🔬 Life Evolved Twice, Childhood Trauma Lives in Your Cells & a Common Drug Is Hurting Men's Vision

🔬 Life Evolved Twice, Childhood Trauma Lives in Your Cells & a Common Drug Is Hurting Men's Vision12 aug8 min

Scientists are challenging one of biology's most foundational assumptions, with new research suggesting cellular life may have originated independently not once, but twice — raising explosive questions about life's place in the universe. A landmark mouse study reveals that early childhood trauma may leave permanent molecular changes inside brain cells, physically rewiring vulnerability to anxiety and depression decades later. A widely prescribed medication taken by millions of men has been flagged in a major new study for a surprising and serious link to vision loss. Researchers in Berlin report dramatic breakthroughs using a cannabis-based drug to reduce PTSD nightmares, while a McGill University study finds that something as simple as your posture may be quietly shaping your mood and financial decisions. Plus: seven new frog species discovered after 12 years, a crab found alive inside a floating plastic bottle, and CT scans that are finally clearing the dodo's name.Subscribe to Peer Review'd Newsletter: https://peerreviewd.com/
