Feels weird to ask, but would you give me a signal boost by hitting share?

Rapid amyloid-Ξ² clearance and cognitive recovery through multivalent modulation of blood–brain barrier transport - Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy - Rapid amyloid-Ξ² clearance and cognitive recovery through multivalent modulation of blood–brain barrier transport

🧠 Alzheimer’s reversed in mice

A new study found that injecting nanoparticles can 'remind' the blood–brain barrier to function properly again, restoring normal brain activity in mice. Human trials could follow within years.

Pochinoccio strikes again.

Reform UK’s @SarahForRuncorn has removed a video about Runcorn Boxing Club after lying about her helping getting funding for them.

Statement by the club has shown her to once again have made up things about representing her local area.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Why have we been inflicted with such a poor standard of politician. They either have the charisma of a wet lettuce or the misguided self confidence of the golf club bore.

I welcome Jenrick's suggestion that the Carlton Club open its doors to everyone and integrate with the wider society.

The worst offenders of not integrating with wider society are the extremely wealthy. Good to hear Jenrick now suggesting that the rich send their kids to the local comprehensive and give up private health. Now, if he suggested they pay the same ratio of tax according to wealth as the rest of us...

This sounds plausible to me. But if it’s true, it means that the age of social media might be over soon, with only the old and wrinkled (like myself) spending any actual time there.
