Stefan Jockusch (vice president, strategy), head of the Siemens PLM visited the University of Cincinnati's Siemens Simulation Technology Center and interacted with members.

UC College of Engineering and Applied Science professor Jay Kim gave a presentation to the strategy team about the vision of the simulation center and how UC plans to integrate the Siemens PLM tools into the academic curriculum at UC and share the academic package built with Siemens.

Additionally, UC engineering professor Sam Anand went into detail about the academic modules he has developed for the course “CAD for Manufacturing” using Siemens PLM tools and his research work in the field of additive manufacturing.

Graduate assistants working in the simulation center presented examples of problems they have developed for different courses in which they have implemented the PLM tools. It was followed by a working lunch and discussion about future plan for the simulation center.

Women consistently experience more pain than men across 11 body parts

October 12, 2026

A large global study spanning 118 countries, published in Nature Medicine, has found that women consistently report more pain than men across 11 bodily sites, including the back, head, face, knees, chest, abdomen and hips. The study also found that, across sexes, the sharpest increases in self-reported pain tend to occur before age 55. These findings may inform a new approach to chronic pain prevention and management throughout the lifespan. Shuchita Garg, MD, an associate professor of clinical medicine at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Division of Chronic Pain, within the Department of Anesthesia, and the medical director of the UC Medical Center Pain Clinic, who was not involved in this study, commented on the findings for Medical News Today (MNT).
