Calif. PD considers offering brain stimulation therapy
Posted by Dan Breeden in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience
The city is considering whether to spend federal funds to offer personalized transcranial magnetic stimulation, or PrTMS, to public safety personnel who may feel groggy from poor sleep or want to improve interactions with the public.
Dr. Kevin Murphy explained the drug-free, noninvasive therapy at workshops Monday in Turlock. Therapy performed in a clinic directs magnetic pulses to stimulate electrical activity in neurons in the brain to regulate moods and restore mental well-being. The treatment is tailored for each individual based on an EEG and mapping of brain activity.
Murphy said the benefits for first responders will be fewer injuries and complaints, better sleep and employee satisfaction. The doctor said improved sleep is a common denominator for people who come into the clinic struggling with different issues.

Scientists discover longevity genes. Here’s how it can extend lifespan of humans
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in category: life extension
For generations, humans have tried to find the elixir which can extend their lives beyond their natural limit and deceive death.
Now, scientists have made a discovery of a gene which has brought humanity very close to this impossible target of achieving longevity.
The gene has been found to possess the capability of promoting cellular repair and reducing the effects of ageing. This discovery has taken the scientific community close to finding methods for extending not just long but healthy lives.

The Wow Signal Potentially Explained … and it’s Weird
Posted by Dan Breeden in categories: climatology, space
An exploration of new work done at Arecibo regarding the infamous Wow! Signal of 1977 that seems to account for all aspects of the observed signal but turned out to be a very strange natural event that isn’t likely to repeat often that is analogous to a lightning flash in a hydrogen cloud in interstellar space.

Expansion of the Universe Explained | Cosmology 101 Episode 1
Posted by Dan Breeden in categories: cosmology, physics
In this episode of Cosmology 101, we dive into the concept of an expanding universe. From the first moments of the Big Bang, our cosmos has been stretching in every direction. We explore what this expansion means for us, how we know it’s happening, and the fascinating implications of living in an ever-growing universe.
Join Katie Mack, Perimeter Institute’s Hawking Chair in Cosmology and Science Communication, on an incredible journey through the cosmos in our new series, Cosmology 101.
