Google Trends Now Predicting Virus Outbreaks

Google Trends Now Predicting Virus Outbreaks plus.google.com This study, published in the National Academy of Sciences, suggests that the chickenpox virus isn’t spread how we initially thought, and might be much more of a problem than it was in the past. But to look a little bit further into this data, researchers used a very unlikely source: Google Trends. Researchers used Google Trends previously to look at past influenza rates as well as to estimate future influenza rates. Knowing this, researchers assumed they’d be able to use the same system to track chickenpox rates. So, they decided to run a study to determine whether or not the chickenpox, like many other viruses such as the common cold and the flu, is a seasonal disease. So, researchers looked at the Google search data over a period of 11 years and spanning 36 countries. The data was then validated by published clinical cases. So what were the results? The findings showed that the virus peaked in the spring on a global scale. However, the study also showed that the countries that regularly use vaccines had a much weaker peak in the spring. On top of this, the study’s results were fairly limited because the countries that were studied were fully developed. This means that the countries studied had internet access, high levels of education and literacy all necessary to search for the information necessary to the study online. According to Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease expert at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, “Data can instruct a ministry of health, where they don’t have any idea about chickenpox [rates].” Schaffner was not involved in the study, but claimed that the findings would be useful to countries where a vaccine for said virus would not be common and the rate of the virus wouldn’t be tracked. He also noted the extent of difference in chickenpox searches among the countries studied in the research. According to him, “In countries where we immunize routinely, the seasonality is much more muted and the inquiries themselves aren’t about disease and symptoms and treatment [but] about vaccines.” This is probably because news of the infection is spread through word of mouth, so the searches on Google were most likely due to fear or concern from a parent that their child was infected. Kevin Bakker, the lead author of the study, was the mind behind the use of Google data for the study. He claimed he wanted to use this data after noticing a correlation between Google searches and seasonal peaks in infectious diseases. According to Bakker: “I think digital epidemiology, which is using Google trends or Twitter trends … is a complement to clinical data … You take your child to the doctor and the doctor sends the case report to state health officials and the CDC compiles it all. If I go to Google Trends, you can see the top trends in data anywhere in the world.” Bakker is currently a graduate student in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Michigan. Through this use of Google Trends, Bakker has bypassed the tediousness of finding traditional, reported clinical data and has instead formed a much quicker way to a conclusion (which will, of course, have to be backed by the reported data down the road). But just for the sake of saving time, this new method appears to be ingenious. Because it takes so long for data to finally reach the CDC, it’s important for researchers to have access to the data beforehand, even if it is secondhand data found on search engines. Bakker stressed the importance of supplementing clinical data with the Google data, as one will help achieve faster findings while the other will prove invariably that these findings are in fact correct. Dr. Amy Edwards is a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the University Hospitals Rainbow Babies Children’s Hospital. She does believe that more evidence is needed to back up the Google data (suggesting there’s still going to be a tedious fact-checking period), but she also believes that Google data is going to be largely beneficial in future research regarding outbreaks of certain diseases. According to Edwards, “It has the potential to be extremely interesting particularly in unreported and under-reported diseases.” She also suggests that such information can help medical personnel preemptively screen for viruses as well as to plan better in terms of preventative care. While it sounds ridiculous that Google Trends is actually helping in medical research, the search engine may have just saved researchers eons of time they otherwise wouldn’t have had. And as for the general public, we’re probably going to benefit the most. So technology isn’t all bad, huh?

