Hypertension – or high blood pressure as it is more commonly known – is the topic of a Science Café being presented Sept. 21 at 6:30 p.m. at the Steel Grill, 2800 N. 10th<\/sup> St., in Scottsbluff, Neb.<\/font><\/p>\n

Darwin Brown, an assistant professor in physician assistant education in the School of Allied Health Professions at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, will present, “Let food be your medicine: Chocolate, wine and salt.”<\/font><\/p>\n

His presentation will look at some of the more novel issues related to controlling blood pressure, focusing on dietary options. In addition, he will touch on general concepts for management of blood pressure and will field questions from the audience. <\/font><\/p>\n

Brown is the clinical coordinator of the physician assistant (PA) program at UNMC. He has been in clinical practice (general internal medicine) for 23 years, spending the last 12 years as a full-time faculty member in the PA program.  <\/span><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Science Cafe is a free educational event sponsored by UNMC and other groups to increase the population’s science literacy. Hosted by UNMC, BioNebraska and the Nebraska Coalition for Lifesaving Cures, <\/span>Science Cafes are held the first Tuesday of each month in Omaha and one Thursday every other month in Lincoln. The Scottsbluff event is being held in conjunction with the leadership team of the UNMC School of Allied Health Professions making its annual visit to several Nebraska communities. <\/span><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

 <\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

A more scientifically literate populace is a goal in UNMC’s strategic plan. The goal of the committee has been to introduce and get young adults interested in science by presenting it in a casual setting.<\/font><\/font><\/span><\/p>\n
