Research Features – Issue 140 : political rhetoric, plant-based proteins and pesky pests

The most recent issue of Research Features contains a diverse array of research from around the globe, featuring articles across the medical sciences and beyond. We discuss vaccine hesitancy with Dr Renuka Ananth Kalyan Kadali, and what can be done to ease people’s minds about potential side effects.

Next, we look at the work that is being done to improve mobility for people who have had cervical spinal cord injuries, as well as a study into how simplifying procedures in a triage unit could save both time and lives.
