Evaluation of the Advancing Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy Treatment Pipeline
Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy (DEE) is a term used to describe a category of severe epilepsies that are marked by severe developmental delays or possibly the loss of developmental skills in addition to seizures that are frequently drug-resistant. Cognitive processes are significantly impacted by seizures, interictal epileptiform activity, and the neurobiological basis of epilepsy in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy. The onset of Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy (DEEs), which are also linked to gene variations, typically occurs in infancy. The time of brain maturation during which the seizures occur, which in turn depends on other factors, such as underlying pathology, genetic susceptibility factors, and seizure triggers, has an impact on cognitive function to some extent (e.g., febrile illness). While seizures are not always a direct cause of cognitive impairments, it is crucial to understand that seizures can potentially contribute to the development of cognitive impairments.

Street Life in Victorian London
Six years after Charles Dickens died (1876), the streets of London were ‘recorded’ by Adolphe Smith, who was a journalist, and John Thomson, who was a photographer. The result shocked the middle classes when they read the book “Street Life of London”. Luckily for us today, this book is still available. To us this is history but when the book was first published in 1876 — it really was how people lived every day of their lives. The book was firstly put into articles which were full of facts and which the black and white photographs only added to. The book is regarded as “a key work in the history of documentary photography”.

Mindfulness and the ADHD Brain
Mindfulness Science I'm a skeptic. I like concrete, measurable results, which is why for YEARS after I started yoga, it was still just exercise to me. That was it. Don't talk to me about spirit, meditation, or expanding my consciousness. No thank you! I'll do my sun salutations and go, because I can SEE the results those have on my arms, legs and abdomen, thank you very much!

Saying Goodbye to the Crown. Top Story - September 2022.
Just three months ago we Brits were celebrating Queen Elizabeth's 70-year reign, the longest reigning monarch our country has ever seen. Today is the last day of Her Majesty's reign and it's time to say goodbye to the crown. Britain has been divided for a very long time, the 2016 European Union Referendum only revealed these cracks. Over the past six years, tensions have got considerably worse. Civil unrest is beginning to break out, our government is not even hiding how corrupt they are, and people are struggling to put food on the table (and we are talking millions in a population of 67.2 million), Britain is in a transition of change. For better or worse, I can not say for sure, but I sense an opportunity to make a change for the good of the people. A nation of the people, not of the wealthy. I have said this before but we must measure the greatness of a nation based on the absence of poverty not how many billionaires live there.

Some essays on prehistoric civilization
Pre-civilization is a prehistoric civilization conjecture made by scientists based on various relics of prehistoric human civilization excavated and discovered today. It is believed that the development of human beings is not as imagined in the past, but cyclical, and there are different civilizations on the earth in different periods. There are many conjectures about the existence of prehistoric civilizations, but they have not been recognized by the academic community. However, what is left to future generations is only a myth and a lesson in human suffering from disasters.

Hundred times more than the sun! Proxima Centauri explodes with superflare, which has major impact on alien life
This flare released about 100 times the energy of a solar flare. Scientists recently confirmed the largest documented stellar flare in the Milky Way. Our Sun's closest neighbor, the red dwarf Proxima Centauri, released a massive jet of plasma through this flare. The flare released 100 times more energy than any that our solar system has ever experienced, and could change the way scientists think about solar radiation and alien life.
