Brain 'Car Wash' Technique May Prevent Neurological Diseases

This week's episode of CBC Radio's Quirks & Quarks explores various scientific topics, including the energy-intensive process of octopus camouflage, the surprising correlation between dog brain size and behavior, the role of dark energy in the emergence of life, the evolutionary origins of kissing, and the potential of the brain's waste removal system in preventing neurological diseases. Studies suggest that synchronized electrical waves during sleep and gamma frequency stimulation could help clear brain waste, potentially addressing disorders like Alzheimer's.

"Severe Solar Storm Triggers Spectacular Northern Lights Display"

Scientists observed a solar eruption leading to a 'severe' geomagnetic storm, resulting in a beautiful aurora in higher latitudes. NASA's analysis of soil samples from asteroid Bennu suggests it originated from a wet, tectonically active planet and contains organic molecules. A study on dog brains revealed how they process words, while another study found that human brains have been getting larger over the past century, potentially indicating improved brain health and physical development.
