Geographic tongue, also referred to as migratory glossitis , is a relatively rare condition affecting approximately 1-3% of the global population. It causes patches of the tongue and buccal cavity to become inflamed, resulting in discolored splotches temporarily imprinted into the dorsum, resembling a map, hence its name. What makes this condition intriguing is that it is idiopathic; meaning its root cause is unsettled among scientists, although there has been speculation of its correlation with

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

By Derek Yang , edited by Reyhan O. Dallas, TX The global temperature continues to rise at an alarming rate as carbon dioxide levels increase. This shift causes a myriad of disruptions in weather patterns, including an increase in precipitation, droughts, heat waves, dust storms, and tornadoes. These, in turn, change patterns in fungal disease distributions and severity, which have considerable implications in agriculture.

Since the discovery of Coronavirus in 2019, the disease has remained persistent in our lives. Caused by the highly contagious SARS-CoV-2 virus, COVID-19 often manifests with symptoms like coughing, fever, chills, fatigue, and muscle aches. Symptoms can also vary, especially due to the emergence of variants. This disease generally presents as mild to moderate, but for the elderly and infants, it can become severe to the point of death.

By: Kayley Seedath Edited by: Bindy Namibia, South Africa The deadliest virus in the world, formally known as rabies, is one of the oldest viruses that has a 99.9% fatality rate. Claiming the lives of over 59,000 people per year, rabies is one of the most feared viruses because it goes undetected in the body, and only shows signs when it reaches the nervous system, but by then it is too late.

By Derek Yang , edited by Elin S. Dallas, TX Civilizations have risen, and pandemics have struck them down. Repeatedly. All throughout history, zoonoses have transferred from animals to humans via direct contact, insect vectors, contaminated food, and contaminated water. Such diseases were then exacerbated by human living conditions or systems, traveling far beyond the origin and affecting millions more than they originally did.
