How do we calm conflicts with farmers: quick, we change the usage indicator! Even an elementary school student understands the subtlety. We measure the quantities of substances used on a field without considering the toxicity of each product. Thus, if a farmer uses X grams of a product 100 times more toxic than another. As … Read more
You don’t have to be a historian to know that Israel has occupied a territory since 1967 and is doing what is necessary to empty it of its Palestinian occupants, moreover in the continuity of the decisions of all the governments that have succeeded one another – the exception for a brief period of Itzhak … Read more
The discoveries follow complicated paths and appear a posteriori to be self-evident. We have been working for years on a co-transporter (NKCC1) which plays a major role in maintaining ionic balances in almost all cells. Bumetanide has shown promise in treating a number of brain diseases, including autism (see my blog ). I put forward … Read more
We have a lot to learn from nature! life is a collective work with networks of interdependent species, genes and cellular assembly. Work in the disciplines of biology and evolution teaches us how life is a construction conditioned by the balance between these functions. A striking example is provided by this publication showing how a … Read more
Doubt is always required in order to form an opinion and in order to have an opinion, it is appropriate to look at the facts with indisputable testimonies in the age of fake news and counter-truths asserted without embarrassment by the same people. I therefore allow myself to give links to facts / testimonies of … Read more
As a citizen and scientist, it seems obvious to me that the coming to power of the far right will leave an indelible mark on living together. We should not have any illusions. Macron’s regime has failed, behaving like a monarch in a republic by having prepared the ground for this earthquake. We will have … Read more
As a reminder, sponges are animals not plants…no brain, no digestive system, no muscles, a body made up of channels that filter water and reject waste, all while hanging on a rock. It is equipped with reproduction and spermatozoa, in short everything that is necessary. Especially unlike plants, these cells do not have the chloroplast … Read more
It must be said that we have been looking for autoantibodies in patients, particularly epileptics, for ages to explain the persistence of seizures. The idea in a simplified way is that the body would produce antibodies against important proteins, neutralizing their actions a bit as if they had been injected with an antagonist or an … Read more
The current government of Israel is so extremist anti-Arab that even French extremist parties like the National Front or Reconquest would hesitate to go so far. Kill the maximum number of Arabs in Gaza – children, old people, etc. – all considered animals to be slaughtered (according to a minister) – babies are future terrorists … Read more
In humans or pets, large size is associated with an increased likelihood of cancer. The general idea is therefore that cancer results from a large number of cell divisions associated with genetic mutations which will reduce/break down the protective mechanisms which prevent anarchic division and the formation of tumors. However, an English statistician had shown … Read more
Coral has always been considered a plant. Logically it looks like a tree with roots. The ancients Aristotle, or Pliny the elder had classified it like a plant. In 1726, a coral-loving doctor, living in Gadeloupe- Jean-André Peyssonnel submitted an iconoclastic article suggesting that it is an animal. The academy refused its publication and Réaumur, … Read more
It just goes to show that reason ends up convincing the most recalcitrant! the world bank, certainly not a leftist and environmentalist Huber lulu environment, finally supports the need to completely review the agri-food system. The exorbitant ecological cost of intensive agriculture and the food that results from it would be enough to fail to … Read more
The Israeli president even decreed that all residents, including children, are terrorists. HE obviously hasn’t seen this little film which shows endearing, moving and I would say beautiful children. This type of film seriously contributes to making more human a population that we are described as bloodthirsty. These children thank US universities for their support … Read more
The case was clear: cancers are due to an unpredictable genetic mutation, in short, bad luck, the accumulation of mutations in the DNA leads to the disruption of certain key genes and the disordered cells begin to proliferate until form a cluster of abnormal cells: a tumor. Treatments are also focused on how to counteract … Read more
Dr Chedotal’s team (Paris Vision Institute) has already demonstrated its extraordinary abilities to study brain maturation with a tool that it masters and uses masterfully: the Light Sheet Microscope. Exploiting his proximity to hospitals and the links he has patiently developed over several years, Alain Chedotal was able to have access to human embryos (termination … Read more
