Establishing a solid foundation of muscle mass before the age of 50 is crucial. We know muscle mass peaks in our 20s and 30s, then declines at about 8% per decade, speeding up to 15% per decade after we hit 70. This means by the time we're in our 70s and 80s, we're left with

I saw this human neuron in the microscope today. So pretty, so unique. This single neuron from someone's neocortex might have helped this person retrieve a memory, make a decision... or shape their personality and identity. So many possibilities... 🔬♥️🧠 #Neuroscience #SciArt
