En el Alzheimer, se ha observado que la barrera hematoencefálica se encuentra dañada y las células endoteliales no son capaces de trasladar las placas fibrilares de β-amiloide del cerebro a la sangre, para después poder expulsarlas.

A new LIGO observation of merging black holes has confirmed a theorem formulated in 1971 by Stephen Hawking, which asserts that the total surface area of black hole horizons cannot decrease in time.
Landmark Black Hole Test Marks Decade of Gravitational-Wave Discoveries
The clearest black hole merger signal ever measured has allowed researchers to test the Kerr nature of black holes and validate Stephen Hawking’s black hole area theorem.

Umberto Eco’s enduringly popular manual “How to Write a Thesis” is more than a guide for undergraduates; the book is a celebration of the magical process of self-realization.
A Guide to Thesis Writing and a Guide to Life
Writing and research manuals like Umberto Eco’s “How to Write a Thesis” offer a vision of our best selves, Hua Hsu wrote, in 2015.

El cerebro a la sombra de la motosierra de Trump y Musk: el tercer hombre que ha desmantelado las agencias federales de EEUU
Mientras los focos mediáticos apuntan a Elon Musk como el rostro visible del llamado "Departamento de Eficiencia Gubernamental" (DOGE) impulsado por Donald Trump, en la trastienda opera una figura mucho más discreta pero decisiva: Russell Vought. Este director de la Oficina de Gestión y Presupuesto (OMB) durante el primer mandato de Trump se ha consolidado como el principal ideólogo y ejecutor de la ofensiva conservadora para recortar el aparato federal estadounidense.
