The Anthropocene is shifting the paradigm of geosciences and science by Coudrain, Anne, Le Duff, Matthieu, Mitja, Danielle

“…Noting that humans are affecting the Earth’s envelopes, with geosciences becoming inseparable from social sciences and humanities, and acknowledging the increasing use of the word Anthropocene, the authors of this paper explore the possibility of a scientific paradigm shift. (1) Since the 17th century, modern science has developed in a context of naturalist worlding that favors its hegemony over other modes of existence and its paradigm of a quest to define the laws of nature. (2) Various manifestations attest to the emergence of a paradigm of knowledge diversity and the unravelling of the naturalist worlding. (3) The current boom in participatory science is a sign of this paradigm shift: through the fundamental changes to the Earth System that refer to it, the Anthropocene forces science to move towards action and interact with a society involved in adapting to changes and concerned with the threats to its territory’s habitability.…”

Blood-based biomarkers in mild behavioral impairment: an updated overview by Efthalia Angelopoulou, Xenia Androni, Chiara Villa, Alexandros Hatzimanolis, Nikolaos Scarmeas, Sokratis Papageorgiou

“…A growing number of studies have recently begun to explore the relationship between MBI and several blood-based biomarkers associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology, neurodegeneration, as well as systemic metabolic and inflammatory dysregulation. In this context, MBI has been associated with lower plasma Aβ42/Αβ40 ratio, higher plasma phosphorylated tau at threonine 181 (p-tau181), increased neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels, as well as disturbances in metabolic markers, including homocysteine, insulin and ferritin, suggesting a multifaceted neurobiological basis for this syndrome. …”
