We now demonstrate this effect in two separate non-neural, immortalized cell lines stably expressing a short-lived luciferase reporter controlled by a CREB-dependent promoter. We emulate training using repeated pulses of forskolin and/or phorbol ester, and, as a proxy for memory, measure luciferase expression at various points after training. Four spaced pulses of either agonist elicit stronger and more sustained luciferase expression than a single “massed” pulse. Spaced pulses also result in stronger and more sustained activation of molecular factors critical for memory formation, ERK and CREB, and inhibition of ERK or CREB blocks the massed-spaced effect. Our findings show that canonical features of memory do not necessarily depend on neural circuitry, but can be embedded in the dynamics of signaling cascades conserved across different cell types. When learning is spaced in time, memory is enhanced, but so far this was only observed in neural systems. Here, the authors show that non-neural cells, including kidney cells, also show a spaced effect in terms of transcriptional responses.

WorkGoogle's Gmail Decision--Why You Need A New Email AddressDuckduckgo already did this. Years ago. I'm using it now. When you realize Google is not the only search engine and Apple and Samsung are not the only ones who sell phones, it's enlightening and liberating. Apple now seems to pretend they invented Google's "magic eraser" feature with their new iPhone. This is also not new. You should write about why not using your real email address everywhere is a good security practice. Work
WorkWork WorkWorkWorkWorkRafael Nadals Last Stand - The New Yorker (No paywall)Rafael Nadal is afraid of the dark. He has an intense fear of storms. He is afraid of animals, including dogs. (I doubt their intentions, he wrote in his autobiography, Rafa.) He doesnt like to swim in deep water, even though he grew up on an island off the coast of Spain. He bought a motorbike but thinks its too dangerous. As a child, he was frightened of his uncle Toni, who was also his coach. His timidity has always been a curiosity, almost a joke. WorkThe terrifying perils of appeasing a warlike Russia - The Economist (No paywall)IN BARRACKS SQUARE in old Helsinki stands an unusual monument to a war. A towering sculpture of a soldiers winter snowsuit, its polished steel body is pierced with large round holes, as if still standing after a strafing by cannon fire. It is Finlands national memorial to the winter war of 1939-40. During that conflict, Finnish troops withstood a huge Soviet force for 105 days, inflicting heavy casualties on the invaders before succumbing to the Red Armys larger numbers. The Soviet Union imposed harsh terms, taking 10% of its neighbours territory. Peace proved fragile, and Finland was soon swept up into the second world war, fighting with Nazi Germany against the Soviet Red Army from 1941-44. WorkIsraeli strikes in Lebanon stir fears of sectarian strife - WSJ (No paywall) DEIR BILLA, LebanonChristians in this small northern Lebanese village keep a lookout at night for unwanted visitors, asking drivers headed up the hill toward the Shia part of the neighborhood what their purpose is. They have installed cameras and often sit around until 3 a.m. smoking shisha, keeping an eye on the road. WorkHow a real estate mogul became Trumps Middle East point man - WSJ (No paywall) But that Palm Beach party, in April 2022, was also something else: an extravagant reminder of the distance that the grooms father, Steven Witkoff, had traveled over his nearly seven decades. From his boyhood in the Bronx, Witkoff ascended to the peak of the real-estate business in New York and Florida, and along the way secured a privileged place in Donald Trumps court. WorkWorkWorkThe World Grid and New Geographies of Cooperation"People have lived and died, businesses have prospered and failed, and nations have risen to world power and declined, all over energy challenges."

This is how disaster relief actually works.Our mission could not be more clear and more necessary: We have a duty to explain what just happened, and why, and what it means for you. We need clear-eyed journalism that helps you understand what really matters. Reporting that brings clarity in increasingly chaotic times. Reporting that is driven by truth, not by what people in power want you to believe. WorkA.I.

WorkWorkWorkThe Human Mind Isn't Meant to Be Awake After Midnight, Scientists WarnIn the middle of the night, the world can sometimes feel like a dark place. Under the cover of darkness, negative thoughts have a way of drifting through your mind, and as you lie awake, staring at the ceiling, you might start craving guilty pleasures, like a cigarette or a carb-heavy meal.
