I'm very sorry to hear that, Dan. There is hope. The mid-21st century, I suspect, is going to be defined by neuroscience -- and I'm optimistic that findings like these are going to be coming thick and fast in the coming years. Fingers crossed the treatments come sooner rather than later.
News I could really use, like a breath of fresh air and wonderment. Muchas Gracias.
I enjoyed every word of this piece and learned some new things. Thank you for pulling together these disparate wonders for us, Brian.
My pleasure. It makes my life a little weird.

"Oh, I spent 7 hours reading about comb jellies, with quite a long detour to explore the evolution of their anuses"
😆 No doubt!
Thanks for this. My late mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in her early 70s. It is an awful disease. It is wonderful to hear there may be hope.

Didn’t lithium used to be a treatment (or still may be?) for bipolar disorder? Fascinating that it can have so many positive impacts on the brain…
Wonderful. Thank you. As a diver and sailor the salty world is enormously interesting. We ignore and abuse it at our own peril.
