Mitochondria are at the center of a lot of key processes in general. They play an important role in regulating cell death and free radicals in the body. They also play a role that is still being studied in what membrane receptors are transp

We have investigations into mitochondrial genetics and Alzheimer's. There's still a lot to learn but it's probably safe to assume there's a lot more going on. Treatment and even prevention for most will likely rely on at

Met a kid with this my first pediatric clerkship in med school. I was told it was super rare and then had to memorize a bunch more stuff and forgot all the details about the visit. Always wish I could remember that patient better

I guess increasing awareness on the issue is better than nothing. I've just noticed that she has a gift for identifying problematic industries but struggles to come up with clear criticisms that could translate into pragmatic solutions

As much as I'd love to see ridiculous parent laws in medicine get under control, I have very little confidence that Lina Kahn would accomplish anything. She doesn't have a great track record. You really need someone with a good ba

I hadn't heard the latter philosophical term but there are related concepts I'm familiar with. I'm more technically driven than many of the other neuroscientists I work with so I'd imagine they don't all know Grange

It varies quite widely by location because the income often reflects the number of patients and what source their income is from (Medicare, private insurance, uninsured). The med school debt for family medicine doctors can be quite daunting

They didn't say the language was the issue. It doesn't support the full C spec. But if you want a reason why language might be an issue for a compiler, it could make compilation time slower. But I think the point of this project i

The lab I'm involved in right now started off pleasant but there were definitely a handful of people who were less than pleasant to work with. Our PI has played a big part in picking the right people but we've all been very suppor

The other comment basically got it. Ask doctor particularly with family history. All cancers are better treated if caught earlier but some like colorectal cancer have much less severe outcomes if caught early on (eg removing a large segment

I think it's a good term for this but it also side steps the issue that this isn't a actually intelligence coming up with it. It's just machine noise

Depends on the situation. If no one cites it then it drifts into obscurity quickly. If it was actually cited frequently it leads to an investigation of work by all authors on the paper along with a retraction.

I've seen some situations where smart people did bad research because of deadlines related to work visas. Science doesn't care how smart you are or if you could end up without a home. It will take as many logical iterations over a

I can't speak for other fields but in Neuro there's plenty of this but often one learns how to catch it before using it in your own research, even if it never becomes a matter of public scrutiny. Unfortunately, I can't reassu

I recall seeing something that built on Cairo and provided something that had basic 3d interaction on top of an iterative 2d render a long time ago. So there are projects that do more direct implementations but I'm not sure if they hav

The first Neuro lab I worked in was funded by the department of defense. Focus was the effects of traumatic brain injury and mechanisms that cause it. It wasnt 2.1 trillion in funding so I can't account for a lot of that I guess

This sort of feedback is just difficult for people to consume in a mature way. Many get defensive or weaponize it. Language design is hard to critique since it becomes so abstract making most comments superficial. But people in this situati

I totally agree with your point here. I was just curious if I understood this issue properly. From other comments it sounds like an issue that may affect everyone despite our best efforts. Like you said, regulation is probably the only way

I'm not saying any of this is alright but can't you just wash this stuff off produce as a consumer? In which case the real health issue is for those interacting with produce before they get to consumers.
