Spojte príjemné s užitočným! Pomôžte pri výskume demencie hraním hry
Koľko času strávite hraním počítačových alebo mobilných hier? Tento čas môže teraz pomôcť vedcom, ktorí sa zaoberajú výskumom demencie. Vyvinuli hru, prostredníctvom ktorej zbierajú užitočné informácie, ktoré využijú pri diagnostikovaní tohto závažného ochorenia. Vďaka tomu sa môžete zabávať a súčasne sa podieľať na vedeckom výskume!

Když nám mrtvička přidusí mozek, neurony začnou kšeftovat
Jakmile se neurony dostanou do maléru, mitochondrie se jim vymykají z kontroly a musejí se jich zbavit. Přebírají si je od nich astrocyty. Byly pro nás uklízeči odpadků ale jak se nyní ukázalo, nefunkční mitochondrie opravují a pak je neuronům zase vracejí. Tím nervové buňky kradou hrobníkovi z lopaty a vrací je zpět do života (nás mnohdy také). Metaře tak musíme takřka přes noc, překřtít na lékaře. Výměna mitochondrií běží pod taktovkou enzymu CD38. Napomoci jí lze i injekčně a to je pro nás, kteří chceme mít mozek soudný co nejdéle, radostná novina.

The people who cannot imagine
Close your eyes and visualise the face of the person you love the most. The colour of their eyes, the texture of their hair, the detail of their skin. Can you imagine it? Philip can’t.

Taylor: My stroke of insight
An astonishing story of Jill Bolte Taylor who got a research opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: She had a massive stroke, and watched as her brain functions — motion, speech, self-awareness — shut down one by one.

Mariano Sigman: Your words may predict your future mental health
Can the way you speak and write today predict your future mental state, even the onset of psychosis? In this fascinating talk, neuroscientist Mariano Sigman reflects on ancient Greece and the origins of introspection to investigate how our words hint at our inner lives and details a word-mapping algorithm that could predict the development of schizophrenia. "We may be seeing in the future a very different form of mental health," Sigman says, "based on objective, quantitative and automated analysis of the words we write, of the words we say."

Kang Lee: Can you really tell if a kid is lying?
Are children poor liars? Do you think you can easily detect their lies? Developmental researcher Kang Lee studies what happens physiologically to children when they lie. They do it a lot, starting as young as two years old, and they're actually really good at it. Lee explains why we should celebrate when kids start to lie and presents new lie-detection technology that could someday reveal our hidden emotions.