This Kumon Math Program Completer Wants to Save Lives

This Kumon Math Program Completer Wants to Save Lives This Kumon Math Program Completer Wants to Save Lives Justin, 14-years-old, Math Program Completer As a freshman in high school, 14-year-old Justin is in honors precalculus, a class no other freshman student is in at his high school. Justin credits Kumon for helping him gain valuable skills that laid a solid foundation for his academic success. He enrolled in Kumon when he was just 4-years-old, and successfully completed the entire Kumon Math Program in ten years. “Kumon has taught me how to think critically, a skill that truly determines intelligence,” said Justin. “Using critical thinking skills, I solve proofs in math, predict possible consequences in social science, and predict the outcomes of lab experiments in biology.” Justin is ranked #1 in his freshman class due to his outstanding GPA from excelling in his honors and advanced placement classes. He even put his math skills to the test competing in the Mathematical Association of America’s American Mathematics Competition when he was in eighth grade. The competition consists of a series of examinations that build problem-solving skills and knowledge for middle and high school students. Justin is proud to say he scored second out of the 9th and 10th graders on the “Franklin Mathletes” team. Outside of the classroom, Justin can be found on the soccer field playing for his competitive team, Sacramento United. With a love for animals, Justin finds time in his busy schedule to volunteer at his local pet sanctuary. He hopes to one day receive his medical degree from Johns Hopkins University and become a neurosurgeon. “Being in charge of someone’s life is scary, but saving lives is what I want to do. I believe this is attainable if I continue to work hard.” Justin’s accomplishments were recognized as he was one of 55 students selected to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference in Calgary, Canada. We had the opportunity to speak to Justin about his Kumon journey. How has Kumon helped you academically? Kumon has made me comfortable with asking for help when I need it, although I tend to dwell on a problem occasionally because I want to figure it out myself. Asking for help is needed sometimes to fully understand concepts both in and out of Kumon. It aids me in achieving perfect scores on school and Kumon tests, and having an in-depth understanding of the material. What do you enjoy most about Kumon? I enjoy that it has given me the ability to confidently work above my grade level. If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be? Rewarding. How has Kumon helped you outside of the classroom? Kumon has helped me develop critical thinking skills that are used in every day activities. Whichever field of study I decide to enter, Kumon will have supported me. For example, a scientist must work with precision through an experiment to gather and analyze data. Additionally, the repetition the program encompasses allows for the development of motor and concentration skills that can be vital in the workforce. Finally, if you’re like me, you like to learn new things, and Kumon inspires me in this way. What did it mean to you attending the Student Conference? I have been doing Kumon since a young age and have praised it for how much it has taught me and how it has propelled me above my peers. Approaching the end of my Kumon experience, I wanted to sum up the purpose of my journey and note any long-term benefits the conference could carry. Being able to build my skills and continue to develop is important to me, and there seemed to be long-term opportunities there. Also, it was a great opportunity to meet others who, like me, try to excel. I wanted to learn new strategies to be successful, hear the speakers stories, and find out what worked for them. Associating with people who share my aspirations and intellectual interests is an important part of my life. Habitually in search of academic and social opportunities, I truly find this Student Conference of great interest. What advice do you have for other Kumon Students? When I first started Kumon, I did not fully understand the benefits. My parents encouraged me to do my Kumon Worksheets every day. Over time, I started to experience the benefits of the program. I would tell kids who were just starting the program that they should continue doing Kumon every day in both subjects until they complete the program. This would give them such a high chance of getting into their dream college and pursuing their dream career. They would also have a lot of confidence in any academic challenge that most other students would not have. Discover even more student success stories.

