I will definitely write full posts about some of these things, plus a million other issues I’d like to learn more about!! But for now, here are some really cool articles and books I’ve stumbled upon this week. If you are bored and want to learn something cool, read on! Let me know what you find out!
The Berlin Patient– This link is from the NPR story I originally heard about this issue. It is so cool- a bone marrow transplant from someone with a slight mutation on their immune cells has basically cured a man of HIV.
Lack of Sleep and Stroke Risk– I’d like to write a more broad post about sleep, but here is another reason to get some shut-eye!
How Doctors Think– A new book I keep hearing about and just bought myself. The author suggests that it be read by both patients and physicians.
There’s just 3 to start- I know I’ve seen more so I will update the list soon 🙂

Really look forward to more science posts. Could you do one sometime on the health benefits of coffee? I’m going to check out these links, too. They look very interesting!
