Are you blind when it comes to occipital anatomy? This is a forgotten region, b/c vision isn’t considered eloquent. But it is still important to remember the anatomy! Here’s how, starting at the bottom —Lateral occipital gyrus It down at the bottom in the occipital lobe & lateral—simple one there! —Lingual gyrus It’s at the bottom and in the center, just like your tongue (lingual) is in the center of your mouth —Visual cortex Looks like two evil snake like eyes, staring at you from either side. So if you see eyes, it’s the visual cortex! —Parietal lobules Remember, Lobule and Lateral both start with L, so the lobules are lateral & stacked on each other —Cuneus and precuneus Remever, C is for central, so precuneus and cuneus are central in the midline! Hopefully, this post will back you up when it comes to the back of the brain anatomy!!

My waiter had dementia and forgot my order. I visited a cafe in Japan that ONLY hires people with Dementia. It's called the Cafe Of Mistaken Orders. Sometimes the servers bring you the wrong food, never bring your order, or sit down and join you instead. But the point of this cafe is to be a place for dementia patients to feel needed and have purpose. And this cafe is working. Japan has discovered that being socially connected actually slows down the progression of dementia. So now there are 8,000 dementia cafes all over Japan! The U.S. should be more like Japan. We should keep elders out of nursing homes, find ways to give them purpose, and part of society until their last days.

Does epilepsy imaging cause you to seize up in fear? Everyone knows mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS)! But did you know there are different KINDS of MTS?? This month's AJNR SCANtastic shows YOU what you need to know in the latest in epilepsy imaging! Here's what to remember: Hippocampus has 4 subfields w/CA abbreviation standing for “Cornu Ammonis”: CA1: Horizontal & ascends slightly. Number 1 on its side is horizontal w/a slight acsent! CA2: Superior hippocampal dome. Number 2 has a curve at the top that looks like a dome! CA3: Hippocampal curve ends & turns toward the dentate. Number 3 makes a curve heading down! CA4: Indistinguishable from the dentate. Number 4 on its side looks like CA4 being supported by the dentate underneath! Hippocampal sclerosis or MTS has 3 subtypes: Type 1 Classic form w/neuronal loss in all subfields Remember this rhyme: In type 1, hippocampus is all done! Type 2 CA1 predominant volume loss Remember this rhyme: Type 2 loses the glue! (CA1 glues the hippocampus to the rest of the temporal lobe) Type 3 is CA4 & dentate predominant volume loss Remember this rhyme: Type 3 loses the belly! CA4 & dentate are the hippocampus belly! Next time you have an epilepsy study, hopefully you'll seize the opportunity to use this! But this only scratches the surface! Follow AJNR & read the full article:

Form follows function!! Do you know functional neuroanatomy? This post will help you to remember the functional neuroanatomy you need to function if you are reading brain MRIs! Here’s how: 1. First start at the top —At the top you will see a gyrus that looks like a thumbs sticking up. This is the superior frontal gyrus (SFG). —Remember this bc you get a thumbs up when you do a superior job! 2. Next to the SFG is the middle frontal gyrus —This looks like knuckles next your superior frontal gyrus thumb —Remember this bc your MIDDLE finger is in your knuckles —ALWAYS LOOK FOR THE KNUCKLES W/THE THUMBS UP! 3.Use the SFG to find the motor strip —SFG has a motor & language component —Motor component is first at the back (remember, you walk before you talk!) —Motor component of SFG crashes into the motor strip —Remember, when two cars crash, their MOTORS hit 4.Confirm its the motor strip by finding the hand omega —Hand motor region looks like an upside down omega —Remember Omega is a fancy watch brand you wear near your HAND! Hopefully now you will be eloquent when it comes to this eloquent cortex!!!

