Resistência Humana
Limite da resistência humana encontrado https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/5/6/eaaw0341 Por Natasha Romanzoti, em 7.06.2019 Pesquisadores da Universidade de Duke (EUA) descobriram qual o limite da resistência humana analisando uma corrida de 5.000 quilômetros, o Tour de France e outros eventos de elite.

A pesquisa ainda mostrou que mulheres grávidas são especialistas em resistência, vivendo quase no limite do que o corpo huma... mais »

The Tangled Tree
Today's selection -- from *The Tangled Tree* by David Quammen. In 1967, a young, little-known scientist named Lynn Margulis made a daring scientific proposal that was immediately and widely rejected: namely that the small organelles inside of cells had originally been separate bacteria that had taken up residence inside larger cells, which then became useful, symbiotic partners with that cell, and eventually simply part of the cell. It was a theory that radically rewrote evolutionary theory. Today, that theory is widely accepted. "[Lynn] Margulis made her debut in March 1967 with a ... mais »
