FlipboardWhen Spanish colonizers established a town in the mountains of Bolivia in the 1500s, they might have expected to expand their communities by having babies, but they could not. While Indigenous folks raised families, not a single child of European descent was born for decades. It was all down to the lack of oxygen at altitude, which the settlers were not genetically adapted to deal with. <a href="https://mstdn.science/@KnowableMag" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@KnowableMag</a> reports on how scientists are now studying this to see if they can help pregnant people whose bodies are struggling to provide enough oxygen to their fetuses, at any altitude. <a href="https://knowablemagazine.org/content/article/health-disease/2025/overcoming-risks-of-pregnancy-at-high-elevation" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://knowablemagazine.org/content/article/health-disease/2025/overcoming-risks-of-pregnancy-at-high-elevation</a><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Biology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Biology</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Medicine</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Pregnancy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pregnancy</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Newstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Newstodon</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/NewstodonFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NewstodonFriday</a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/FollowFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FollowFriday</a>
