Could Parkinson's be caused by iron starvation, not overload? 🧠🔬 New research flips decades of belief, suggesting trapped iron leaves neurons hungry for what they need. www.news-medical.net/news/2026010... #Parkinsons #Neuroscience @jci.org
Parkinson’s disease may stem from iron starvation rather than iron overload
This perspective argues that Parkinson’s disease may involve functional iron deficiency, where bioavailable iron is limited despite normal or elevated total iron in the brain. The authors propose that...

Probing the quantum nature of black holes through entropy
In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy remains positive and vanishes at extremely low temperatures, just like ordinary quantum systems. The finding provides strong evidence that black holes possess isolated ground states, a hallmark of quantum mechanical behavior.
