@lauradata @BU_Tweets @SorenGrubb @transneuro_lab @NPR @NPRjonhamilton @atsaraharrison @WIREDScience @WIRED The video by Nina Fultz, @lauradata and colleagues @sciencemagazine w/ @ScienceVisuals on CSF fluid dynamics
During deep sleep, cerebrospinal fluid (blue) coincides w/ temporary decreases in blood flow (red). Less blood in the brain = more room for CSF to carry away toxins.

Interesting chart, some might call it "ops tempo" axios.com/donald-trump-s…
In 2009, newspapers used to lead with only 3.5% of stories flowing from blog to mainstream print. Now "memetics" a term created by Richard Dawkins as a "mental gene" is the primary tool in communications. Zeitgeist or the defining mood is the target. nytimes.com/2009/07/13/tec…
The news cycle and the slower, self replicating nature of memes in 2008 had slower attack and decay models. Although Obama had used social media to great success in fundraising and election, the weaponization of social media was not a White House tactic. cs.cornell.edu/home/kleinber/…

La vérité sur les #OGM

Suite au visionnage du film Food Evolution (cf. )
@micha3lamal a rédigé un thread intéressant () dont je propose ici une traduction

(Mes commentaires personnels seront indiqués par la mention NT)
La vérité sur les OGM : un thread
J'ai longtemps été désireuse de faire un thread sur les #OGM et j'ai été inspirée par un documentaire que j'ai regardé la nuit dernière appelé Food Evolution.
(NT : ce documentaire est accessible à cette adresse foodevolutionmovie.com )
L'idée principale de ce documentaire est que la peur autour des OGM est largement basée sur la pseudoscience, et de vieux mythes bien ancrés/désastreux.
