Idaho State University to Commence $7.9 Million Lab Expansion to Address Physician Shortage

Idaho State University to Commence $7.9 Million Lab Expansion to Address Physician Shortage

Idaho State University (ISU) is set to begin a $7.9 million lab expansion project at its Meridian campus this fall. This initiative aims to enhance the university's medical education facilities, specifically by adding a 16-station human anatomy lab and a two-station embalming suite to the L.S. and Aline W. Skaggs Treasure Valley Anatomy and Physiology Laboratories. The existing facility, which currently houses a 34-station anatomy lab, has seen a significant increase in demand, growing from approximately 50 learners to over 2,000. The expansion is designed to accommodate future growth and support the increasing enrollment at the Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine (ICOM), which increased its cohort by 75 students in 2025. Additionally, the new facilities will support a partnership between the University of Idaho and the University of Utah, whose medical education program students will utilize ISU's expanded labs.

Tara Westover Announces New Memoir, 'Brothers and Sisters,' for 2027 Release

Tara Westover, the acclaimed author of the 2018 memoir 'Educated,' is set to release her second memoir, 'Brothers and Sisters,' in 2027. Random House will publish the book, which is described as a narrative about Westover's decision to tell her own story and the subsequent fallout from the publication of 'Educated.' Her debut memoir, which detailed her upbringing in a survivalist Mormon family in rural Idaho and her pursuit of education, became a No. 1 New York Times bestseller and a finalist for several literary awards. 'Brothers and Sisters' will delve into the family's reaction to 'Educated,' specifically how her brothers denied or reinterpreted events they had once confirmed, leading to a profound sense of being disbelieved by her own family despite widespread public acceptance of her story.

Idaho's 2026 Elk Outlook: Dry Summer Impacts Hunting

Idaho's 2026 Elk Outlook: Dry Summer Impacts Hunting

Idaho Fish and Game has released its 2026 elk hunting outlook, describing the statewide elk population as strong following a mild winter that supported 95% survival of collared elk calves. The 2025 elk harvest reached 21,505 animals, with a 23% success rate among hunters. However, hot and dry summer conditions, coupled with wildfire activity, are expected to alter elk distribution and access in various regions. Hunters are advised to adapt their plans based on current conditions, as elk may shift to higher elevations or areas with better forage and water availability. The agency emphasizes the importance of regional scouting and flexibility in hunt planning to account for these changes.

Rainy System Moves East, Warm Week Ahead in Idaho

A weather system that brought rain to southern Idaho is moving eastward, leaving behind cooler nights with patches of frost, according to Meteorologist Jordan Scheufler (KMVT, 2026-09-19).