Ziplock Bags are now involved in a class action lawsuit after being linked to causing dementia “I'm Dr. Clint Steele. I'm a brain and nervous system specialist and I help people just like you improve your life by improving your brain function, specifically around, preventing and in many cases reversing dementia and Alzheimer's disease. For those of you that follow me, I did a video on this not too long ago talking about 750 milligrams of plastic being found in the brains of those that have Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. That's the size of a plastic spoon, folks. So question is, where are all these plastics coming from? — What they're finding here, guys, is this an SC Johnson claims that Ziploc bags are safe to use in extreme conditions, meaning for freezing and also for heating in their microwave. Now for any of you that are doing this, guys, and this is one of the reasons I don't do this, because it doesn't make sense to me to put this in the microwave. It's going to melt, it's plastic. It's going to get into my food. That's not good for me. So if you're doing this, you got to stop. Here's what happens. There's two ingredients in this, in this plastic bag called polyethylene and polypropylene that break down and turn into microplastics. These microplastics are so small that they can actually cross the blood brain barrier. And this is how we're finding plastics in the brain — Get the plastics out of your life as much as you can. And especially these” “Please guys, share this. I'm out to save 1 million lives from dementia and Alzheimer's disease and I need your help. And we've got to get rid of stuff like this because it's damaging our brains and it's leading to end stage neurodegenerative diseases. So please share this. I love you. I'm Dr. Clint.

Brain scans are revealing early dementia-like changes in kids and teens from heavy screen use. 60 Minutes Australia reported toddlers spending just 2–3 hours daily on devices already show abnormal white matter development. Teens averaging 6–8 hours display widened brain ridges and thinning in key areas — patterns that mirror early Alzheimer’s. Excessive screens appear to weaken neural pathways that normally strengthen through real-world movement, play, and face-to-face interaction. We’re also seeing the first IQ drops in recorded history, plus a nearly 400% rise in early-onset dementia signs among 35–44 year olds. Correlation, not proven causation — but devices are the major new variable. This is one of those reports that makes you rethink default habits. The convenience of screens is undeniable, but the potential long-term brain impacts on developing kids are hard to ignore. We may be unintentionally running a massive experiment on the next generation’s cognitive health. Are we underestimating the risks of heavy screen time, or is this concern overblown?

There is now evidence that senior Reform figures have been briefing journalists with the false claim that I have dementia. Presenter Dan Wootton, after receiving one of these deplorable calls, has bravely gone on the record to expose this vile behaviour. I thank him for that. Written messages from Farage himself prove not only that he knows I do not have dementia, but disgracefully that the issue was discussed and debated within senior Reform circles. This is a venomous and deeply unethical campaign - not just a smear against me, but an insult to every family in Britain who has experienced the heartbreak of watching a loved one fade away with dementia. My own 93 year-old mother has suffered over the last few years. It makes their hateful tactics all the more personal and sickening. A feeling millions of Brits will share - pain, grief, helplessness. To weaponise such a devastating illness as a political tactic is beneath contempt. All because I dared to question Farage? Pathetic thin-skinned arrogance one would expect from a snarling teenage bully. Political figures from opposing parties have debated and disagreed for decades without smearing their opponents with such a cruel condition. Labour, Conservatives, Liberal Democrats - none of them have stooped this very low. Yet Reform deployed such disgusting hate campaigns against one of their own - that tells you everything you need to know about the character of these people. It is simply not the British way, and it must be called out for the poison that it is. Please watch the clip below...

the story of bogum crying because of a customer story 😭😭😭 her mother in law has dementia but she knows who her daughter in law is, but dementia is like that, you tell them something, and they forget it even with side dishes, she only eats seaweed and fried eggs, but she doesn’t even remember the eggs and seaweed and if she wants pancakes, she can’t ask for them, when she sees them, she just can’t express that she wants them, she said “This morning, I came here and she didn’t touch the breakfast prepared, and I had to feed her before coming I quietly thought to myself I hope she can remain like this until the end, so I can give her a sip of water before she passes nothing else is needed” Bogum then told her “you have worked so hard” he also said “she takes such good care of his mother in law, even if she forgets things occasionally, I can feel her heart thinking about her daughter in law it’s so touching” “spending time with family is so important” and kept crying, his soft heart 😭😭😭🤍🤍 #Parkbogum #TheVillageBarber #보검매직컬

To spread a message, concentrate force. Say you want to puncture a table. You can either slap down on it with both hands or drive a nail through it. Assuming the pressure is the same, using the nail is a much better strategy. The same is true for attention. Jeff Bezos has said "it's always Day 1" 10,000 times, and probably wishes he'd said it even more. Don't become robotic about it, but repetition and simplicity are the only way to spread a message at scale. Lulu says: "Remember Steve Jobs' famous commencement speech where he says Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish? How many people remember anything else from that speech? Like, most people remember one thing. And if Steve Jobs can give the best speech of his life and have us remember one thing, what makes us mortals think that we can give an average speech or blog post or video, and have people remember ten things from it? It just doesn't happen." Lulu Cheng Meservey

