APOE from patient-derived astrocytic extracellular vesicles alleviates neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder in a mouse model

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience

Analyzing cells from patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, researchers show transfers of patient-derived extracellular vesicles rich in the apolipoprotein APOE alleviate neuroinflammation and slow astrocyte loss in a mouse model of this severe autoimmune disease.

📄 :


APOE was augmented in astrocytic extracellular vesicles from patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder and decreased brain lesions in a mouse model.

World’s first AI software engineer Devin announced, it can write, code, create using single prompt

Posted by in categories: employment, robotics/AI

There is a new AI tool so smart that it can write code, create websites, and software with just a single prompt. Devin, created by the tech company Cognition, is the first AI software engineer. It can do pretty much everything you ask it to do. And the AI tool does not come with the intention to replace human engineers, it is designed to work hand-in-hand with them. The makers say that the AI tool has not been launched to replace human engineers but to make their lives easier.

“Today we’re excited to introduce Devin, the first AI software engineer. Devin is the new state-of-the-art on the SWE-Bench coding benchmark, has successfully passed practical engineering interviews from leading AI companies, and has even completed real jobs on Upwork. Devin is an autonomous agent that solves engineering tasks through the use of its own shell, code editor, and web browser,” Cognition posted on Twitter aka X.

Neurobiologists uncover how stress turns into fear in the brain in conditions such as PTSD

Posted by in category: neuroscience

Our nervous systems are naturally wired to sense fear. Whether prompted by the eerie noises we hear alone in the dark or the approaching growl of a threatening animal, our fear response is a survival mechanism that tells us to remain alert and avoid dangerous situations.

Lazy High School Teachers Using ChatGPT for Grading

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

It’s no secret that students often use ChatGPT to complete assignments and write essays.

But now, in a bizarre inversion, their teachers are also getting a leg up from AI to grade their work.

As Axios reports, a new software called Writable is allowing teachers to use AI to evaluate papers, which the company says saves “teachers time on daily instruction and feedback.”

Paralyzed man walks again using only his thoughts

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience

“For 12 years I’ve been trying to get back my feet. Now I have learned how to walk normal, natural.”


A paralyzed man is walking again thanks to a “digital bridge” researchers created between his brain and a spinal stimulator.

“For 12 years I’ve been trying to get back my feet,” the 40-year-old Dutch man, Gert-Jan Oskam, told reporters on May 23. “Now I have learned how to walk normal, natural.”
