3D Brain Atlas Maps Key Stages of Brain DevelopmentResearchers have created a 3D atlas of the developing mouse brain, offering a dynamic, high-resolution view of brain structures during embryonic and post-natal stages. This new tool allows scientists to explore how brain cells, such as GABAergic neurons linked to neurological disorders, emerge and interact during development.By integrating MRI and light sheet fluorescence microscopy, the atlas provides a reference framework for studying neurodevelopmental disorders and advancing neuroscience research. The atlas is available online, offering global access to this essential resource for brain research.Key Facts:1. A 3D atlas maps brain development across seven stages in mice.2. The atlas tracks GABAergic neurons, key in disorders like autism and schizophrenia.3. It offers a free, interactive to ol for researchers to explore neurodevelopment.Source: https://lnkd.in/gJ5cyz2n

    BE THERE. GO THERE NOW AND NEVER LEAVE. Imagine that your dreams have already come true. Live your life from that mindset. Predicate your behavior on that reality, not the illusions that now surround you.Filter every thought, question, and answer from there. Let your focus shift and be born again—because dwelling from, not upon, the space you want to inherit is the fastest way to change absolutely everything. ~ The Universe

    HOW EXPECTATIONS BECOME REALITY"What we perceive as reality is shaped by our very expectations," writes F. Perry Wilson, Associate Professor of Medicine and Public Health at Yale, in a story this week on Medium. Wilson's "Expectation, Perception and Hot Sauce" shares how a new study involving hot sauce and an MRI machine shows how our expectations influence our perceptions, at a measurable level in the brain.You might already feel this on a gut level, in the way your anxiety about a social event makes it feel worse, or when someone asks, "This tastes terrible; here, give it a try?" But the study Wilson references has data to back this intuition up: Participants who don't like spicy food reacted more strongly—at a neurological level—to a highly spicy hot sauce when they were told beforehand it would be highly spicy. You can imagine a hundred scenarios where something similar plays out in everyday life. Expectation-setting is (almost) everything..."Credit: Scott Lamb, VP of Content at Medium.com

    5 of the Most Famous Typos in HistoryAn occasional slip of the keyboard or pen can lead to errors in spelling, punctuation, or grammar, and while they may seem trivial or even funny when they happen, some typos throughout history have had significant consequences. One infamous example of a typographical error is a 17th-century printing of the Bible that caused an uproar after it changed the meaning of one of the Ten Commandments. NASA’s onetime coding error, meanwhile, has been called the most expensive typo in history. In the grand scheme of things, typos may appear as minor nuisances, but these minuscule mistakes can spark conversations and even shape historical narratives. Read on to learn about some famous typos that remind us that even the smallest errors can have profound consequences.1. The “Wicked Bible”In 1631, a small but significant typoshook the religious world. In a reprint of the King James Bible by royal printers Robert Barker and Martin Lucas, the word “not” was egregiously left out of the Seventh Commandment, “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” which was mistakenly printed as “Thou shalt commit adultery.” The typo appeared in about 1,000 copies of the text, which later came to be known as the “Wicked Bible” or “Sinners’ Bible.”...2. NASA’s Million-Dollar TypoOn July 22, 1962, NASA’s Mariner 1 spacecraft, designed for a mission to Venus, was set to launch from Cape Canaveral. But just minutes after liftoff, the shuttle had to be destroyed due to a course deviation. The culprit behind this mission-ending error was a simple coding mistake...3. The Lincoln Memorial TypoThe Lincoln Memorial is one of the most iconic landmarks in the United States. Before its official dedicationtook placein 1922, anunfortunate typowas discovered etched into the words of Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address, one of two famous speeches inscribed on the monument, along with the Gettysburg Address. During the original carving of the inscriptions, an engraver mistakenlycarved an “E”in place of the “F” in the word “FUTURE” in the phrase “WITH HIGH HOPE FOR THE FUTURE.”...4. The Dictionary’s Fake WordA dictionary is a presumed source of accuracy, but in 1934, the nonword “dord”appearedin the second edition of Webster’s New International Dictionary. It appeared between the text’s entries for “dorcopsis,” a small kangaroo species, and “doré,” meaning “golden in color.” “Dord” was listed as a noun referring to density in the fields of physics and chemistry...5. Google’s Lucky TypoIn 1996, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the co-founders of Google, named their new search engine “BackRub.” As their project grew, the tech duo began looking for a new name, and fellow Stanford student Sean Anderson reportedlysuggested the name “googolplex,”the name of an incredibly large number (1 followed by a “googol” of zeroes)...Credit: HistoryFacts.comSource: https://lnkd.in/gWC3xvpw

