Researchers Unveil Ultra-Precise, Mind-Controlled Prosthetic: ‘It’s like you have a hand again’
(Nicole Casal Moore) In a major advance in mind-controlled prosthetics for amputees, University of Michigan researchers have tapped faint, latent signals from arm nerves and amplified them to enable real-time, intuitive, finger-level control of a robotic hand.
Analysis: Nearly Every Person Dying from the Coronavirus Likely Has These Three Things in Common
(Mike Adams) This is an analysis based on current knowledge, not from any published study (yet), but based on everything we know so far, we believe the vast majority of people dying from the coronavirus have one or more of the following things in common:
As Earth’s Ozone Layer Continues to Repair Itself, Scientists Happily Report Good News on Global Wind Trends
(GNN) It has been more than 30 years since the world banned the chemicals that were depleting Earth’s protective ozone layer and simultaneously triggering some troubling changes in atmospheric circulation in the Southern Hemisphere.
Medical Researcher Says Coronavirus Tests Based on RNA Are Misleading — Op-Ed: Does the 2019 Coronavirus Exist?
(David Crowe) The Coronavirus scare that emanated from Wuhan, China in December of 2019 is an epidemic of testing. There is no proof that a virus is being detected by the test and there is absolutely no concern about whether there are a significant number of false positives on the test. What is being published in medical journals is not science, every paper has the goal of enhancing the panic by interpreting the data only in ways that benefit the viral theory, even when the data is confusing or contradictory. In other words, the medical papers are propaganda.
Study: Sensory Information Underpins Abstract Knowledge
(Calli McMurray) Neuroimaging reveals our brains combine information from different categories of sensory information to drive abstract knowledge.
Study: Household Chemical use Linked to Child Language Delays
(Jeff Grabmeier) Young children from low-income homes whose mothers reported frequent use of toxic chemicals such as household cleaners were more likely to show delays in language development by age 2, a new study found.
Scientists Have Finally Discovered How Turmeric Ingredient Could Treat Dozens of Diseases and Conditions
