That approach didn't make sense to Stanford biochemist Patrick Brown. Convinced that tissues and cells could be studied as collective systems rather than as individual components, he devised a method to mechanically print more than 20,000 gene molecules onto 45,000 tiny spots on a conventional microscope slide...
Still want to crunch like the stars? The San Diego team found that the best of three infomercial products it studied was the Torso Track, endorsed by Suzanne Somers, which requires users to kneel on a pad and slide a handlebar forward and back, working both the abdominals and the obliques...

Researchers have noted a marked increase of cases in the eight to 11-year-old age range over the past five years...
