“One of the fascinating things about endometriosis is that it’s so multifactorial. There’s a lot about the disease itself that we don’t understand, and it deserves a lot more attention,” says Sawsan As-Sanie, MD, director of the Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Consultative Clinic, USA. Endometriosis is easy to misdiagnose because its symptoms can be associated with other illnesses, she adds. Despite symptoms, the diagnosis often comes painfully late.

As Juergen Hasenkopf picked up his heavy bag from the car boot, Bur Dubai’s streets were bursting with life in the middle of the night.

Hasenkopf loves walking. He effortlessly climbs the stairs at the world’s most iconic tennis stadiums while carrying his heavy camera…

I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. As a long day of meetings at last week’s Game Developers Conference came to an end, I walked into a conference room to play one last game. I didn’t know much about it beyond its title, Empire of the Ants, and the fact that it featured “photorealistic ants.” It was the exact kind of curiosity-inducing sales pitch that I seek out at video game events like this, though I wasn’t expecting much more than an oddball curiosity. When I finally sat down at a PC and saw hundreds of intricately detailed ants milling…

Our car screeched to a halt when the traffic light suddenly turned red at Republic Square or Hraparak (as the locals call it) in the Armenian capital Yerevan. A woman in high heels and a striking outfit crossed the road slowly. Our driver Ashot, with a naughty look tells us that’s not Kim Kardashian. “Kim is Armenian, she is beautiful but no living here,” he mutters in broken English.
