Issue 30, August 5, 2013
Each week, to enhance awareness of emerging scientific knowledge, selected science clips will be posted here for the public health community. The focus is applied public health research and prevention science that has the capacity to improve health now.
This week, Science Clips is pleased to collaborate with CDC Vital Signs by featuring scientific articles concerning Progress on Childhood Obesity (www.cdc.gov/vitalsigns). Those articles marked with an asterisk are general review articles which may be of particular interest to clinicians and public health professionals seeking background information in this area.
The report consists of three components:
- Key scientific articles in featured topic areas (this week featuring Chronic Diseases and Conditions - Obesity in conjunction with CDC Vital Signs)
- CDC-authored publications
- Public health articles noted in the media
