Bacteria could travel from the nose to the brain and trigger Alzheimer’s

Posted on by

A new study has found evidence that nose bacteria could move into the brain through the nerves and trigger a cascade of events that can lead to Alzheimer's disease

Researchers in Australia have found evidence that bacteria that live in the nose can make their way into the brain through nasal cavity nerves, setting off a series of events that could lead to Alzheimer’s disease. The work adds to the growing body of evidence that Alzheimer’s may be initially triggered through viral or bacterial infections.

Physicists measure gravitational time warp to within one millimeter

Posted on by

The flow of time isn’t as consistent as we might think – gravity slows it down, so clocks on the surface of Earth tick slower than those in space. Now researchers have measured time passing at different speeds across just one millimeter, the smallest d… Continue reading Physicists measure gravitational time warp to within one millimeter→

Another trial finds no evidence LSD microdosing does anything