To treat autism, I have often insisted on the importance of determining the electrical modifications, particularly the inaugural pathological event which occurs in utero. The concept of neuroarchaeology states that these initial events result in the persistence of neurons that remain immature – which do not mature and which disrupt brain functioning. We have thus … Read more
The massacres of 7/10 are on everyone’s minds and the people of Hamas are not children at heart; they have blood, rape and massacre on their hands and should be tried in The Hague for war crimes and crimes against humanity. We must always remember that with the support and blessing of this same Netanyahu, … Read more
We like simple things in the modern, digital world, white or black, 0 or 1! Autism is either the fault of the mother or poor genetics. But both are false! the idea of the mother’s fault was born in the mind of a twisted psychologist, which has no scientific basis, if only because the syndrome … Read more
A systematic investigation of fertility around the world has recently been performed relying on 8709 country -years vital and sample registration. Age specific rates of survival were made in age groups from age 10 to 54 years. The results are indeed worrying as summarized in their results chapter. “During the period from 1950 to 2021, … Read more
Mr. Friedman is a respected journalist from the New York Times, expert on the Middle East, recipient of the prestigious Pulitzer Prize and having the ear of President Biden. In short, an important personality in the media and US politics. In a recent editorial of an interview in the left-wing newspaper Haaretz, Mr. Friedman declared … Read more
In a world surrounded by short-termism and the absence of coherent analysis, we can only be struck by this analysis by an anthropologist and researcher associated with the School of Advanced Studies in Social Science – Catherine Hass. She asked herself the question – following the death of her sister killed in the Hamas suicide … Read more
A priori, this is not a scoop, we are different on a biological level and certain organs are present in Madame not in Monsieur and vice versa. The same for certain hormones and reactions – for example more empathy in Madame in general than in Monsieur. And the brain? Numerous studies have suggested differences for … Read more
The message has been repeated for 5 decades, everything or almost everything has DNA as its origin! IQ, intelligence, faith, crime, homosexuality and of course the majority of illnesses, including neurological and psychiatric syndromes. 50 or 80% of the origin of autism is genetic, the same goes for schizophrenia and even Alzheimer’s disease. This message … Read more
We have been told for some time, particularly since the pioneering work of Rachel Carlson, that insects and birds are disappearing at an alarming rate. In a recent study carried out by a conglomerate of 50 researchers from 28 European countries by a team from Montpellier (Vincent Devictor) explains to us how they proceeded to … Read more
Since Darwin, we have all known that we are the product of evolution and are therefore linked to those who preceded us. Since Lamarck, we also know that acquired characters can be transmitted and that DNA is only one of the vehicles in this long chain: there is also an evolution of acquired characters not … Read more
Earthworms – the well-known earthworm – had already attracted the attention of Darwin who devoted a volume of work to them… Their incredible benefits are finally slowly becoming a major subject. Consider that their ability to stimulate plant growth is unparalleled, their presence in the soil increases harvests by 25%, to match the millions invested … Read more
In order to put a drug on the market, clinical trials are required which culminate in a large so-called phase 3 trial. This requires the recruitment of thousands of patients and compare those who receive the treatment versus a placebo. There must be a statistically significant difference between treated and placebo on 1 criterion called … Read more
WE ARE JEWISH WRITERS, artists, and activists who wish to disavow the widespread narrative that any criticism of Israel is inherently antisemitic. Israel and its defenders have long used this rhetorical tactic to shield Israel from accountability, dignify the US’s multibillion-dollar investment in Israel’s military, obscure the deadly reality of occupation, and deny Palestinian sovereignty. … Read more
Paths of discovery are complex and rarely follow a well-established linear path; Basic research initially without any medicinal profit motives are always the starting point. Here, we are talking about an Outstanding Biophysicist from Jerusalem and then from the Technion in Haifa who started with a simple idea: we treat a number of neurological and … Read more
We have known for a long time that the earlier we detect cancer, the greater the chance of reducing it with the usual treatments – chemo and radio and different molecules. It has also long been suspected that a sedentary lifestyle makes things worse; physical activity ranging from walking to exercises that activate the cardiovascular … Read more
