About us
Science Blog was started in August 2002. It lives, breathes and eats press releases from research organizations around the globe. Most of what you read here are press releases from the outfits named in the stories themselves. Got a news story you think belongs here? Let's talk. The other half of the equation is blog posts from readers like you. So if you have an interest in science, please register and join others like you in an ongoing, vibrant dialog about what makes the world tick.

"important aspects to consider when designing programs to reduce the risk of pregnancy among African-American adolescent females," say Susan L. Davies, Ph.D., of the University of Alabama at Birmingham and colleagues.
...and not see how this study has identified a problem (regardless of how it fits into a wider picture) and that the resulting data will help to create better programs for African American women, then you are guilty of opression and ignorance.
Let's stop playing the "racist" card already!