    Problematising carer identification: A narrative study with older partner's providing end-of-life care"Internationallyhealth and social carepolicies have increasingly promoted carer self identification as the best way to target and support people in caring roles. There has been remarkably little research concerning how people adopt the identity. This paper explores the carer identification practices of older partners providing end-of-life care.A narrative interview study comprising 41 interviews with 20 participants from 17 couples were conducted between in August 2018–August 2019 in the United Kingdom. This paper coins the term carering to denote the co-constructive practices of policy makers, researchers and broader culturalnarrativescalling forth the carer identity and the unfolding practices of people interacting with the carer identity in relation to their sense of self. Through three narrativecase studies, this paper captures the diversity of older partners carering with three categories defined as engaged, ambivalent and disengaged carering. The carer identity was only taken-up when participants felt that the qualities assigned to being a carer, such as experiencingsocial isolationand providing 24/7 care, reflected their own personal experience. Given that not every older partner wants to, or will, self-identify as a carer, this paper suggests that carer self identification should not be the only strategy to identify and support people involved in caring. Qualitative health researchers also need to be reflexive in their use of the carer identity when studying caring-related topics."Source: https://lnkd.in/gzD4cnvg

    MISS ME WITH THAT SMOKE: WILDFIRE EXPOSURE AND THE RISING RISK OF DEMENTIA by C. Freeman, Medium.comImagine inhaling a breath of wildfire smoke and unknowingly inching closer to dementia — it’s a frightening reality backed by recent research. As a geriatric psychiatrist, I’ve spent years helping older adults navigate the challenges of mental health. Therecent studylinking wildfire smoke exposure to a higher risk of dementia is a wake-up call, especially given more-frequent wildfires.We’ve known for a while that air pollution is bad for our brains.Studies showthat exposure to pollutants like fine particulate matter (PM2.5) can lead to cognitive decline and dementia. So, it’s not entirely shocking that wildfire smoke, packed with similar harmful particles, could also increase dementia risk. What’s truly surprising is just how strong this new study found the link to be.This recent study, conducted by researchers from the University of Washington and the University of Pennsylvania, tracked the health data of thousands of older adults over several years, cross-referenced with data on wildfire smoke exposure. Their findings were clear: individuals with higher exposure to wildfire smoke had a significantly increased risk of developing dementia compared to those with lower exposure levels. This robust link emphasizes the need for more aggressive public health interventions and preventive measures.Climate change and extreme weather are throwing a lot at us, including wildfires. In my practice, I’ve noticed more dementia cases cropping up in recent years. While it’s tough to pin this trend directly on wildfire smoke, it’s clear that our changing environment is having real impacts on our health...This new study drives home a point many of us in the medical field have been shouting from the rooftops:climate change is a major threat to public health. The effects of climate change are speeding up and hitting us hard, particularly here in California. We need immediate action to address this crisis. And let’s not forget: the impacts of pollution and climate changehit hardest in poorer communities with fewer resources. This isn’t just about clean air; it’s about environmental justice and making sure everyone, regardless of where they live or their income, has the chance to live a healthy life...The link between wildfire smoke and increased dementia risk reveals the profound connection between our environment and health. We must ramp up our public health strategies to tackle the risks associated with wildfire smoke and get to the root causes of climate change. Doing so will protect the cognitive health of older adults and build a healthier, more resilient future for everyone. So, miss me with that smoke — our collective future depends on it.Source: https://lnkd.in/gaKQvj-W

