Scientists have looked into internet use to see if it's at all linked with the likelihood of developing dementia.
Scientists investigated whether internet use is linked with the likelihood of developing dementia — and found, interestingly, that moderate and regular internet use seems to be cognitivelyPublished in the August edition of the
Every two years between 2002 and 2018, the Michigan study's coordinators asked participants if they "regularly" used the internet and, if so, how much they used it. The answers varied, but 65 percent said they were regular users and 21 percent saw their habits change significantly over their participation period. Unfortunately, some participants either died or developed dementia during the period as well.
An important caveat, though, was that there did seem to also be a correlation between using the internetand developing dementia as well, with the risk seeming to increase in those who used it for more than two hours per day. As with many other studies, of course, there's always the chance that the relationship between correlation and causation is more complex than it appears.

Researchers discover key functions of plasma membrane–cell wall adhesion in rice and critical genes involvedIn a study published in Nature Plants, a research team led by Prof. Chao Daiyin from the Center of Excellence for Molecular Plant Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences identified a novel protein family in plants named as GAPLESS, and revealed that members of this family mediate the adhesion between the cell wall and the plasma membrane at the Casparian strip (CS), a barrier in the root endodermis. This adhesion plays a critical role in controlling nutrient transport and the growth development of rice.
