  • Research for All of Us

    The All of Us Research Program is a nationwide NIH initiative aiming to build one of the largest and most diverse health databases in history by enrolling one million or more people across the U.S. Its purpose is to accelerate precision medicine—research that tailors prevention and treatment to each individual. Participants share surveys, electronic health records, physical measurements, and biological samples, creating a rich dataset and extensive health information. Gundersen Foundation's Dr. Todd Mahr discussed the program on W-I-Z-M's LaCrosseTalk.

  • MIGRAINES728

    There are many types of headaches, migraine is very well known because of the symptoms it causes. They are also more common than you might think, impacting about 11 to 17% of the United States population, according to research published in the journal Headache. Another interesting fact is they tend to impact women more than men. These are headaches that are so severe that they often cause the individual to avoid social situations, miss work, and can lead to depression or even suicidal ideation. Dr. Alaa Abd-Elsayed, anesthesiologist, UW Health, and professor of anesthesiology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, talks about treatment, causes and symptoms.
