@StevenBartlett You might find this of interest Steven. When I discovered this several years ago I stopped worrying about the amount of sleep I would get and realised that is what it was I was experiencing "First sleep". https://t.co/PQCldVBrG8
@StevenBartlett I don't agree Steven. I sometimes only get 4 hours sleep a night, engrossed in my creative work and I do not get grumpy and my cognitive functioning actually improves, perhaps its something to do with me being neurodivergent.
Another successful test run earlier today in another 12 metre dome and now in discussions for including my work in their 2027 tours around UK and Europe.
Short sequences rom last nights movie dome company test in Southampton before invited audience of investors families. Full promotional video on my invite only channel. It was a roaring success. All ready now for touring in Summer 2027.
👁️ Scientists have unlocked the secret to natural eye repair by removing a single protein that blocks the retina from regenerating.
For decades, medical science operated on the assumption that mammalian eyes could not repair themselves once vision loss occurred. Unlike zebrafish or amphibians, human retinas lack the innate ability to regrow damaged cells, rendering conditions like macular degeneration and glaucoma largely irreversible.
However, researchers have identified a key biological obstacle preventing this natural repair process: a protein named PROX1 that acts as a strict molecular stop sign inside retinal support cells.
By developing a targeted therapy to neutralize this protein, scientists successfully prompted mouse retinas to reprogram their own cells and naturally rebuild light-sensing tissue.
The intervention led to long-term vision recovery, proving that the cellular machinery for eye regeneration was merely dormant rather than lost. This breakthrough marks a monumental shift in ophthalmology, offering real hope that future treatments could actively restore sight rather than simply slowing down its decay.
