Remembering the cold: scientists discover how #memories control #metabolism

New multidisciplinary research led by Tomás Ryan from Trinity College Dublin shows that the brain forms memories of cold experiences and uses them to control our metabolism. This newly published study is the first to show that #cold memories form in the #brain – and map out how they subsequently drive #thermoregulation.

EurekAlert!Remembering the cold: scientists discover how memories control metabolismNew multidisciplinary research led by Prof. Tomás Ryan from Trinity College Dublin shows that the brain forms memories of cold experiences and uses them to control our metabolism. This newly published study is the first to show that cold memories form in the brain – and map out how they subsequently drive thermoregulation. The discovery may have important applications in therapies designed to treat a range of disorders – from obesity to cancer – in which thermoregulation and metabolism (or a lack of control in this area) plays a role, as well as opening the door to more fundamental research, which could help us better understand how memories impact our behaviour and emotions.

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🧲🌡️ Super-cooled materials can become superconductors that float above magnets, but this is just the beginning of the quest for absolute #cold.

Dr. Helen Czerski shows how scientists discovered absolute zero (-273.15°C) by tracking how gas volume decreases with temperature. This theoretical limit leads to quantum states where materials behave in strange new ways, potentially revolutionizing computing.

YOUNG POSSE are one of the best acts of the last few years, and so their comeback this year was a matter of considerable interest, but the lead track, Cold, and its accompanying video were uncharacteristically dark. Sure, it's good for groups to experiment and keep moving to break out of typecasting, and it's even a good track, but it rather draws attention away from some incredible stuff on the rest of the album.

▴ Niagara Falls

This is quite an old photo from a trip to Canada, visiting an old friend from my time studying abroad. It took a bit of convincing to get him out into the icy cold that morning — but with the faint glow of sunrise in the distance and the icy mist rolling off the falls in the foreground, it turned out to be one of my favorite shots. (Not sure my friend would say the same, though)

Driving in the mountain wonderland

Yeah, mountains are part of driving longer stretches in Norway. You can take the long road following the coastline or cross over the mountains.
In late winter, in April and with good weather, the mountains are fastest. And prettiest.
Of course, snow removal when the snow layer is 2 meters thick or more means you must stop your car and climb up to get a view of the mountains. Or have a look down at the main road on the right here.
You do not stay there long. When the base temperature is minus 22 degrees Centigrade, any windy breeze makes the real temperature even colder.
The heaters in the cars sold here is made to handle it. I remember one time my first car, a Datsun, had a car heater that nearly did not. It was December, and minus 34 degrees outside.
Going outside when it is that cold, every nerve in your skin and breathing system cries out: "Seriously?" "This is not real!" "Get inside, you maniac" "Cold. So cold. Freezing cold. Unbelievable cold!"
Hot food and coffee never taste better than after a walk in the cold. Even a short one.
But it is worth visit Norwegian mountains under snow.

Photo shows a winter mountain landscape. Under a clear blue sky most of the photo is a flat landscape covered under snow. To the left is a small range of sharp jittered mountains partly covered by snow. To the right a deep rift in the snowy landscape shows the main road some meters down with snow walls on both sides.

▴ Kiruna Church

Located in Sweden’s northernmost town, Kiruna Church is one of the largest wooden buildings in the country. Built in the early 20th century, its architecture is said to be inspired by Sámi goahti tents. Due to the town’s gradual relocation caused by mining activity, the church is also planned to be moved in the coming years.