Anthony Davis avoids two young fans at a Malibu Carnival. They are LITERALLY begging AD for one autograph and he NEVER even makes eye contact with them.. This is whats WRONG with the NBA today, players have $100 million mansions and are so full of themselves that they think they are above little kids who idolize them. I remember 20 years ago seeing Corey Maggette at Universal Studios and being so hyped when I approached him for a photo. He was so nice and even talked a little about the Clippers with me. These little moments can change a kids life. AD could have had the decency to BARE MINIMUM look at the kid and say, “sorry kid not today, but thank you for the support.” Instead he pretended the kid didn’t even exist. NBA blasts us with “NBA cares” campaigns to protect their image. But a player like AD, who is barely an all star, acts like this. Shame. Do better.

"Cholesterol Lowering Statins Can Cause Aphasia & Take Away Your Ability To Speak...The Same Condition Actor Bruce Willis Has." Dr Bryan Ardis Documented Cases Of Statin Induced Aphasia Forced The FDA To Add Safety Warnings In 2012. Yet No Patient Is Warned Of This Side Effect. Aphasia & dysphasia are terms used to describe language disorders that affect a person's ability to understand, produce, or use language. They are often used interchangeably, dysphasia is considered mild impairment which then develops into its severe form aphasia. Cholesterol lowering statins deprive the brain of cholesterol leading to cognitive decline with diagnoses of neurodegenerative diseases & progressive conditions like Alzheimer's, frontotemporal dementia & vascular dementia---then leading to aphasia, the complete inability to speak. The US FDA admits in the 2012 safety warning that cognitive decline is reversible if the patient stops taking the cholesterol lowering statin... "Assessment of cognitive function included testing in four domains: executive functioning, memory, language & visuospatial ability." "There have been post marketing reports of cognitive impairment (e.g.,memory loss, forgetfulness, amnesia, memory impairment, confusion, speech impairment & language delays) associated with statin use." "These cognitive issues have been reported for all statins. The adverse effects are reversible upon statin discontinuation, with variable times to symptom onset of 1 day to 1 year. Symptom resolution was achieved by stopping the statin with a median time frame of 3 weeks." Current Cholesterol Lowering Statins On The Market... rosuvastatin (Crestor) simvastatin (Zocor) atorvastatin (Lipitor) fluvastatin (Lescol) lovastatin (Mevacor) lovastatin extended release (Altoprev) pitavastatin (Livalo) pravastatin (Pravachol) Crucial Systems Within The Human Body That Statins Damage... Statins cause CoQ10 deficiency, resulting in muscle pain & Mitochondrial Dysfunction. Statins stop Dolichol, a crucial molecule in protein glycosylation in the brain, deficiency leads to Parkinson's & other brain disorders. Statins cause liver & pancreas damage, leading to insulin resistance & type 2 diabetes. Every Statin crosses the blood brain barrier & shuts off the enzyme of cholesterol production leading to Dementia & Alzheimer's. The brain is supposed to be 60% fat & 25% cholesterol. And every cell within the body is supposed to be saturated with cholesterol. Statins inhibit Heme A, a vital component of the electron transport chain for energy. Chronic Conditions Documented To Be Caused By Cholesterol Lowering Statins...

Need help reading spine imaging? I’ve got your back! It’s as easy as ABC! This post is about an easy mnemonic you can use on every single spine study you see to increase your speed & make sure you never miss a thing! Just remember ABCD: A = Alignment (1) look for unstable injuries (2) look for malalignment that causes early degenerative change B = Bones On CT, look for fractures On MRI, look for marrow lesions/edema C = Cord/Canal On CT, look at the canal contents for large masses or collections On MRI, look for canal narrowing & cord edema D= Discs/Degenerative --Normal discs should look like a kidney on it’s side on axial images, w/tiny hilum/. Loss of this hilum means there a bulge --On sagittal images, normal discs should look like jelly donuts. If they look like pancakes instead of jelly donuts, they are degenerated Disc nomenclature: Bulge = gaining weight & loosening belt (annulus gets loose) Protrusion = hernia (annulus tears & disc protrudes through) Extrusion = disc becomes like toothpaste & squeezes around everywhere Free Fragment = like toothpaste on the toothbrush—completely separate from the disc Now you know how to approach spine imaging studies in a systematic way! Hopefully, now reading spine imaging won’t be such back breaking work!

