Psilocybin triggers an activity-dependent rewiring of large-scale cortical networks in mouse model

A new study shows psilocybin reshapes brain circuits linked to depression by weakening rigid cortico-cortical loops that trap people in negative thinking and strengthening sensory-motor pathways that help restore cognitive flexibility.

Pancreatic cancer progression is driven by glutamatergic pseudo-synapses between sensory neurons and tumor cells, where glutamate activates and increases expression of GRIN2D NMDA receptors

Brain cells learn faster than machine learning, new research reveals

A new study charts the planetary boundary of “functional biosphere integrity” across time and space, revealing that 60% of global land is already outside the local safe zone—38% of it deep in the high-risk zone.

Breakthrough in Gene Editing Allows Massive, Clean DNA Changes in Plants and Humans

Four-legged animal paw pads got their toughness thanks to a single protein called Slurp1 that protects skin cells from stress & evolved to protect paw skin from mechanical pressure as creatures adapted to walking on land while also supporting a creature’s weight during running and jumping.
