Scientists are examining the effect on brain health of microplastics and one of the largest sources of microplastics: ultra-processed foods. Earlier this year, scientists discovered that there is ...
They’re everywhere: In our water, our food, our cosmetics, and even inside our bodies. Microplastics — teeny, tiny pieces of plastic less than five millimeters in size — and nanoplastics (even teenier ...
Twenty-four brain samples collected in early 2024 measured on average about 0.5% plastic by weight ...
Strange brown specks in two donated brains set a seasoned neuropathologist on an unexpected path. Elaine Bearer had examined countless samples during her long career, yet these glassy clusters puzzled ...
Microplastics have moved from distant ocean gyres into the most intimate of places: the human brain. A growing body of research now suggests these tiny fragments may not just be passengers in our ...
In 2004, science crossed a quiet line. Researchers confirmed that tiny scraps of plastic were not just drifting in oceans but entering living bodies. Two decades later, that discovery feels less like ...
A new, high-performance brain-computer interface (BCI) can be rapidly implanted through a minimally invasive procedure. The new BCI solution has been implanted in over 50 patients.
