“In this gloomy political environment, this gives us hope.” For the first time, nations agreed on how to deal with pandemics - amid COVID fatigue and without the US. One researcher even says that the US exit galvanised everyone else www.nature.com/articles/d41... @childsmichelle.bsky.social

Two parts of my life collided this week when I wrote about how marathons affect the brain for @nature.com. I have run 14 marathons so glad to hear I've flexed my myelin elasticity! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

How marathons change runners’ brains: scans point to surprise energy source
After the gruelling races, levels of the nerve-cell insulator myelin were lower, suggesting the brain uses the fatty substance as fuel.
