What Octopus and Human Brains Have in Common
Octopuses have a massively expanded repertoire of miRNA in their neural tissue, reflecting a similar development to that which occurred in vertebrates. Findings suggest miRNA plays a significant role in the development of complex brains.
“This is the third-largest expansion of microRNA families in the animal world, and the largest outside of vertebrates”

'Zombie' Virus Reanimated After 50,000 Years In Siberian Permafrost
French researchers have reanimated over a dozen prehistoric viruses which have been trapped deep within the Siberian permafrost for nearly 50 million years, according to a pre-print study. After obtaining seven ancient permafrost samples, scientists from the French National Centre for Scientific Research were able to document 13 never-before-seen viruses that had been lying dormant in the ice.

Scientists may have found something unfathomably massive living under Antarctica
According to a study published in Frontiers in Marine Science, researchers have discovered a massive living world below Antarctica’s icy surface that could be as big as 5 million square kilometers. This continent is often thought of as having a hostile climate and has been ground zero for the changes that rising global temperatures bring. For decades, scientists have studied the photosynthetic algae that forms around Antarctica in the summer months, believing that it only emerges when the ice has melted, giving way for sunlight to reach the algae. Now, though, research suggests that there could still be a massive amount of these algae living permanently underneath the ice that covers the continent. Essentially, that would put a massive world living under the Antarctic ice, which is insane to think about considering how hostile we believe that area of the world to be.

Entanglement between superconducting qubits and a tardigrade
A tardigrade has become the first multicellular organism to be observed in a quantum entangled state, after scientists coupled the animal to a superconducting quantum bit (‘qubit’) and then entangled that combined system with another qubit. In the process of undergoing the experiment, the tardigrade also set a new record for survival under extreme conditions: it spent 420 hours at sub-10mK temperatures and pressure of 6 × 10−6 mbar.

Control and Innovation are opposing forces.
"No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them." < This is why there are very few people thinking about truly groundbreaking and dangerous ideas in publicly visible science and technology today. Control and Innovation are opposing forces.

So what exactly is HAARP or an ionospheric heater?
Simply put, HAARP is a large facility in Gakona, Alaska (northeast of Anchorage about half way between that city and Tok Junction) with a field of phased array radio antennae. A phased array of antennae broadcast a radio signal from each antenna in the array, but the signals coming from each are slightly out of phase with each other, and this feature allows the signal to be shaped and directed via the interference pattern that emerges when the signals mix in the atmosphere. This allows the broadcast power of HAARP - some have estimated it to be about a gigawatt - to be focused or concentrated in a specific region of the ionosphere. As such, the ionopshere can actually be lifted - creating areas of low pressure - and those areas can be moved around as the signal itself moves. In other words, one can loosely steer weather systems as well as affect their intensity. And given the magnetic coupling between this planet and the Sun, some people - myself among them - have theorized that such heaters might be capable of affecting the Sun, or other nearby planets.

A primary challenge & opportunity our generation faces is how we deal with the rapid collapse of most traditional institutional / organisational models (nation, governance, science, business, healthcare, religion, etc.) & how to redefine our relationship to nature, self & others.
"The best political, social, and spiritual work we can do is to withdraw the projection of our shadow onto others." - CarlJung

Monodisciplinary
Many professionals in academia & industry have a tendency to overfit on their job/discipline category: "I am a pro in X & hence ONLY interested in X info & people". Such narrow minded "monodisciplinary" behaviour is bad for collaboration & creativity. Why does it keep happening?

Genome-wide sperm DNA methylation changes after 3 months of exercise training in humans
Exercise can affect your unborn children's genes by altering the chemistry of DNA in sperm and egg cells. Aerobic exercise for 3 months altered sperm DNA by silencing genes linked to the risk of autism, OCD, Alzheimer’s, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis.
This is called transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. Animal studies have shown that exercise-induced genetic changes are a direct factor driving beneficial changes to offspring’s brain physiology, cognition, neurogenesis, & mitochondrial activity.

How to improve nature connectedness: A meta-analysis
Our latest paper brings together previous research in a meta-analytic review to explore the impact of experimental manipulations and field interventions to improve nature connectedness in adult populations.
Conclusion: "Lasting increases in nature connection were observed after regular nature activities & nature-noticing practices, as well as regular mindfulness & meditation practices carried out in real or simulated nature contexts."
