A team of researchers has developed a vaccine targeting the tau protein, associated with Alzheimer’s disease, showing robust immune responses in mice and non-human primates. Encouraged by these promising results, they are now seeking funding to launch human clinical trials.

Hey hey hello, I'm trying to gather data

Thanks to this cute little science video

I have become hyperfixated on the phenomenon of an internal narrator, specifically during reading. Please select that which applies to you, and feel free to elaborate either in reblog or the tags

Empowering Lives: Spinal Cord Injury Awareness Day

[thebibliosphere]

My atlas/occipital bone region feels absolutely awful tonight. I assume it’s the cold snap making my old chiro injury flare up but nothing I’m doing to ease it is working.

My skull is just sitting lopsided on top of my neck because of the scar tissue and I know it’s probably not visible but to me it feels like an inch long shiv has been wedged between my skull and vertebrae.

I need a new neck, please. One without bone spurs, spinal cord compression or any of the other shit that went wrong after it all went wrong.

We're back to bats.

It's really hitting me just how many of these papers are about only my favorite neuroscience topics-- gonna try to fix that going forward, since one thing I want to do is broaden my foundational knowledge. Increasingly obscure bat-echolocation-vestibular sensation-audiology papers are probably not going to help me accomplish that goal.

Anyway, bats!

Part of the function of the hippocampus (a brain region) is updating your memory of where you are in space. Particular cells called place cells will respond to particular allocentric coordinates-- meaning "that specific corner of the room" rather than egocentric coordinates, which mean "whatever corner is to my left right now". If a rat is running in a maze, the same cell will respond to the same turn of the maze every time. The area that a single place cell responds to is called its "place field". This is all part of how you keep track of where you are, where you're going, and where you've been.

Bat hippocampuses (hippocampi?) also do this while they fly, except more fun, because their place cells operate in three dimensions. Or maybe it's just stacks of two dimensions. Apparently scientists argue about that. But point is, they do this too! What's more fun, we can actively track how much sensory information bats are taking in while flying because we can record their echolocation sounds.

My favorite result from this paper is that the faster the bats are vocalizing for echolocation, the smaller their place fields get. Basically, the faster the bats update their location and their stored knowledge of their surroundings, the pickier their place cells get with responses. More information via faster echolocation calls = more information for place cells to use to get HELLA specific.

Neat!

Thanks for tagging along!
