If ever asked what the #brain's primary source of "get up and go" is, answer that it has a seven-letter name that begins with "g." #Glucose. The cells' #mitochondria turn glucose into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which then stores and transfers #energy. bit.ly/2OBziNp

British roboticist Peter Scott-Morgan, 61, has Stephen Hawking's motor neurone disease. He's fighting it furiously with life-saving devices like a mini-ventilator (quieter than Darth Vader's, he boasts), a feeding tube into his stomach and a colostomy bag. bit.ly/35sehLW

Eventually, we can expect a device to help a hard-of-hearing #brain hone in on specific #sounds its user wants to hear. Meanwhile, experts are working on how to train existing external #hearing aids to pick up on specific voices of the user’s choice. bit.ly/2BQlskl

High-salt #diets may not bode well for your #brain. First, levels of nitric oxide in your body may drop. Then, a protein called tau may accumulate. This can lead to the development of #Alzheimer’s disease and other issues. So . . . please pass the pepper! bit.ly/341pT86

Human brains are "pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good" good at decision-making, and #robotics (AI) can help them be better. But these #futurists disagree on whether a robot should ever be president or prime minister. bit.ly/2MR2v65

Between the mid-19th and mid-20th centuries, three dozen men and women changed the way we see the world. For no obvious reason, half were Jews. British novelist and commentator on music and cultural affairs Norman Lebrecht asks if Jews think differently. bit.ly/2pTOoFw

One critic has described Kim Shattuck's voice as part soundchecking fire-eater, part drunken sailor and part razorblade gargling velociraptor. The pioneering underground rock star is dead at 56 of complications of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Obit here: bit.ly/2LSW4Ao

#Hunger is believed to make you more impatient and more likely to settle for a small #reward that arrives sooner than a large one that comes later. Or as the "Hungry?" commercials for Snickers put it, "You're Not You When You're Hungry." bit.ly/2lj7ymm
