even given its name, a select group of scientists in Germany, assembled by married couple and decades-long research partners Ugur Sahin and Özlem Türeci, began building 20 potential vaccines.As the deadly disease spread from country to country, what followed was a desperate race against time to conduct rigorous tests and clinical trials, whilst navigating political interference and seeking the support of the pharmaceutical industry.Shedding a light on the science behind the breakthrough, The Vaccine tells the story of the trailblazers who led the fightback against Covid-19, whose discoveries could now help the world tackle cancer, along with many other pervasive diseases.

Par Han C.G. Kemper. 2016
Wat is nu precies de invloed van bewegen en sport op de gezondheid en fitheid van jongeren? Dit boek geeft…
actuele, wetenschappelijke informatie over fysiologische aspecten van groei, ontwikkeling en rijping van jongeren. Daarmee biedt het inzicht in de effecten van lichaamsbeweging op hun gezondheid. Fysiologische en anatomische verschillen tussen opgroeiende jongeren, jongens en meisjes worden op een heldere wijze uitgelegd. Waarom bijvoorbeeld hebben verschillen in proporties van kinderen (met kortere armen, benen en groter hoofd) invloed op het lichamelijke prestatievermogen? Tegelijk wordt afgerekend met een aantal vooroordelen. Zo groeien pubers niet uit hun krachten en leveren fysiek vroegrijpe kinderen niet de grootste sporttalenten op.De auteur behandelt niet alleen alledaagse activiteiten als fietsen, wandelen en traplopen, maar ook het sporten op school en in de vrije tijd. Alle vormen van lichaamsbeweging worden uitvoerig en kritisch besproken. Hoe kun je het activiteitenpatroon van jongeren beïnvloeden? Zowel objectieve beweegmonitoren en hartslagentellers als hippe beweeggadgets worden op waarde geschat. Ook de ethische kanten van (top)sportbeoefening door kinderen en talent scouting bij jongeren worden voor het voetlicht gebracht. De auteur sluit af met een pleidooi voor een ¿beweegvriendelijke¿ woon- en leefomgeving met veilige voet- en fietspaden. Een integrale aanpak van de bewegingsarmoede bij jongeren kan de nadelige invloed van te weinig lichaamsbeweging op de gezondheid voorkomen.Fitte kinderen, sportieve tieners is bestemd voor iedereen die beroepsmatig geïnteresseerd is in het bewegen van jongeren. Daaronder vallen kinder-, school- en jeugdartsen, fysiologen, fysiotherapeuten, vakleerkrachten bewegen en sport en sporttrainers, maar ook psychologen, pedagogen en ouders of verzorgers.Praktische echocardiografie