    Muscle tissue changes with aging"One of the most striking effects of age is the involuntary loss of muscle mass, strength, and function, termed sarcopenia [1–3]. Muscle mass decreases approximately 3–8% per decade after the age of 30 and this rate of decline is even higher after the age of 60 [4,5]. This involuntary loss of muscle mass, strength, and function is a fundamental cause of and contributor to disability in older people. This is because sarcopenia increases the risks of falls and vulnerability to injury and, consequently, can lead to functional dependence and disability [6,7]. A decrease in muscle mass is also accompanied by a progressive increase in fat mass and consequently changes in body composition, and is associated with an increased incidence of insulin resistance in the elderly [1,4,5,8]. Furthermore, bone density decreases, joint stiffness increases, and there is a small reduction in stature (kyphosis). All these changes have probable implications for several conditions, including type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and osteoporosis."Source: https://lnkd.in/gxi9p44m

    Every Monday, I Drive Into A Refugee Camp For Work by Evin IbrahimEvery Monday, at 10am, I drive my car into a refugee camp. There is nothing special about this road. It is mostly dirt with some gravel, flanked by makeshift homes on one side — tents, wooden boards, and tarp, wrestled into the barest semblance of living accommodations. On the other side, a series of NGO buildings stand in a row, bearing faded signs with UNHCR, NRC, and the like.But this road has become special to me. Because this road is lined with children who know me.At the end of that long dirt road is a large tent, and in that tent the magic (i.e., the weekly dramatherapy program that I run) happens. The kids, especially those that don’t know the days of the week yet, come daily to check if we are there. To see if the tent is open......most of them refugees and displaced persons themselves, find so much meaning and fulfilment in running our weekly programs. Despite the daily grind, the unkind Iraqi weather, the exhaustion of holding space for 80 traumatized children every week, we always show up.We play, we laugh, we draw, we sing, we listen. And in that container of play, music, art, and story time (which is what dramatherapy is), welovethe hell out of those kids.We tell them in words and actions how precious they are.We listen to them...They don’t address how to be a therapist in society where I struggle to set foot outside of my house because of the racism and hostility I face daily. Those manuals don’t cover how to work with the physical limitations of running a psychotherapy program in a literal encampment, complete with constant interruptions, generator fumes, and 80 screaming children threatening to tear down the fence enclosure because they are so conditioned to the anxiety of things running out before it gets to their turn. They don’t talk about how to handle security issues, how to dig a trench to prevent flooding, and how to talk to parents who send their kids to work in factories. Or who send their kids out to beg and steal.No, I was not prepared for this.But I was also not prepared to be so loved. I could not have anticipated how much the pure, unreserved affection I received would fill up the hole in my heart, carved out by the pain and isolation of being in a foreign land. I had no idea how powerfully this love would transform me, undoing the aloneness I felt. I didn’t realize how crucial that same love— burning fiercely in my heart — would be in helping me overcome my own fear and depression...Credit: Evin Ibrahim, Medium.comSource: https://lnkd.in/gamuNggR

    Don’t Let This Quick And Lethal Disease Snatch Your Loved Ones.Get sepsis-savvy.If you’re a carer or health professional you’ve probably attended sepsis awareness training and thought of it in terms of the people you look after.But sepsis can affect anyone. Of any age. At any time. It’s even more common than heart attacks.In the UK itkills 48,000 of the 245,000 people it touches.¹ That’s more lives than lung cancer, bowel cancer, and breast cancer combined.In the US, it affects about1.7 million people each year, and 350,000 die from it.²...What is sepsis?It used to be called ‘blood poisoning’ or ‘septicaemia’; it’s now referred to as sepsis.If we get an infection, our first line of defence is our immune system. If anything affects the immune system we’re more likely to get an infection, and that could become sepsis.Sepsis is the severe end of infection...How do I know if someone has sepsis?Sepsis is cunning and stealthy because it looks like any other sort of infection in its initial stages. Someone might feel like they have flu — joint and muscle aches and pains, feeling shivery, running a temperature, feeling generally under the weather...In adults:S= Slurred speech or confusionE= Extreme shivering or muscle painP= Passing no urine (in a day)S= Severe breathlessnessI= It feels like you’re going to dieS= Skin mottled or discoloured...Last thoughts:Always be in the habit of asking how people are and really listening to them. There may be something subtle that alerts you to symptoms you need to check further.If you suspect sepsis, get help right away.Credit: Elspeth Raisbeck, Medium.comSource: https://lnkd.in/ghU-zJ5B
