The European Space Agency recently launched a study named VIVALDI&nbsp;to understand the effects of space travel on the female body.&nbsp;
20 women will be a part of this study where they will be tucked in waterbeds with minimal movement of their limbs.&nbsp;
This process is called dry immersion and creates situations similar to living in space experiencing supportlessness&nbsp;and weightlessness
It is a crucial process to prepare astronauts to lead a healthy life while in orbit.&nbsp;
The research is being conducted on women especially to understand the physiological and psychological effects on the female gender, a field in which there is great scarcity of data.&nbsp;

A survey by Nature magazine found that 22 per cent of experts have received threats of physical and sexual violence as a result of publicly talking about Covid-19.

‘Eat a bat & die’: scientists face abuse and threats for discussing Covid-19 

A survey of 321 scientists by Nature magazine found that 22 per cent of experts have received threats of physical and sexual violence as a result of publicly talking about Covid-19.  

The pandemic created&nbsp;celebrities out of scientists and health experts
Prominence has come at a price for many scientists in the public eye
22% say they've&nbsp;received threats of physical &amp; sexual violence
15% received death threats for discussing Covid-19 publicly
Massive&nbsp;abuse directed at scientists&nbsp;for&nbsp;contributing to pandemic response
Coping strategies: ignore comments, filter e-mails &amp; block trolls
Abuse on a specific platform? Temporarily disable the account

From speaking on news channels to large social media followings, the pandemic prominence has come at a price for scientists in the public eye.

Leading the guidance and research about the novel coronavirus, the pandemic created celebrities out of scientists and health experts.&nbsp;&nbsp;
From speaking on news channels to active updates on social media, this newfound prominence has come at a price for many scientists in the public eye.&nbsp;A survey of 321 scientists by Nature magazine found that 22 per cent of experts have received threats of physical and sexual violence as&nbsp;a result of publicly talking about Covid-19.

Nearly 15% said they have received death threats&nbsp;and a whopping two-thirds revealed&nbsp;they had had a negative experience after appearing in the media.&nbsp;From threats like &lsquo;I hope you die&rsquo; or &lsquo;I would shoot you&rsquo; to racist remarks like &lsquo;go back to where you came&nbsp;from&rsquo; and &lsquo;eat a bat and die,&rsquo; a&nbsp;massive&nbsp;amount of abuse&nbsp;is directed at scientists&nbsp;for&nbsp;contributing to the pandemic response.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Some of these attacks have&nbsp;also&nbsp;made headlines, including&nbsp;Indian doctors who have been spat at and chased away from their homes as well as&nbsp;UK&rsquo;s chief medical advisor who was assaulted in a park.&nbsp;&nbsp;
For researchers who receive online abuse, Nature suggests individual coping strategies like trying to ignore&nbsp;the comments; filtering&nbsp;e-mails&nbsp;and blocking&nbsp;online&nbsp;trolls; or, for abuse on a specific social media platform, deleting or&nbsp;temporarily&nbsp;deactivating accounts might help.

There are plenty of sayings and slogans to claim that those who hit the sack are early are better off in life. Let's unravel the real truth. 

Early riser or late sleeper: the grass is greener on which side?

There are plenty of sayings and slogans to claim that those who hit the sack are early are better off in life. Let's unravel the real truth.&nbsp;

Do you bounce out of bed at the crack of dawn or are you one of those people who&rsquo;s just about to get into bed at the time?&nbsp;
There are plenty of sayings and slogans to claim that those who hit the sack early are better off in life. But is that really true? Let&rsquo;s take a look at the science of sleep.

First of all, the notion that you&rsquo;re either an early bird or a night owl may not be true. In fact,&nbsp;most&nbsp;of us&nbsp;(that is&nbsp;60 per cent)&nbsp;are&nbsp;an intermediate mix of the two, found a study published in The Journal of Biological and Medical Rhythm Research.&nbsp;
<h3>Who is more productive?&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
When it comes to productivity, it was found that night owls&nbsp;are better at getting their work done in the later hours of the day while early birds function their best in the morning. This doesn&rsquo;t speak to better&nbsp;productivity&nbsp;but simply&nbsp;carries an obvious advantage for career paths with flexible or shift work.
Age also affects your alarm clock preferences. Unsurprisingly,&nbsp;adolescence&nbsp;is more skewed towards&nbsp;the owl chronotype. As you get older,&nbsp;it is more common to shift&nbsp;preferences&nbsp;to&nbsp;the&nbsp;more wee&nbsp;hours of the&nbsp;morning.
<h3>Who is happier?&nbsp;</h3>
Most studies have observed a link between being a morning person and better happiness.&nbsp;A recent study of Turkish students published in the same journal found that&nbsp;those who self-professed as being morning persons also reported higher scores in measures of happiness.
Another study from the&nbsp;University of Leipzig in Germany discovered that early birds also exhibit greater&nbsp;satisfaction with life and are typically less vulnerable to mental health problems.
<h3>Why are morning people so&nbsp;much better off?&nbsp;</h3>
While the science is unclear, &lsquo;social jet lag&rsquo; may be one way to explain it. People&nbsp;who naturally like late nights are out of sync with society&rsquo;s expectations of when to sleep and when to start work.&nbsp;This means nights owls may be more likely to have sleep problems which&nbsp;could, in turn, open the door&nbsp;to other mental issues.

