Diabetes & Dogs! NSF Science Now 60

The video discusses three scientific breakthroughs. First, a new therapy developed by Purdue engineers could reduce insulin injections for diabetes in dogs and humans. Second, a study by the University of Washington shows that intensive reading programs can improve reading skills and alter brain connectivity in children. Lastly, research on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet reveals historical ice movement, providing insights into future climate change impacts.