Dr. Dale Bredesen just revealed that the most-prescribed Alzheimer's drug makes patients WORSE than taking nothing at all. Aricept is the drug your neurologist hands out at the first sign of memory loss. It's been on the market for 30 years, and almost every patient with early dementia is on it. Dr. Lon Schneider from USC published a paper on it. He discovered Aricept patients decline FASTER than untreated patients over time. The early "boost" wears off, and the brain damage accelerates underneath while you keep filling the prescription. Most neurologists still prescribe it because there isn't a better pill, so families keep buying it every month, hoping it's slowing things down. The data shows it's actually pulling forward the decline. A new randomized trial just dropped showing what actually works for early Alzheimer's (covered in the thread below). I’ve implemented parts of the protocols mentioned in this study in my own homes and have personally seen how it can help reverse dementia and early onset Alzheimer's. PS: I’ve opened 7 more slots this month to my online community where we share these exact protocols. If you’d like to see if this could help you, book a call directly with me. Link in bio.

I’ve implemented parts of the protocols mentioned in this study in my own homes and have personally seen how it can help reverse dementia and early onset Alzheimer's. PS: I’ve opened 7 more slots this month to my online community where we share these exact protocols. If you’d like to see if this could help you, book a call directly with me. Link in bio.

🎥| “I think this is maybe just starting to happen, but I find it really interesting that sport psychology coaches are prevalent now throughout sport. They're a vital part of sport. It'd be interesting to see something similar in the music industry and especially people like us at young ages that were dealing with a lot of pressure at a lot a young age, but also to perform at a, you know, really good level. Um because often those kind of psych psychologists will be, you know, like um performance-based. Well, this is a performance-based job for sure. I do think something like that would have helped. It's only really in hindsight cuz like for my I can only speak on my own journey, but you're so young and it's so exciting and every day is so different. I didn't really have too much time to to really take it all in. So I think that having just remember having those conversations that would definitely help some kind of voice to chat to but not just in the name of like therapy also performance-based people that can bring out the best in you because you know I can remember that as an 18-year-old lad you literally get brought out thrown in the lies and go deal with it you know and you you have people are there to help you craft your skill but things like inner confidence you're just expected to have those things you know and that's something that definitely takes takes uh especially as a young person, it takes a bit of direction, I think.” Louis Tomlinson via Billboard.

A lot of people DM me and ask, “How do you do it? How do you care for your mom and still have a career?” The answer is God. Because anything else is beyond me. This is a real life moment from last night. Around 1 AM, my mom started screaming. And this has been happening for the last month, almost 24 hours a day. I don’t know the last time I’ve had more than three hours of sleep without being awakened by her screams or cries. I wait until she goes to sleep to do my tapes, then try to move fast before she wakes up and starts screaming again. I sleep with earplugs now, but only one, because I have to be able to tell the difference between an involuntary scream and a pain scream. My brain is never off. Yes, it’s hard to be creative. But it’s still possible. This is dementia. And this is what it looks like trying to be a working actor and a caregiver at the same time. If you’re in this too, I see you. You are not alone. ❤️ Ps. Get creative with your hair too because I literally had no time to do my hair for this and tape it before momma started screaming… 🫠 Thank you @maneassisthair for coming over after a full day of work and helping me tape multiple auditions and trying to soothe my mom at the same time. #MyTribe🫂 #Caregiving #Dementia #Alzheimers #MultipleSclerosis

A new Nature paper from Johns Hopkins (by Prof. Lin Dingchang Lin ) just solved one of the hardest problems in biology: how do you record what every cell in a tissue experienced over time, not just what it looks like right now? The answer: GEMINI — Granularly Expanding Memory for Intracellular Narrative Integration. It works exactly like tree rings. Cells are genetically engineered to express a computationally designed protein assembly. As the assembly grows inside the cell, it captures cellular activity as fluorescent ring patterns — each ring a timestamp, each ring's properties encoding signal intensity. Look at a cross-section under a microscope and you can read the cell's history backward, with ~15-minute resolution. The key: cells build the recorder themselves. GEMINI doesn't interfere with normal function — it just quietly writes. What they demonstrated: In a full tumor xenograft, GEMINI captured every cancer cell's activity history across the entire tumor while it continued to grow normally. For the first time, researchers can look back and see how different regions of the same tumor responded differently to therapy over time — not snapshots, but film. In a mouse brain, GEMINI recorded neural activity dynamics without disrupting behavior, coordination, or memory. It could temporally resolve the history of a brain seizure. Why this matters: Every tool we have in biology gives you state — what the cell looks like now. Sequencing, imaging, proteomics — all snapshots. GEMINI gives you trajectory. It's the difference between a photograph and a video, applied to every cell in an organ simultaneously. The team is explicit that AI-based decoding tools will be central to reading GEMINI's output at whole-brain scale. This is the data layer that makes temporal single-cell atlases possible. Paper: Congratulations Dingchang Lin

