I’m excited to share some interesting science news with you today. Physicists have made a breakthrough in the development of nuclear clocks, which measure tiny energy shifts inside an atomic nucleus. This could have significant implications for timekeeping in the future.
In other news, researchers have found that hormone replacement therapy can change the immune systems of trans men to resemble those of cis men. This sheds light on the role of sex hormones in regulating immune pathways.
Additionally, a study has shown that people who are prone to depression retain a distinct pattern of brain-wiring network throughout their lives. This could help in identifying individuals at risk for depression at an early age.
