Video summary of the news of the week.

BioarabaAraba will
have a health research institute dedicated to the investigation of sleep apneas and psychotic manifestations. The Institute will be born under the name of Bioaraba and will be located in the University Hospital that will be constituted by the Txagorritxu and Santiago Hospitals. If things are going well, the researchers will be working at the new research centre in five years. More than half of Osakidetza’s research work in the field of psychiatry is carried out in Álava.


Food securitySeveral
global organizations are working on regulations for sustainable agriculture and livestock husbandry. Although the main objectives are food safety and quality, animal welfare, environmental protection and sustainability will be fundamental in the new regulation.

The magnetism of the oceans A
team of European researchers will try to measure the movement according to the magnetism of the oceans. To make these measurements, three satellites called Swarn will be sent into space in 2012. The trio of satellites will observe marine currents accurately to report their effects. The movement of saltwater in the oceans creates an electric field that in turn forms another magnetic field. Through the study, researchers hope to better understand how the oceans distribute heat across the Earth. In this way, the dynamics of the climate will be better known.

Bike air bagBike itself
is a healthy and eco-friendly means of transport. However, in the event of accidents, scrappers suffer serious consequences due to their lack of protection. Some Swedish researchers have devised a device that could improve this situation. It's a scarf-shaped airbag. If the sensors inside it detect a sudden collision, it starts.