This Lewis Hamilton appreciation post by Hanifah and Ada, of the podcast 'Seasoned Sessions' 🥹 "People like him, I wonder what are the other athletes doing? Do you get what I mean? Because Lewis has, does everything." "Like one thing, you just seem so calm, collected. I can never imagine you raising your voice just like, you look so soft and calm. Like could just hold you. Like he could do a sleep story. Yes, you could do that CBeebies, read the book to the kids type thing. And I would clock in. He probably has done that." [HE HAS] "You dress so well. Wide audience. You really have an appreciation for fashion. You're at so many events. Like not to be the center, but you are the center because you just be chilling. You have a really eclectic friendship group. And the people I see you associate with, I'm like, wow, where did you guys meet? Who even knows? And then you are really charitable. "So you're using your 24 hours because also you're the best F1 driver in the world, in history. How have you, how do you manage to do all that? And then you look at other people that just do, I, I'm just sport." "Yeah, he's a well-rounded individual. It's like, how do you have all the time? Like, how do you have all the time and still be the greatest of all time? Do you get what I mean? Not that you were the greatest of all time. You were actively the greatest of all time. You were also producing the new F1 film.. also you're a rapper as well. A secret rapper. He's on one of Christina Aguilera's ones. He has a pseudonym. [XNDA] So he doesn't even really push it. He just pops up. He just pops on. He's enjoying life." "That's like, you know when people are like, when I become famous, I want to do a bit of everything. He's that thing, like, I have the resources to do everything I've ever wanted to do. And I'm actually going to do it well." "But one thing I do really appreciate about him is like, he doesn't do it in a way where it's like, I just want to be about, and here's my key differences - Lewis Hamilton made a post yesterday. Made a post yesterday about support, highlighting Black women at the Met. And just basically giving certain people accolades for what they've done for the Met and for fashion, and obviously for dandyism. Everyone's like, this is how you applaud Black women in this space." "But Lewis had like really put it at certain people like Regina King, like Lauryn Hill, etc. Also given them like really drawn out paragraph of like the specifics of what Black women have done to help this part of culture. And like he always makes sure he speaks highly of Black women. Whereas like, you know, there's a clear difference of people that are performative and people that actually love it." "And I think one side is performative, which loads of people are. Is it a critique? Maybe, who knows. And then one person is like truly in this. And that's Lewis."

Stop scrolling if anyone you love has ever been touched by Alzheimer’s or dementia. Gary Brecka just said something on stage that made the entire room freeze: “The face of aging that we all accept – the wrinkles, the brain fog, the memory loss – is not aging. It’s a deficiency of raw materials in the body.” Then he went nuclear: “In research, Alzheimer’s and dementia are increasingly being referred to as Type 3 Diabetes – insulin resistance… inside the brain. In 22 years of working with thousands of patients, I have never – not once – seen early-onset Alzheimer’s or dementia without 10+ years of chronically elevated blood sugar preceding it.” He didn’t stop there. “Your brain is the Kim Jong-un of organs. It sits up there like a dictator: Needs calcium? It leaches it from your bones. Needs amino acids? It strips them from your muscle. Wants sugar? It activates the TAS1R2 receptor on the back of your tongue and pays you in dopamine until you feed it.” His voice cracked when he said this next part: “There are entire laboratories in America filled with PhDs whose full-time job is studying that one single taste receptor… so they can engineer food that hijacks your brain and keeps you addicted.” Then he looked straight into the crowd and begged: “Please… please be careful what you put in your body.” Love him or hate him, Gary Brecka just asked the question no one in mainstream medicine wants to answer out loud: “If this is true… why are we still calling it “incurable”?Watch the full 99-second clip. Drop your raw thoughts below – did this just rewire how you see sugar forever? I know it did for me.
