Letter To The Editor: Donnis Campbell Celebrated for 6,300 Hours of Volunteer Service
Letter To The Editor: April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month, and I’m writing today to celebrate someone who has spent the last four years helping make recovery possible for more people in Illinois. As an AmeriCorps member with Recovery Corps, Donnis Campbell has focused on supporting individuals at Chestnut Health Systems as they build a healthy life in recovery from substance use disorder. Over the past four years, she has given a total of 6,300 hours to help people achieve their goals! Donnis meets with program participants and provides guidance as they navigate resources, set goals, and develop recovery action plans. With Donnis offering individualized support, we’ve seen people overcome barriers and ultimately maintain progress in their recovery. I especially have been proud of how she’s used her own experience in recovery to connect with others and provide mentoring and peer support. I couldn’t let the program year end without acknowledging

New Chronotherapy Research Could Eliminate Daily Injections for People With Rheumatoid or Juvenile Arthritis
ST. LOUIS - With nearly 1.5 million people suffering from rheumatoid and juvenile arthritis in the United States, researchers at Shriners Children’s St. Louis have discovered a new revolutionary way to potentially minimize flare-ups and symptoms while preventing the progression of the disease. Shriners Children’s St. Louis Director of Research Dr. Farshid Guilak recently published findings on a revolutionary new method of “chronotherapy,” the administration of drugs based on the body’s circadian rhythm, potentially changing the way the condition is treated in the future. Circadian rhythm refers to the body's 24-hour clock which is regulated by the brain and responds to light. Using a combination of synthetic biology and tissue engineering, Dr. Guilak’s research team developed circadian-based gene circuits, termed “chronogenetics,” that can be programmed into stem cells that, once implanted in the body, align with a patient’s

Reducing Food Waste with Smarter Shopping Habits: A Path to Sustainability
Did you know that one-third of all food produced globally is wasted? That's approximately 1.3 billion tons of food each year, equivalent to the annual greenhouse gas emissions of nearly 1 billion cars. This staggering statistic not only highlights a pressing environmental issue but also underscores the importance of rethinking our shopping habits to combat food waste. As consumers, we hold significant power over food production and waste. By adopting smarter shopping habits, we can reduce the amount of food that ends up in landfills and, at the same time, save money and resources. Let’s explore practical strategies that can help you shop mindfully and contribute to a more sustainable future. Understanding the Impact of Food Waste Before diving into strategies for reducing food waste, it's essential to understand its implications. Food waste contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, strains land and water resources, and represents a significant financial loss for households.