8 Ways to Beat the Winter Blues

8 Ways to Beat the Winter Blues Photo taken from PTPAs Blogaholics Its SAD that everyone starts to feel down during these cold times, and no I dont mean sad like the emotion, even though it definitely applies! Seasonal Affective Disorder is a type of depression that occurs during the winter months, usually in the beginning of the cold season. And who wouldnt be, especially with this death of a semester system? As a happy-go-lucky college student who never really deals with mood swings and depression, I was kind of shocked when I didnt feel like myself last week. Then again, coming from warm climates, I didnt know that someone could get so depressed in cold weather. I was in this weird funk and I didnt know why until a friend of mine pointed out that I may have been suffering from this concept of SAD. It was odd to me since this was technically the first time ever that I was actually depressed. Curious as I am, I needed to get out of this, so I found 8 ways to beat the winter blues this year: 1.  Exercise.  Whether its a walk outside or a jog in the RPAC, exercise naturally releases endorphins in the body plus relieves you of daily stress. 2.  Eat a healthy diet.  I know this can be difficult, especially being budget-friendly college students with pizza and fast food delivery at the touch of a button. But what you eat greatly affects your energy levels and mood. Stay away from processed carbs (such as white bread and rice) and go for more complex carbs (like whole grains and vegetables), which help stabilize blood sugar and energy levels. 3.  Take in some vitamin D.  Although the most natural way to get your daily dose of vitamin D is from the sun, that can be a little difficult to find in the middle of winter in Ohio. Instead opt for more vitamin D-rich foods such as salmon, milk and eggs, or take a vitamin D supplement instead. 4.  Avoid binge drinking.  I understand its college, but shots of vodka are not the cure for depression and the hangover will definitely not help your mood the morning after. 5.  Be social.  After long hours of studying and spending hours in Thompson, you deserve to have social interaction with the rest of the world. Plan a night out with your friends or a shopping trip to Easton. The anticipation of the event will improve your mood and can keep you motivated. 6.  Relax.  Sometimes this is a difficult concept to comprehend, but it may be one of the best possible things you could do during the cold season. Have some time every day where you do absolutely nothing. Its totally acceptable to sit on the couch for a couple hours to catch up on American Horror Story or Breaking Amish. 7.  Embrace the winter season.  Instead of thinking about all the things you cant do in the cold snow, think of ways you can have fun in the snow. Go ice skating, sledding, or make a snowman on the Oval. Dont forget to end your day with a cup of hot chocolate! 8. Dont forget the ZZZs.  Your body is already in a funk from the changing seasons, and depriving yourself of sleep wont help at all. Make sure youre getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep, and a short 30-minute nap midday can help you re-energize yourself for the rest of the day. Bipolar weather is an understatement here in Ohio (I mean, wasnt it 80 degrees and sunny two weeks ago?!), but with the warm Fall weather coming to an end, well all get through it together. Theres no reason a little bit of wind and snow should keep us from enjoying life. Until then, happy Winter, everyone!

How to Help Improve Your Childs Concentration - ALOHA Mind Math

How to Help Improve Your Childs Concentration Do you feel as though your child is not paying enough attention at school or while doing homework? Conditions like ADHD in kids are a big concern for parents, especially when kids have problems focusing on their work. While this may be a possibility in a few cases, a lot of the time it is because of changes that occur as they are grow up and have more things to think about, as well as varying attention spans. Here are some simple ways to try to improve our child’s concentration at home: Basic needs: Make sure that all basic needs such as food and sleep are satisfactory, as these can be big factors which affect a child’s concentration. It is not easy to pay attention to anything much with a nagging stomach or with needing to yawn every 5 minutes. Once these are out of the way, it is much easier for you to understand how to improve your child’s concentration power. Clear space: It is not easy for children to concentrate if the space around them is cluttered with toys or books, with something or the other attracting their attention away from the main assignment. In case a younger sibling is around, they should also not be a source of distraction, unless you can arrange for both to study quietly in the same environment. Make things interesting: If the work that the child is involved in is a subject that is not so interesting for him, it is very natural for his attention to wander. If you feel this might be the case, then try to make the subject more interesting by introducing some fun activities related to the schoolwork. This could mean a new game on the iPad that touches on the same concepts, or even introducing a fun tool like the abacus to make math calculations more absorbing for the child. Timeouts: On days when your child may have a lot of homework, do not try to make her sit and do it all at once. Fix a time period such as 20 or 30 minutes depending on how long you think your child’s attention span is and pick a timeout activity such as playing a short game, or just running around that will help your child recharge her batteries before getting down to serious work again. Concentration exercises: If you feel that your child needs some additional help to him calm down and focus even after the above steps, teach him some relaxation and concentration exercises using techniques like yoga, which he can use to create a space for himself even in a crowded environment. At Aloha USA, we offer classes in Abacus and English with an interesting and well-scheduled program that will help to keep your child’s attention and help improve their overall concentration.

