“What is completely new about this theory is that it suggests we don’t perceive the world, make decisions, or perform actions directly. Instead, we do all these things unconsciously and then—about half a second later—consciously remember doing them.” 

Using ultrasound, researchers captured the facial expressions of developing fetuses in response to the taste of foods their mothers were eating. When exposed to carrots, the fetuses displayed "laughter-face" expressions, and "crying-face" expressions when exposed to kale. The findings shed new light on the development of human taste and olfactory receptors. 

Alzheimer’s Might Not Be Primarily a Brain Disease: A New Theory Suggests It’s an Autoimmune Condition. Rather than being simply a brain disease, researchers propose Alzheimer's disease could be a disorder of the immune system within the brain. 

The tumor microenvironment (TME) comprises of components that exist within the immediate vicinity of tumor cells, including fibroblasts, immune cells, the extracellular matrix, and more. Significant advances have been made in recent years in our understanding of the components of TME and their mutual interactions. Part of the focus of this research has been on epigenetic events, which are increasingly being recognized for their importance in gene regulation and cancer progression. The Collection represents the gradual growth in our understanding of the overall process of how cancer progresses, along with the factors that play a decisive role in this progression. It features studies conducted on models representing many different cancers, and includes mechanistic reports conducted using appropriate in vitro models, studies that analyzed human cancer patients-derived specimens, clinical trials and, additionally, studies involving bioinformatics, metabolomics, chemical libraries screening, next-generation sequencing, and single-cell analysis approaches. 

Multiple climate tipping points could be triggered if global temperature rises beyond 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, according to a major new analysis. Even at current levels of global heating the world is already at risk of passing five dangerous climate tipping points, and risks increase with each tenth of a degree of further warming.
