New data by the research infrastructure ICOS confirms that natural carbon sinks such as the ocean and forests are not stable.

Fluxes, the European Greenhouse Gas Bulletin, is a new publication by the reserach infrastruct

A study at Lund University reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta — a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caused by neuronal damage. The study is published in Acta Neuropathologica. An increased risk o
