Sourdough starter is a wonderful thing – I’ve not yet used mine to make bread, but already my nose and mouth have developed an appreciation for all it can convey. Take these pancakes, for instance; never before has a pancake been so flavourful, complex or versatile. Indeed, what you see before you are equally suited to both sweet and savoury toppings – there need be no limit to your imagination here.

In the second century, an ethnically Greek Roman named Galen became doctor to the gladiators. His glimpses into the human body via these warriors’ wounds, combined with much more systematic dissections of animals, became the basis of Islamic and European medicine for centuries.
Galen’s texts wouldn’t be challenged for anatomical supremacy until the Renaissance, when human dissections — often in public — surged in popularity. But doctors in medieval Europe weren’t as idle as it may seem, as a new analysis of the oldest-known preserved human dissection in Europe reveals.

This anatomical specimen dating to the 1200s is the oldest known in Europe.

A deadly form of skin cancer is able to fend off the body’s immune system, UK researchers have found.
Analysis of tumour and blood samples shows that melanoma knocks out the body’s best immune defence.
A potential test could work out which patients are likely to respond to treatment, the Journal of Clinical Investigation reports.
Cancer Research UK said the body’s response was a “complex puzzle”.
Previous work from the team at King’s College London showed that while patients with melanoma produced antibodies that could attack tumour cells, the immune system often seemed powerless to stop the cancer progressing.

Multiple sclerosis affects more than 2.1 million individuals worldwide. But there is another disease that affects the central nervous system and is far more common.
Central Pain Syndrome is a neurological condition that causes chronic pain in those who suffer from it. Unfortunately, it’s a condition that often goes diagnosed. In recognition of Rare Diseases Day on Thursday, HuffPost Live featured the stories of several individuals whose lives have been impacted by CPS.
.
Louise Mowder is one of the many Americans suffering from the rarely diagnosed Central Pain Syndrome, or CPS.

Some bacteria, including tuberculosis, are able to invade because the body launches the ‘wrong’ immune response, say researchers.
Instead of fighting off tuberculosis, people with a severe infection produce a protein which attacks viruses, the journal Science reports.
About 8.7 million people are infected with tuberculosis every year.
The findings may explain why viruses can make people more susceptible to bacterial infections.
A spring peak in tuberculosis infections may be linked to the effects of viruses circulating in winter, experts suggested.

The activity of hundreds of genes was altered when people’s sleep was cut to less than six hours a day for a week.
Writing in the journal PNAS, the researchers said the results helped explain how poor sleep damaged health.
Heart disease, diabetes, obesity and poor brain function have all been linked to substandard sleep.
What missing hours in bed actually does to alter health, however, is unknown.
So researchers at the University of Surrey analysed the blood of 26 people after they had had plenty of sleep, up to 10 hours each night for a week, and compared the results with samples after a week of fewer than six hours a night.

Carmen Blandin Tarleton is starting over.
The Vermont former transplant nurse has undergone more than 50 surgeries — including a full face transplant — since her jealous ex-husband poured lye on her in 2007, burning and disfiguring more than 80 percent of her body.
She’s currently recovering from a transplant that applied an anonymous female donor’s facial skin to the 44-year-old’s nose and lips, facial muscles, neck, arteries and nerves. Doctors tell the Associated Press that Tarleton is “a fighter” and quoted her as saying she feels “strong, and . . . confident that I have the strength to deal with whatever comes my way.”

Looking at photos from the November spill, so eerily similar to the photos from BP’s April 2010 spill in the Gulf of Mexico, it’s clear we are still looking for energy in risky places, and largely unprepared to deal with the consequences of failure. One year after the BP spill (which workers soaked up, in large part, with straw bales), the X Prize Foundation announced winners of a million-dollar incentive to develop new tools to clean up oil spills: And many others are looking at this problem too, including one of TED’s Senior Fellows, Cesar Harada. Harada is an inventor — of a staggering number of kinds of things. One of them is the Open_Sailing project, a group of inventors and scientists building open-source hardware and software to explore and study the ocean.

Rafi Kopelan is a typical 5-year-old. She’s mastered Candyland. She’s learning to read. Given a choice, she’d spend hours on the swings at the playground.
But unlike her classmates, Rafi’s body is covered in blisters from her scalp to her feet. Her corneas are scratched. Her toes are fused together. And her esophagus is lined with so much scar tissue that she can barely swallow.
That’s because Rafi was born with a rare connective tissue disorder called epidermolysis bullosa (EB). The genetic disease causes her skin to break down in response to the slightest friction. Even minor contact — the scratch of a fingernail, the tag on the back of her shirt — causes her skin to tear or to erupt in blisters, leaving 75% of her body covered in painful, open lesions.
