The simulators were supplied by the United Nations Population Fund Country Office and Laerdal Global Health (Norway). The school's Midwifery Coordinator, Francesca Bevi, said the simulators help her 17 students build their competence but also their confidence, as the mannequins allow students hands-on practice before they enter clinical practice. Importantly, students can make mistakes, have these corrected, and repeat their correct techniques, before attending to live births. Bevi shared that such practice is essential for women to receive the best quality of care.

The City of Whittlesea has introduced new regulations to deliver positive benefits for cats, the community and wildlife. From 1 August 2023, all cats must be confined to their owner's property or under effective control when outside, and newly registered cats will need to be desexed. Chair Administrator Lydia Wilson said unconfined cats can be problematic for neighbours and local wildlife. "Last year Council received more than 1,000 complaints relating to cats. During consultation with the community, we heard from approximately 1800 people, with more than 80 per cent supporting some form of cat confinement," Lydia said.

Enrique Gil and director Victor Villanueva. Image: Instagram/@exgangleader The recently announced raunchy comedy 'I Am Not Big Bird' was under development with Anima Studios before the COVID-19 pandemic but, because it will be filmed mostly in Thailand, had to be shelved due to the travel restrictions. It was revived from the freezer earlier this year when restrictions were eased and was offered to Victor Villanueva to direct. The big question, however, Villanueva said, was if there will be anyone willing to play the lead role since the film's theme is irreverent and mature.

Sweat, like blood, can tell us a lot about a person's health. And conveniently, it's a lot less invasive to collect. This is the premise behind the wearable sweat sensors developed by Wei Gao, assistant professor of medical engineering, Heritage Medical Research Institute Investigator, and Ronald and JoAnne Willens Scholar.. Over the past five years, Gao has steadily added features to his wearables, making them capable of reading out levels of salts, sugars, uric acid , amino acids, and vitamins as well as more complex molecules like C-reactive protein that can provide timely assessment of certain health risks.