If you are annoyed by seeing people fidget, you may suffer from a condition that scientists call misokinesia meaning ‘hatred of movements.’  

Misokinesia: Hate seeing people fidget? There’s a name for that feeling

If you are annoyed by seeing people fidget, you may suffer from a condition that scientists call&nbsp;misokinesia&nbsp;meaning &lsquo;hatred of movements.&rsquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hate seeing people fidget? There’s a name for that feeling

If you're annoyed by fidgeting, scientists say you're not alone!
It's a condition called misokinesia, meaning hatred of movements
1 in 3 suffer from the condition, found a study of 4,100 people
Common reactions to fidgeting: anger, anxiety or frustration
Sufferers may face difficulty &amp; reduced enjoyment in social situations
Some may even engage in fewer social activities due to&nbsp;misokinesia
Feelings of empathy have a major role in causing&nbsp;misokinesia&nbsp;
Sufferers may mirror the anxiety or nervousness of people around them
Scientists are still on the lookout for better explanations for its cause

Do you feel incessantly annoyed when people around you won&rsquo;t stop fidgeting? Turns out, you are not alone! In fact, scientists define the condition as&nbsp;misokinesia&nbsp;meaning &lsquo;hatred of movements.&rsquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;
A recent study of 4,100 people in Canada discovered that one in three people actually have the condition.&nbsp;These&nbsp;people&nbsp;can&nbsp;experience reactions such as anger, anxiety or frustration when they watch someone fidget.&nbsp;
The first of its kind study&nbsp;was recently&nbsp;published in&nbsp;Scientific Reports&nbsp;and&nbsp;found that people with&nbsp;misokinesia&nbsp;may&nbsp;face&nbsp;difficulty and reduced enjoyment in social situations, at work&nbsp;or in&nbsp;learning environments. In extreme cases, they might even engage in fewer social activities due to the condition.&nbsp;
While research on the topic is limited, researchers estimate that empathy has a major role to play in the condition. A common reason behind fidgeting&nbsp;can be&nbsp;anxiety or nervousness.&nbsp;The behaviour is also common in people with ADHD. And when people with&nbsp;misokinesia&nbsp;see that, they may mirror it and feel anxious or nervous as well.&nbsp;
While researchers are still looking for&nbsp;a better&nbsp;explanation, the recognition of the condition&nbsp;offers some solace to people who might have thought they were alone&nbsp;or weird&nbsp;because they&nbsp;feel this way.

In a historic first, Russia has launched a&nbsp;three-member film crew&nbsp;into space to make the world's first feature film in orbit, a project that the prestige of Russia's space&nbsp;programme is banking on.
Russian actor Yulia&nbsp;Peresild&nbsp;was selected to star in the first feature film shot up in space, while director Klim&nbsp;Shipenko&nbsp;will be shooting the movie.&nbsp;Veteran cosmonaut Anton&nbsp;Shkaplerov&nbsp;will be leading and commanding the launch of the Soyuz MS-19 rocket.&nbsp;
The crew plans to film segments of a new movie entitled "Challenge", which is the story of a surgeon who was summoned to the space station to save a crew member who suffers a heart condition.&nbsp;
The trip to space for Yulia&nbsp;Peresild&nbsp;and&nbsp;Klim&nbsp;Shipenko&nbsp;got the green signal, after&nbsp;rounds of medical tests and zero gravity simulations on Earth to be able to remain functional amid the weightlessness.&nbsp;If all goes well, the Russian crew will beat a Hollywood project announced last year by 'Mission Impossible' star Tom Cruise together with NASA and Elon Musk&rsquo;s SpaceX.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Filmmaker Klim&nbsp;Shipenko&nbsp;said, a major motivator for the film was opening&nbsp;the idea of space travel up to a wider audience. He also acknowledged that while no one can become a cosmonaut in four months, it is possible to become a crew member on board a spacecraft.&nbsp;&nbsp;
"Promoting this sector is very important,"&nbsp;Shipenko&nbsp;said. "Maybe we can encourage other people to go to space."&nbsp;
Speaking at the Russian launch facility in Baikonur, Kazakhstan,&nbsp;Peresild&nbsp;also admitted that training for the mission had been&nbsp;gruelling, but he described it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.&nbsp;
The 37-year-old actor said it was difficult for her to adapt to the strict discipline and rigorous demands required during the training. "We have the opportunity to fly to space, and not just fly there but to do what we know best on Earth- to make a film," she said in an interview last week.&nbsp;
The crew has taken off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. After 12 days on the space outpost, the crew will return to Earth on October 17.&nbsp;

Professor Sarah Gilbert, creator of AstraZeneca&nbsp;vaccine said that Covid-19 is unlikely mutate into a deadlier variant.&nbsp;
It will eventually just be a 'common cold', just like four other coronaviruses&nbsp;that circulate widely in the air.&nbsp;
Speaking at Royal Medical Society seminar, she also said that work on a tweaked vaccine against Beta variant only gave 'slightly better' immune response. However, data is still being collected on it.&nbsp;
Professor Gilbert's comments come just as Professor Chris Witty, Chief Medical Officer of England warned that non&nbsp;vaccinated children are at a risk of contracting Covid-19 at least once.&nbsp;
