Trans-Tasman research collaborators from Te Herenga Waka— Victoria University of Wellington's Ferrier Research Institute and the Malaghan Institute of Medical Research in New Zealand, and the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity in Australia have developed an mRNA-based vaccine that can effectively target and stimulate protective immune cell responses against the malaria-causing parasite Plasmodium in preclinical models. Ferrier Research Institute's Professor Gavin Painter says the approach is distinctive, as the team leveraged years of prior research from the University of Melbourne's Professor Bill Heath at the Doherty Institute and Professor Ian Hermans from the Malaghan Institute.

For those fortunate enough to walk normally, wandering is such an expected behavior that we hardly consider that it involves complex, partly involuntary processes. "Animals move to explore their environment in search of food, interaction with others, or simply out of curiosity. But the perception of danger or a painful stimulus can also activate an automatic flight reflex", Martin Carbo-Tano, a post-doctoral fellow at Paris Brain Institute, explains. In both cases, movement initiation relies on the activation of so-called reticulospinal control neurons, which form an intertwined network in the most posterior part of the brain—the brainstem.

by Timothy McQuiston, Vermont Business Magazine The Vermont Department of Health reported August 23, 2023, that COVID-19 hospitalizations increased to a statewide total of 31, up from 25 from last week and from 7 the week before. Cases and hospitalizations have risen over the summer. However, COVID-19 activity remains in the "Low" range, according to the VDH. Reported cases last week were 219 up from 165 and 112 the previous two weeks. The CDC has stated that a new booster will be available this fall and that an estimated 97% of Americans have some level of immunity , from either vaccination or infection or both, which will help keep down new transmission and lessen serious outcomes.

Rio Tinto will ultimately determine the direction of Southland's renewable energy strategy. Report recommends decarbonised study by 2030 A Southland Murihiku Regional Energy Strategy 2022-2050 report released by Great South yesterday revealed the direction of the province's decarbonisation pathway would primarily depend on whether Tiwai Smelter, part-owned by Rio Tinto, closed at the end of 2024 or remained open. A closure would result in an over-supply of electricity from the Manapouri hydro-electric station which could be used locally for the proposed Southern Green Hydrogen (SGH) and ammonia plant or be rerouted to northern centres on an aged and inadequate network causing large transmission losses.
