The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) announced the extension to one of its most heavily ridden routes, the #9 Ashland, to the Ravenswood Metra station located at Lawrence and Ravenswood.

More than 4,100 University of Illinois Chicago students have signed up to receive the new U-Pass + Metra, a pass that gives them unlimited rides on Metra and the CTA for a reduced fare price under a one-year pilot program.

In part two: host Manoush Zomorodi delves into how we met and fell hard for the personal computer—and why we continue to have this committed, yet tortuous relationship. We hear from historian Laine Nooney on how the computer revolution forever changed the way we use our bodies at work, at school and at home.

Manoush also visits the Exercise Testing Laboratory at Columbia University Medical Center where researchers collect data on how her body responds to a day of sitting compared to a day of constant movement breaks.

TORONTO, ON - Hummingbird metabolism is a marvel of evolutionary engineering. These tiny birds can power all of their energetic hovering flight by burning the sugar contained in the floral nectar of their diet. Now new research from the University of Toronto Scarborough shows they are equally adept at burning both glucose and fructose, which […]
