There might be a cure to type 1 diabetes. The cure has been tested on mice and they showed no side affects from it for an entire year. They increased the pancreatic cells that produced insulin. Type Type 1 diabetes is where the beta cells are being destroyed and no insulin is produced. The method the professors have used is called gene transfer. It is a virus designed to get certain genes into the pancreas, those genes digest enzymes along with other cell types that make insulin. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the gene transfer 50 times to treat other diseases. http://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/scientists-cure-type-1-diabetes-year-without-side-effects/ Hannah Schutte

While studying at the University of Pittsburgh, he started the Eco-Soap Bank. The non-profit recycles unused soaps from hotels and sends them to people in need. So far, more than 650,000 people have benefited from the group's work.

In 2015, she won the Minnesota Junior Miss Amazing title in a pageant designed especially for women with special needs. After enrolling in Bethel University’s Inclusive Learning and Development program, she decided to give pageantry another go.“I just think how blessed am I to have this beautiful daughter that is making a difference in the world and showing others a different face of beauty,” her mother said. “She's just a go-getter — I don't know what it is about her.”

For decades the Kuttemperoor river in Alappuzha, India, slowly choked under the weight of rampant illegal sand mining and tons of sewage on its once-pristine banks. Fish and aquatic life were completely wiped out. But not anymore. 700 villagers have spent weeks wading through toxic waste, algae and risking deadly water-borne diseases to physically de-silt and clean the river. It wasn't easy."I was down with dengue for two weeks but I returned to digging the day I was out of my bed," said P Geetha, a woman worker. After two months of back-breaking effort, the results began to show. The river now brims with water, the stench is gone and children are playing on its green banks once more. "When water scarcity turned unbearable, we decided to revive the river. Initially many discouraged us saying it was a mere waste of money and energy. But we proved them all wrong.

When premature babies are born, they are at an increased risk for brain damage.In fact, 70% of premies are at risk for bring damage. Many of these babies are too fragile to go through the big MRI machine to get a clear image of what is wrong. Now, researchers, scientist, and engineers have been working together to make a miniature MRI machine that is just for the infants who can't handle the big machine. A study has been done already on one baby. Alice-Rose Westbrook, a baby born at only 24 weeks, was placed in an incubator, and settled in a custom-made swaddle and sling. The Velcro is fastened and ear defenders put on, but before she moves to the scanner, she’s given a feed to help her relax, maybe even make her a little sleepy while the scan is taking place. She came out of the prototype scan perfectly fine and they are using the data they collected from this prototype to hopefully create an accurate baby MRI scanner. https://mosaicscience.com/story/baby-mri-premature-brain-scan-tech

When the new park director first set foot in Upemba National Park – the Democratic Republic of Congo’s third largest national park – in October 2015, all he could find was a rusty bicycle and a handful of AK-47 bullets. Some park rangers were busy poaching what little wildlife was left, while some of their supervisors were getting rich allowing the illegal mining of coltan and tinstone under the protection of the Mai Mai Bakata Katanga – the local militia group.Upemba rangers are poor – they receive only a pittance from the government, about $35 (£27) a month – so they often rely on the park’s resources to survive.His first task as director was to work on the attitudes of the men working for him, and replace those caught poaching, selling land or allowing mining. “I told them: ‘If you slaughter the last 54 zebras, you’ll have food for a few weeks, but there won’t be any zebras left. Nobody will ever visit or talk about Upemba, and we’ll remain poor and forgotten.’”

In April, Holmgren applied to the Miss Minnesota USA pageant. To her delight, she was accepted, making her the first contestant with Down syndrome to compete for the state's Miss USA crown. And she may even be the first contestant with Down syndrome to compete in the broader Miss USA competition, pageant officials said, though they couldn't be sure. In 2015, she won the Minnesota Junior Miss Amazing title in a pageant designed especially for women with special needs. After enrolling in Bethel University’s Inclusive Learning and Development program, she decided to give pageantry another go.“I just think how blessed am I to have this beautiful daughter that is making a difference in the world and showing others a different face of beauty,” her mother said. “She's just a go-getter — I don't know what it is about her.”

For decades the Kuttemperoor river in Alappuzha, India, slowly choked under the weight of rampant illegal sand mining and tons of sewage on its once-pristine banks. Fish and aquatic life were completely wiped out. But not anymore. 700 villagers have spent weeks wading through toxic waste, algae and risking deadly water-borne diseases to physically de-silt and clean the river. It wasn't easy."I was down with dengue for two weeks but I returned to digging the day I was out of my bed," said P Geetha, a woman worker. After two months of back-breaking effort, the results began to show. The river now brims with water, the stench is gone and children are playing on its green banks once more. "When water scarcity turned unbearable, we decided to revive the river. Initially many discouraged us saying it was a mere waste of money and energy. But we proved them all wrong.

When premature babies are born, they are at an increased risk for brain damage.In fact, 70% of premies are at risk for bring damage. Many of these babies are too fragile to go through the big MRI machine to get a clear image of what is wrong. Now, researchers, scientist, and engineers have been working together to make a miniature MRI machine that is just for the infants who can't handle the big machine. A study has been done already on one baby. Alice-Rose Westbrook, a baby born at only 24 weeks, was placed in an incubator, and settled in a custom-made swaddle and sling. The Velcro is fastened and ear defenders put on, but before she moves to the scanner, she’s given a feed to help her relax, maybe even make her a little sleepy while the scan is taking place. She came out of the prototype scan perfectly fine and they are using the data they collected from this prototype to hopefully create an accurate baby MRI scanner.

These teachers, up in Middlesbrough, England are hoping to help the students realize that although these test are very important, they want them to realize that do not asses all of what makes them special and unique. That those test don not know wether you speak two languages or how talented you might be at singing, dancing or playing musical instrument. They tell them that the test will tell you important things, but they can not tell you everything. They remind them that the test is not the only thing about you.

When the new park director first set foot in Upemba National Park – the Democratic Republic of Congo’s third largest national park – in October 2015, all he could find was a rusty bicycle and a handful of AK-47 bullets. Some park rangers were busy poaching what little wildlife was left, while some of their supervisors were getting rich allowing the illegal mining of coltan and tinstone under the protection of the Mai Mai Bakata Katanga – the local militia group.Upemba rangers are poor – they receive only a pittance from the government, about $35 (£27) a month – so they often rely on the park’s resources to survive.His first task as director was to work on the attitudes of the men working for him, and replace those caught poaching, selling land or allowing mining. “I told them: ‘If you slaughter the last 54 zebras, you’ll have food for a few weeks, but there won’t be any zebras left. Nobody will ever visit or talk about Upemba, and we’ll remain poor and forgotten.’”
