older women will not benefit from more aggressive treatments and so may avoid harm from over-treatment.<img src="//feeds.feedburner.com/~r/medicalxpress-rss/~4/Gegr18qSmc8" height="1" width="1" alt="" />
