as infancy. But a seemingly healthy 13-year-old, who suddenly found himself unable to move the left side of his
body to get into a car, was fortunate that his family acted quickly.

Subject: Not Every Stutterer Is A Problem Case: Over-reacting Can Make Stuttering Worse
Posted: Fri 17 Feb 2006 7:05 am (GMT 1)
Topic Replies: 0
If a child often stops in the middle of a sentence and repeats individual sounds or
syllables, this does not inevitably mean that the child is a stutterer. A lot of repetitions, pauses or fillers are
thus not necessarily a reason for panicking. Professor Goetz Schade, who is the head of the Phoniatrics and
Paedaudology Section of Bonn's University Clinic, warns parents against over-reacting.

Subject: Researchers Discover Key Factor For Survival Of Human Embryonic Stem Cells
Posted: Fri 17 Feb 2006 7:05 am (GMT 1)
Topic Replies: 0
Human embryonic stem cells (hES) offer great hope for the treatment of some devastating
diseases, but finding a way to keep enough of these cells usable and healthy for transplantation in patients has
been an ongoing problem. Now scientists at UC Irvine have discovered a way to keep large quantities of these cells
alive, a finding that could potentially lead to mass production of hES cells for therapeutic use at lower cost.

Topic Replies: 0
The bases of the human language faculty are now being investigated by means of highly
specialised measurement techniques and with increasing success. Why can we understand complex sentences, while our
nearest cousins - apes - only understand individual words? Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Human
Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig have discovered that two areas in the human brain are responsible for
different types of language processing requirements.
