New physics explains how odor changes on its journey through the air
6+ hour, 57+ min ago (1094+ words) Wind reshapes the timing of odor whiffs, potentially giving animals clues about where a scent originated. (CREDIT: Scott Franz/CU Boulder Today) An odor drifting through the air does not arrive at a nose in the same form it left…...
The hiccup may be an ancient reflex inherited from ancestors that breathed both air and water — its pattern resembles the gill ventilation of amphibians, while its purpose in humans and other mammals remains unresolved
7+ hour, 46+ min ago (699+ words) Scientists suspect your hiccup is a evolutionary relic from your aquatic ancestors, a neurological ghost of gill-breathing that somehow persisted even though it serves no obvious purpose today.

Scientists Link “Lonely” Sleep Waves to Memory Decline With Age
9+ hour, 51+ min ago (504+ words) As tau builds up in the brain, the brain waves that help form memories during non-REM sleep become irregular....
Why does your brain mix up memories? A new study examines how memories are misplaced in your brain’s filing cabinets
4+ day, 8+ hour ago (539+ words) The brain's hippocampus inappropriately changes memories between different memory phases as people get older, new research suggests. This helps explain why memories become less precise — but not forgotten — as people age. Old age and forgetfulness seem to go hand in…...
Google's simulated fruit fly brain 'mines Bitcoin' in web browser proof of concept — FutureBit says real organic neuron miner could have '10x the efficiency of the best silicon 3nm ASICs"
22+ hour, 24+ min ago (204+ words) A project claimed to represent "the first organic neuron Bitcoin miner based on the fly brain" has gone live. Yes, this is a cryptomining project that leans on the fruit fly connectome recently shared by Google. FutureBit, the company behind…...
My brain constantly replays moments from my past. Neuroscience explained why
1+ week, 4+ day ago (735+ words) Several times a day, I can be washing dishes, just turning my head, or catching a particular angle of light, and suddenly I am dropped into a one‑second clip from my own past. It might be the view from…...
Imaging Index Links Blood Flow to Cellular Architecture
1+ day, 8+ hour ago (536+ words) Researchers at USC have created a noninvasive metric called the cerebral blood flow–cell-body staining intensity similarity index (CCSI) to evaluate how blood flow matches cell density across the layers of the living human cerebral cortex. Source: Keck School of…...
