Can cannabis be used medicinally for depression and mental health issues?
In this paper we track the changes in the cannabinoid system and we observed that there’s a specific age where the endocannabinoid system alters significantly. Have a read.

Dynamic Changes in the Endocannabinoid System during the Aging Process: Focus on the Middle-Age Crisis
Endocannabinoid (eCB) signaling is markedly decreased in the hippocampus (Hip) of aged mice, and the genetic deletion of the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) leads to an early onset of cognitive decl...

Being a postdoc in the US as someone from the UK feels like walking a tightrope between opportunity and uncertainty. I’ve studied at NYU before, but back then, I always knew I’d eventually leave. Now, I’m here with the possibility of staying long-term, and that changes everything.

There are new vaping products on the market using 6-methyl nicotine instead of nicotine. This is to circumvent FDA regulations and reduce taxation. If you have vaped both Nicotine and 6-methyl nicotine, can you share your experiences here?
I’m researching 6-methyl nicotine.

The higher I go in my scientific career, the more I realize that there is more politics in science than I thought.
Shouldn’t science be independent of people’s personal opinions?
Why is it so difficult for the so-called big guys to accept new evidence that go against theirs? Strange

Ever wondered what happens to your brain as you age? Why is it that you loose excitement over the same things you used to enjoy when you were younger? Have a read at my most recent paper to understand how aging affects the oxytocin and receptor systems 🧪👨🏾🔬

Differential temporal decline of cerebral oxytocin and μ‐opioid receptor density during the aging process in mice
This study investigates the age-dependent variations in Mu-opioid receptor (MOPr) and oxytocin receptor (OTR) in mice from adolescence to geriatric age. The tipping point in OTR occurred at an earlie...

Hi BlueSky,
I’m new here and trying to figure out this app works. I’m a scientist with expertise in neuropharmacology, toxicology and bioengineering. I have several papers published on how aging affects our brains and the toxicity of e-cigarettes on the human lungs. I hope to connect with you. 🧪👨🏾🔬

I have a book entitled overcoming published on Apple Books and Amazon in soft copy and hard copy.
This book is about my journey as a black boy in STEM, from underprivileged backgrounds to being in prestigious schools like NYU, Cambridge and the likes.
