Jovanna Mathai of Des Plaines, a Sophomore at Elk Grove High School , is a Delegate to the Congress of Future Medical Leaders on June 26th and 27th, 2021
The Congress is an honors-only program for high school students who want to become physicians or go into medical research fields. The purpose of this event is to honor, inspire, motivate and direct the top students in the country interested in these careers, to stay true to their dream and, after the event, to provide a path, plan and resources to help them reach their goal.
Members of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital branch of the Ghana Association of Medical Laboratory Scientists (GAMLS) continued their sit down strike yesterday, despite an appeal by the Ghana Health Service to call off their protest and rather table their grievances.

Researchers make ‘bombshell’ discovery of an entirely new kind of biomolecule
A newfound biomolecule, consisting of RNA modified by sugars, could be present in all forms of life and might contribute to autoimmune disease. By Holly Alyssa MacCormick
Stanford researchers have discovered a new kind of biomolecule that could play a significant role in the biology of all living things.
The novel biomolecule, dubbed glycoRNA, is a small ribbon of ribonucleic acid (RNA) with sugar molecules, called glycans, dangling from it. Up until now, the only kinds of similarly sugar-decorated biomolecules known to science were fats (lipids) and proteins. These glycolipids and glycoproteins appear ubiquitously in and on animal, plant and microbial cells, contributing to a wide range of processes essential for life.
