The Effects Of Alcohol On The Developing Drosophila Nervous System, Erica E. Hassoun
The Cardinal Edge
Ethanol is the most common human teratogen, contributing to fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) when effects are the most severe. Key effects of fetal alcohol syndrome are observed in the nervous system. The high prevalence of prenatal alcohol exposure necessitates novel treatment and prevention methods. However, ethical issues prevent researching humans in utero. For this reason, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster has emerged as a model organism for studying FAS. Because Drosophila is a small and non-placental organism, its environment can be easily controlled, allowing for specific doses and time periods of ethanol exposure to be studied. This review discusses findings …

What’S The Hang-Up On Hangovers?, Anthony Isenhour
Osmosis Magazine
Getting a hangover after drinking the night before can lead to varying regrets the next morning depending on a variety of factors including gender, weight, food consumption, and alcohol consumption. What a hangover feels like can vary a lot too: headaches, nausea, fatigue, etc.
Scientists are interested in understanding hangovers and how to prevent them because they experience them too.

Predicting Young Adults’ Intentions And Involvement In Alcohol-Influenced Aquatic Activity, Hannah L M Calverley, Lauren A. Petrass Ph.D., Jennifer D. Blitvich
International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education
Globally, alcohol consumption is a public health issue and a risk factor for drownings among young adults. While studies have identified a prominence of alcohol in youth drownings, little is known about the factors that influence young adults’ involvement in alcohol-influenced aquatic activity. The current study aimed to identify the predictors of young adults’ intention to participate, and past participation, in alcohol-influenced aquatic activity. A reliable and valid survey, informed by the Theory of Planned Behavior, was distributed to young adults (aged 18-24 years) educated in the UK and Australia. Cumulative odds ordinal logistic regressions with proportional odds were …
