 3.184 - AMICOR (26)

#Com Dra. Valderês A. Robinson Achutti (*13/06/1931+15/06/2021)





No jantar de encerramento do XI Congresso Mundial de Cardiologia, em Manila 1990. Na foto de baixo estava conosco a saudosa Marianne Burle de Figueiredo, Secretária Executiva da Federação Mundial de Cardiologia, desde a época em que se chamava "International Society and Federation of Cardiology" Aquino, Corazon Hoje, minha filha Lucia Helena, fazendo arrumação em guardados, encontrou as duas vestes que usamos na cerimônia. Foi a única vez que, além dos dados oficiais, passaporte, etc... solicitaram aos convidados, com meses de antecedência, as medidas corporais, para a confecção das vestes bordadas a mão... Na sessão de abertura, a Presidente Corazón Aquino esteve presente e, ao entrar no Salão de Atos, quando passou por nós (Valderês e eu), sentados na primeira fila da platéia, nos apertou as mãos como reperesentates dos demais congressistas. Vestíamos a tal jaqueta branca feita de um tecido, a partir de folha de bananeira, típico de lá 

Corazon Aquino, in full Maria Corazon Aquino, née Maria Corazon Cojuangco(born January 25, 1933, Tarlac province, Philippines —died August 1, 2009, Makati ), Philippine political leader who served as the first female president (1986–92) of the Philippines, three years after her husband's assassination, restoring democratic rule in that country after the long dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos.

University of California, Irvine biomedical engineering researchers have uncovered a previously unknown source of two key brain waves crucial for deep sleep: slow waves and sleep spindles.

Traditionally believed to originate from one brain circuit linking the thalamus and cortex, the team’s findings, published today in Scientific Reports, suggest that the axons in memory centers of the hippocampus play a role.

For decades, slow waves and sleep spindles have been identified as essential elements of deep sleep, measured through electroencephalography recordings on the scalp. However, the UC Irvine-led team revealed a novel source of these brain waves within the hippocampus and were able to measure them in single axons./.../

This shows a woman sleeping.
By uncovering the hippocampus’s role in generating slow waves and sleep spindles, this research expands our understanding of the brain’s activity during deep sleep and its impact on memory processing. Credit: Neuroscience News

My Fantastic Voyage at Quanta

By THOMAS LIN

Dear Readers,

Last July, I read this memo to the staff and explained why I had made the difficult decision to move on from my role as Quanta’s editor-in-chief. This magazine has meant everything to me since I pitched the concept to the Simons Foundation in 2012. Building, growing, nurturing and leading the publication and staff — and being a part of what we’ve collectively accomplished — has been the most remarkable and rewarding experience of my career. And it’s been especially gratifying to see valued Quanta readers like you multiply twentyfold over the past decade, with many millions more engaging with our science and math content on social media and YouTube, and through our podcasts and in translated reprintings around the world...
