Despite abundant anecdotal evidence that creativity is associated with living in foreign countries, there is currently little empirical evidence for this relationship. Five studies employing a multimethod approach systematically explored the link between living abroad and creativity. Using both individual and dyadic creativity tasks, Studies 1 and 2 provided initial demonstrations that time spe...

Two previous editorials have referred to the international nature of physiology, the first from Presidents of the American Physiological Society (1) and the second from the Executive Committee of IUPS (10). The larger societies within the IUPS family hold meetings that are attended by scientists from many countries. This is not restricted to the US and UK societies. I recently lectured to the a...

An 89-year-old woman, with a past history of systemic hypertension, aortic stenosis, and iron deficiency anemia and on treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, lisinopril, and acetylsalicylic acid, was seen for an asymptomatic lesion that had arisen a month earlier in her left frontoparietal region. She had been treated with topical corticosteroids, which were prescribed for suspected contact eczema...

We give a graph theoretical proof for the existence of a walk connecting left and right sides of a rectangle when it is partitioned into (finitely many) rectangles colored in a specific way, and the walk is aloud to use only borders between rectangles of different color. The problem was originally introduced by J.R. Isbell in the proof of his Zig-Zag Theorem. We prove the existence of such a wa...
