For example, if you witness a man in a blue sweater stealing something, then overhear people talking about a gray shirt, how likely are you to remember the real color of the thief's sweater? Studies have shown that when people are told false information about an event, they become less likely to remember what actually happened - it is easy to mix up the real facts with fake ones. However, there is evidence that when people are forced to recall what they witnessed (shortly after the event), they are more likely to remember details of what really happened. http://www.physorg.com/news152378697.html Medicine & Health Wed, 28 Jan 2009 15:25:17 EST news152378697 While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Drug has quickened review and approval of new medicines, the complex nature of diseases for which new therapeutics are being developed has resulted in longer clinical development times, according to the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development. http://www.physorg.com/news150647377.html Medicine & Health Thu, 08 Jan 2009 14:29:37 EST news150647377
