Heart and vessels form a highly complex organ system in which extremely diverse cells have to work together correctly to provide all organs with blood. In past decades, heart biology placed its focus on whole tissues or cell isolates. Now, however, new technologies allow the tracing of a diversity of cell types and their individual responses to signals down to the level of proteins and genes. Researchers hope this will help them better support the regeneration of diseased hearts.

Nowadays almost everyone is aware of the link between high blood cholesterol levels and cardiovascular disease. There are effective treatments that target blood cholesterol. his overview highlights some well known and some new mediators implicated in cardiovascular disease with the common theme that all of them can be influenced by the diet.
In his widely acclaimed book “Das Kalte Herz” (The Cold Heart), economic historian Werner Plumpe tells the story of the history of capitalism, which in his view represents a sober form of economics which has proved itself superior and higher performing than other systems. To this day, the long tradition of capitalism criticism has not understood that in capitalism, great wealth is utilized to produce goods that are usually affordable for people with small incomes.
As a network researcher, sociologist Professor Christian Stegbauer also deals with communication in social media. That people prefer to stay in a bubble with like-minded others rather than get to grips with different opinions and ways of thinking was in his view inherent to digital communication from the outset. He considers many of the utopian ideas of a digital culture of participation to be exaggerated.
The healthcare industry sees great potential in consolidating medical data on one and the same person which is currently distributed across various practices and hospitals. This would not only save costs on repeating procedures; physicians also hope that artificial intelligence will help them identify new connections and thereby treat diseases earlier, or even prevent them.
Introduction: In this article the personal study and life situation of parents who are also medical students at the Medical School of the Goethe University Frankfurt am Main is discussed. There is a special focus on the topics "studying with children" and "family-friendly university", which have been present in discussions about university development and in the daily life of academics, especially during the last decade. The workgroup "Individual Student Services" at the medical faculty at the Goethe University tries to meet the necessities of the individual study courses and to support the study success with a new counselling and student service concept.
Methods: The experience of parents studying medicine was recorded in semi-structured interviews (Date: April 2010), which were held as part of the sponsored pilot project on part-time medical studies ("Pilot Project Part-time Medical Studies"). Additionally, study results from the Medical School of the Goethe University Frankfurt am Main were integrated as well as a literature analysis.
Results: It was found that the teaching demands and support services, which have been suggested and needed for years now, have been partially implemented and are without sufficient support at the faculty level to date. Thus the current situation of medical students with children is still difficult and seems a big challenge for everyone involved.
Solution: As part of the "Individual Student Services" a new pilot project on part-time medical studies was established in November 2009. Only the use of new, unconventional and innovative ideas allows universities to adequately support the changing and heterogeneous student population and support them to successfully completing their medical studies.
