Business Insider - A spokesperson for the US Customs and Border Protection told Insider in a statement that the 6-month-old baby girl who was in critical condition at a children's hospital in Corpus Christi last week after being apprehended by US Border Patrol agents is now in stable condition.

UK Biobank Requires Earth's Geneticists To Cooperate, Not Compete

NPR - There's an astonishing outpouring of new information linking genes and health, thanks to the efforts of humble Englishmen and women such as Chritopeher Fletcher. The 70-year-old man recently drove 90 miles from his home in Nottingham to a radiology clinic outside the city of Manchester. He is one of half a million Brits who have donated time, blood and access to their medical records to a remarkable resource called UK Biobank. The biobank, in turn, has become a resource for more than a thousand scientists around the world who are interested in delving into the link between genes, behaviors and health. Popularity of the resource is snowballing. Just this week, a major study using the data explored the genetics of same-sex sexual behavior. And as researchers discover the biobank's value, there's a strong incentive to add to the database to make it even richer. That's why Fletcher finds himself at a radiology clinic. A decade ago, he had donated a blood sample to the nascent UK Biobank

Soaring US insulin prices leave many in Virginia hurting

AP - HAMPTON ROADS, Va. (AP) - De'Shonae Moody was rushed to an urgent care center where medical staff told the 14-year-old she had abnormally high blood sugar. By the time she arrived at the hospital, her blood glucose levels were at 800 milligrams per deciliter. That's nearly eight times outside what's considered normal and bad enough she could have gone into a coma. That night, a diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes meant Moody, who grew up in Virginia Beach, would join the ranks of millions of Americans who have the disease. It also meant she'd be in another fight facing diabetics in the United States: the rising cost of insulin. Without the medication, which mimics the hormone produced by the pancreas to regulate blood glucose levels, a Type 1 diabetic like Moody couldn't live. But over the last 20 years the price of insulin has skyrocketed, forcing some who are either underinsured or uninsured to go down dangerous paths like rationing their medication by taking smaller doses or skip