Who Won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry?

Who Won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry?Winners of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Eugene Wigner and Masatoshi Tanaka, were honored on May 15th, 2020. The Nobel prizes for chemistry are given to individuals who have contributed greatly to the understanding of the nature of the chemical bonds.Chemistry is one of the hardest subjects to study, but can be a rewarding one. Chemistry has given us the scientific method, which has helped people explore new frontiers in science and, in turn, has led to new medicines. Chemists, for example, have learned how to speed up the production of drugs by manufacturing them in their laboratories instead of in large, expensive drug factories.In this century, the Nobel Prizes in Chemistry have been won by the winner of individual chemistry experiments, but also by the chemistry group or institution where the work was done. Theoretical chemists are included in the prize, as well as experimental chemists. In the past, the winning chemist was selected by the Roy al Swedish Academy of Sciences, but it has now become a common practice to choose the winners on the basis of 'novel approach'subject matter'.Chemistry has been a growing field of study ever since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Originally, chemistry was seen as something that engineers and scientists could do, whereas modern scientists are more likely to see chemistry as an area that could lead to better medicine. For example, the discovery of antibiotics, after thousands of years of research, has given us new tools to fight infection.The Nobel Prize in Chemistry is not only given to an individual scientist; it is often used to reward many separate contributions to chemistry. This can happen in the form of a discovery or research program. In the first prize, scientists are considered to have played a major role in creating a single breakthrough, such as the discovery of the chemical bond. In the second prize, many separate discoveries may be responsible for a single bre akthrough, such as the discovery of the structure of the DNA molecule.It is important to realize that a lot of chemistry involves experimentation. In this field, the discoveries and research can sometimes take years to see fruition. As a result, some of the people who win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry often times have continued to make important contributions to their field even after they've won the prize.In the past, Nobel Prize in Chemistry winners was often chosen for a single experiment or research program, but it is becoming increasingly common to see discoveries made over a period of many years. This is a good thing for people who are interested in science and medicine, because the amount of information gained from studying chemistry can help people solve problems in both fields.

Chemicals Abbreviations

Chemicals AbbreviationsThe Ph abbreviation is a very important part of the nature of Chemicals and it will help you understand how to read a book or in chemistry. Chemicals can be defined as the substances that are chemical reactions that alter the chemical composition of the body cells, if you want to have your chemical reactions in the correct proportions.The Ph abbreviation is nothing but the space between the letters of the word. The letters P and H are composed of the the unit and the letter H stands for hydrogen. And if you think that this acronym stands for something you will not be surprised to find out that you will understand much more if you look at the symbols when you do the proper reading of the book or in chemistry.Information on the is very important, because when it comes to the whole system of the physical chemistry and the alkali-metals then it will be very important to know this abbreviation and all the information that it holds. In the laboratory and also in the production of the chemical reactions in the laboratory then knowing the right amount of chlorine and also sodium is very important.The term chlorine helps in the decrease of the excess acidity and reduces the alkalinity. Sodium is an essential element in the concentrations of the alkaline substances and when it has less alkalinity and the right proportion of chlorine then it will be able to reduce the levels of the acidity.Knowing the ph will help you understand why chlorine helps in the chemical reactions in the laboratory. The ph allows the reaction of the chlorine with the water and this reduces the unwanted chemicals such as the formaldehyde which will be eliminated in the process.We must keep in mind that chlorination is used in the manufacture of plasticizers, binder, resins, mineral based cleaning products, lubricants and also cosmetics, hair colors, which are a great way to beautify your skin and your hair. There are many types of cancer cells and some of them are a result o f the exposure to chlorine in the water.If you will try to understand the ph in the context of the three constituents of the alkali metals then you will be able to comprehend the importance of the pa. With the help of this abbreviation it will be easier for you to understand the information and data and the usage of the alkali-metals. This is very important for you to know when you have to maintain the chemical combinations in the presence of the excess acidity.
