During the past week we've discussed a number of great links; on Google+, Twitter, the 'Paper' and so on. Here are a few of my favourites.
- Stir Kinetic Desk : This week we looked at yet more wearable devices (particularly the Myo ), as well as the promise of 'fitness tracking everywhere' in the form of the Stir Kinetic Desk . Somewhat on the expensive side, though a very interesting idea.
- Alzheimer's Treatment Targeting Blood Vessels : The promising research surrounding Alzheimer's continues. This we we look at a potential treatment using blood vessels, as well as the idea of growing neurons to repair damaged brains. Fantastic.
- Youth Sport Injuries May Lead to Adult Brain Disease : More information this week on brain injuries in sports. Of particular note : Repeated Blows to Head Linked to Brain Changes , Youth Sport Injuries May Lead to Adult Brain Disease and Former NFL Player's Body Exhumed for Brain Study . Very interesting area.
- Predictions for 2014 : We've looked at some pretty incredible fitness-related technologies this year. Now it's time to peer a short distance into the future - here are a few of the things I'd expect to see in 2014 .
We also talked about Testing Vit D Levels Using Your 'Phone, Fixing Complex Injuries Using 3D-Printed Implants and a whole lot more. Keep up with the world of Health & Fitness in the Straight to the Bar Community on Google+.
