Saarela, J.M., P.C. Sokoloff and R.D. Bull --Botany Section & Centre for Arctic Knowledge and Exploration, Research & Collections, Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa, Ontario K1P 6P4 Oral presentation delivered at ArcticNet Annual Science Meeting 2015, Vancouver, December 2015. Presentation abstract book: pg. 107. Available from: http://www.arcticnetmeetings.ca/asm2015/docs/topical-abstracts.pdf (accessed 4 May 2016). ABSTRACT: Exploration of the vascular plant flora of the Canadian Arctic has been ongoing for almost two hundred years, yet substantial gaps remain in our floristic understanding of this large, rapidly changing and difficult-to-access ecozone. Detailed baseline information on thediversity and distribution of Arctic plants is urgently needed to understand the potential impacts of climate change on the region’s flora. In July 2014 we explored the rich flora along a Subarctic to Arctic gradient along the Coppermine River valley in western Nunavut, including Bloody Falls/Kugluk Territorial Park and Kugluktuk and vicinity. In this botanically underexplored area the treeline reaches its northern limit in Nunavut, just 40 km south of the Arctic coast. Study of our >1000 new and all previous collections of vascular plants document some 304 species in the area, comprising a mixture of boreal taxa (most at their northern limit), Arctic taxa (some at their southern limit), and amphi-Beringian taxa (some at their eastern limit). Among our collections are many first records for Nunavut (Allium schoenoprasum, Botrychium tunux, Draba lonchocarpa, Eleocharis quinqueflora, Eremogone capillaris subsp. capillaris, Festuca altaica, Polygonum aviculare, Salix ovalifolia var. arctolitoralis, S. ovalifolia var. ovalifolia, Stuckenia pectinata), mainland Nunavut (Carex gynocrates, C. livida, Cryptogramma stelleri, Juncus alpinoarticulatus subsp. americanus, Salix pseudomyrsinites), numerous northern and southern range extensions for boreal and Arctic species (Anthoxanthum arcticum, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Betula occidentalis, Carex adelostoma, C. capitata, C. lachenallii, C. norvegica, C. petricosa subsp. petricosa, Castilleja raupii, Draba simmonsii, Epilobium arcticum, E. davuricum, Festuca viviparoidea subsp. viviparoidea, Hordeum jubatum subsp. intermedium, Juniperus communis subsp. depressa, Linnaea borealis subsp. americana, Potamogeton gramineus, Rubus arcticus subsp. acaulis, Sagina nodosa subsp. borealis, Stellaria borealis subsp. borealis, Shepherdia canadensis, Taraxacum phymatocarpum, Utricularia intermedia, U. vulgaris) and many first records for the study area, which fill in gaps in the known distributions of Arctic species. Several species in the area reach their known northern limits in Nunavut in Kugluk/Bloody Falls Territorial Park, a protected site. The many floristic novelties identified for the study area underscore the fact that there remains much to learn about vascular plant biodiversity in Canada's low Arctic.

Jeff Saarela

ABSTRACT: Core functions of museums are the collection, long-term preservation, stewardship and curation of specimens, facilitating access to these specimens – physically and digitally – for research purposes, and engaging and educating the public about the world around them. Biological and geological specimens from the Arctic and their associated collection data are a diverse, important and increasingly valuable component of the polar information spectrum. Natural history specimens are data themselves, documenting the distribution of species in time and space; they serve as vouchers for datasets, allowing future workers to go back to original material to confirm or revise identifications; and they are also sources of new data (morphology, anatomy, toxicology, genetic information). The development of international standards (e.g., the Darwin Core) and best practices to facilitate interoperability and sharing of biodiversity occurrence data has allowed institutions to easily share their collection data on their own websites, and through national, regional and international indexing portals such as the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). This successful example of data management and interoperability could serve as a model for the polar community. The research and public outreach potential of Arctic collections data is enormous, but a challenge that many natural history museums are facing is the massive task of databasing and imaging the collection so that it may be mobilized, discovered, shared and used. The Canadian Museum of Nature, founding member of the international Arctic Natural History Museums Alliance, houses the largest – and continually growing – collection of natural history specimens from the Canadian Arctic, with ca. 260K Arctic specimens (including >550 type specimens). Some 154K of our specimens from north of 60 degrees are digitized and freely accessible online (http://collections.nature.ca/en/Search) and shared through GBIF. Natural history museums need to be more involved in Arctic science discussions to raise awareness and increase usage of their rich data resources.

This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing . Early Life and Career Childhood and Athletic Beginnings Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle. Transition to Acting Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness. Fitness Regimen Workout Routine Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show. Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles. Importance of Flexibility and Mobility In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...

i3 Health

i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource. This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma. STATEMENT OF NEED Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL. Target Audience Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Learning Objectives 1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL 2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults 3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnataka

addon Scans

As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions. Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says. This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots. To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare. Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself. Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places. Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages. Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
