The world would have been colorless, is the brain's "palette" self-determined "color label"
Time of Update: 2021-02-17
The study found that from primary to middle-level three continuous visual brain regions, there are many different sizes, discrete distribution of color reaction speckle regions, used to encode different light wave band neurons gather in these speckle regions, forming a "tone map." These "tonal maps" are like rainbows of varying sizes scattered across the surface of the visual brain.

Limited-time eating improves health without changing the body's core clock
Time of Update: 2021-02-17
"We observed that the rhythms of the skeletal core clock gene are not affected by time-limited eating, suggesting that any difference is driven more by diet than by inherent rhythms," said Leonida Rendell, a postdoctoral fellow at the Noor and Nord Foundation's Center for Basic Metabolism Research (CBMR) at the University of Copenhagen.

FDA approval of a new paradigm for existing Lyme disease tests could help simplify diagnosis
Time of Update: 2021-02-15
Laboratory diagnostics for Lyme disease traditionally use a double-layered process to detect the presence of antibodies in the patient's blood against bursos.
This alternative, called an improved double-layered test, is as accurate as the current method used to detect and evaluate exposed antibodies to Borreliaburgdorferi, the pathogenic factor for Lyme disease.
