This time last year, most Australians stayed at home, perhaps taking solace in the performance of the Australian swimming team, which took home multiple gold medals from the Tokyo Olympics. This year, we can expect more as the Dolphins face the best swimmer at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. The team had successfully won the world championship in Budapest in June and stayed together for training camp in France before starting their assault on the Birmingham pool. Once again, the team will be led by a group of extraordinary women who have taken the world by storm: Emma McKeon, Ariarne Titmus and Kaylee McKeown will be joined by Australia’s newest teen swimming superstar, Mollie O’Callaghan. Australian women have posted the fastest Commonwealth times this year in 12 of the 16 races at the Birmingham programme, and that doesn’t take into account McKeon, who has taken a lot of time off this year but will return for the Olympics. Even so, head coach Rohan Taylor is re...

He said Ginnivan had been the victim on Sunday, but it was not the referee’s fault, it was a decision born of a philosophical shift in the AFL. Matthews said his initial thought when he saw the incident was to ask himself, what did they do to the game? “And when I say ‘they’, I mean (AFL chairman) Richard Goyder and the commission which is the only body that actually changes the rules and [AFL CEO) Gillon McLachlan and his coaching cohort of advisers that are making the game easier for the tackler and harder for the bloke with the ball,” Matthews said. “It got my blood boiling. Every other player in the competition would have got that free kick … I felt sick. That was virtually not only a high contact headlock, it was bordering on unduly rough play.” Last Tuesday the AFL responded to the increasing number of players drawing free kicks for head high contact with a statement that outlined the directive to umpires.

Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Insectivorous plants have fascinated biologists for more than a century, but how plants developed the ability to capture and consume live prey remains largely a mystery. Now, Salk scientists, along with collaborators from the University of Washington at St. Louis, has investigated the molecular basis of plant carnivores and found evidence that it evolved from mechanisms that plants use to defend themselves. Research published on July 11, 2022, in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ( PNAS ), detailing how calcium molecules move dynamically within cells in the leaves of carnivorous plants in response to touch from live prey. Fluctuations in calcium cause leaf movement to capture prey, possibly through increased production of defense hormones. The findings broaden scientists’ understanding of how plants interact with their environment. “If we can learn more about how plants such as these...

You’re here: 11 July 2022 Researchers from the School’s Center for Cardiac Research and Education in Therapeutics (CCRET) have built a challenging work of more than 50 years of medical practice on the use of opioids to treat people with myocardial ischemic pain – pain caused by blood clots. supply to the heart. Severe blockage can lead to a heart attack, heart failure, and abnormal heart rhythms. Opioids are often used by doctors and paramedics to relieve pain pressure with the longstanding belief that it leads to better outcomes. However, recent studies have raised concerns regarding the potential interaction between opioids and an anti-platelet drug called P2Y. oral 12 inhibitors, the cornerstone of therapy in managing heart attacks thanks to its anti-clotting action which reduces the risk of death. It is thought that opioids can act in two ways: first by sl...
