3 Aging Experts Tell How They Decided on Where to Grow Older
One of the most vexing questions many of us face once we hit our 60s is: Where should we live as we get older? I’m not talking about those “Best Places to Live” rankings. I mean what kind of home, and type of community, would be most suitable. That’s why I was eager to hear what several gerontologists had to say in their session at last week’s Gerontological Society of America conference about how they decided where they’d live in later life.
What kind of home and community is most suitable? The answer isn’t always rational.

Internal brain timers linked with motivation and behavior
Time can be measured in many ways: a watch, a sundial, or the body’s natural circadian rhythms. But what about the sexual behavior of a fruit fly?
“If you ask a bunch of scientists whether animals can keep time, many would say they cannot, that things happen over time—but time itself is not measured,” says Michael Crickmore, Ph.D., a researcher in Boston Children’s Hospital’s F.M. Kirby Neurobiology Center whose laboratory studies motivation. But in new research published in the journal Neuron in collaboration with the lab of Dragana Rogulja, Ph.D. at Harvard Medical School, he shows that the mating behavior of fruit flies is not haphazard. Instead, motivation and behavior are under the control of neurons that track time.
Crickmore uses the mating drive in male flies to study how motivations are produced by the brain.
Antivirals for the Gut? Study Points To Potential New Gut (and Brain) Treatment
A Gulf War Illness study finds a connection between dysregulated gut flora, leaky gut and neuroinflammation – and a new way to potentially resolve it.
It’s nice when the government has your back. After years of neglect, the federal government finally appears, at least regarding medical research, to have Gulf War Illness (GWI) veterans’ backs.
Edward Snowden on the Dangers of Mass Surveillance and Artificial General Intelligence
AI is Pandora’s box, s’ true…
On the one hand we can’t close it and on the other hand our current direction is not good. And this is gonna get worse as AI starts taking its own ‘creative’ decisions… the human overlords will claim it has nothing to do with them if and when things go wrong.
The solution for commercialization is actually quite simple.
If my dog attacks a child on the street when off the leash who is responsible?
The owner of course. Although I dislike that word when it comes to anything living, maybe the dogs human representative is a better term.
Business must be held accountable for its AI dogs off the leash, if necessary keep the leash on for longer. So no need to stop commercialization, just reinstate clear accountability, something which seems to be lacking today.
And in my view, this would actually be more profitable… Everyone happy then.

Fake video clips made with artificial intelligence can also be spotted using AI—but this may be the beginning of an arms race.
