Motion capture has thus far mostly been confined to Hollywood studios, but the technology -- which involves people wearing spandex suits that have ping-pong-like ball attached to them -- is not entering the health care space. For movies, those small white orbs, which are actually reflexive markers that infrared cameras track, produce data that are then used to generate realistic movements. Hospitals are now using the technology to analyze movements of patients with conditions that limit movement, like Parkinson's disease. And instead of visual effects artists translating the data to realistic movement, physical therapists analyze the captured motion to make to make treatment recommendations.

On December 25, model, actor, and television host Alena Vodonaeva wrote a long, emotional post on Instagram where she reacted to news from the Samara region about local officials asking private health clinics to refuse abortion services. "Unfortunately, we live in an impoverished and greedy country, and if you're not sure you can provide yourself and you child with knowledge, medicine, food, and clothing, then you simply don't need to give birth," Vodonaeva explained.
