Ep. 7: Fitbit, Labeling, Language Patterns, Prostate
Manage episode 204343539 series 2286057
The US government might give you a free Fitbit if you agree share all your data. We try really hard to understand gene expression (little help, Nature readers?). It turns out that LOTS of legal medical marijuana is mislabeled (hello, THC!). And we learn that wives of British men with prostate cancer can soon look forward to some helpful new pamphlets.
Better said, here are this week's four stories!
