“In this study, the authors included 351 patients with COVID-19 hospitalized during the acute phase.
The association of cognitive deficits with brain injury biomarkers in blood & reduced volume of brain regions on MRI indicates that measurable biological mechanisms might underpin the findings.”

Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA) had a genome of at least 2.5 Mb encoding around 2,600 proteins, comparable to modern
prokaryotes….LUCA was a prokaryote-grade anaerobic acetogen that possessed an early immune system….
capable of both building its own molecules & using those produced by others 🤯

Rita Letendre’s work is absolutely breathtaking in scale, scope & beauty. I went twice to the AGO pre pandemic just to be with her work. My favourite remains

After being in sleep medicine > 2 decades, I initiated first of its kind case study in 2011 that examined the role of self-regulation to counter the slow violence of shift work in the form of diet, exercise & shift schedules +++. It lasted a decade & raised more questions than it answered.
