THE ALZHEIMER HAS A SOLUTION?


Maybe the problem of Alzheimer can have a solution. A group of scientific from University of Washington and University of Hong Kong investigate with the molecule called A-beta that can be toxic to its cells, and they finding a mechanism for clean it. The study showed that freely circulating A-beta concentrations outside the brain could regulate A-beta clearance rates inside the central nervous system. I hope that they search early the solution for this problem, because the Alzheimer it’s an important disease can affect a lot of old people.

Organ donor scheme

Spain has a very high number of organ donors, more than other European countries. It is dues to the fact that there are people that work on liaise the people and also, because you are always able to change your opinion if you said that you wanted it.

Yap-lication unlocks canine moods!!


The nuances of a dog's barks, howls, yaps and growls can now apparently be discerned by a new computer programme developed by Hungarian scientists.

The software is said to distinguish the emotional reaction of 14 dogs of the Hungarian Mudi breed.

After analysing 6,000 barks, it aims to determine when a dog has seen a ball, when it is fighting, playing, meeting a stranger or when it wants a walk.

But the scientists admit the technology only just out-performs humans.

While the computer correctly recognised the emotional state of 43% of dogs, humans did almost as well with 40%.

But the author of the research - Csaba Molnar, from Eotvos University in Budapest - says the software can be improved, and told the BBC it may have applications for analysis of human communication.

"I would say that we proved there are very strong contextual differences between the barks, but that very long further work is needed to determine which emotional states and which characteristics belong to each (different breed).

He added: "In the future we can use this software for any other vocal or any other signal categorisation."

The scientist also believes that later versions of the software could help owners and dog trainers identify more about dogs' well-being.

"A possible commercial application could be a device for dog-human communication," the scientist told Reuters news agency.




Csaba Molnar, from Eotvos University in Budapest , and her ajudants, invent a new and "revolution" machine. They invented a new computer programme for understand the emotions of a dog, now, if you can know what happened to your dog, if it has seen a ball, when it is fighting, playing, meeting a stranger or when it wants a walk... You only use this programme and you know what happen!
It's a new invent for relation humans and dogs, more than now...
It's interesting, maybe one day the dogs and the humans can understand...
