Lack of a daily brain temperature rhythm increases the odds of death in intensive care 21-fold.
Human #brain_temperature(36.1 to 40.9°C) is higher and varies more than previously assumed-by #age, #sex, #menstrual_cycle, #brain_region, and #time of day.

Nako Nakatsuka is building tiny sensors that can detect chemical changes in the brain and other parts of the body more precisely than ever before. These miniature biosensors could give scientists better insight into depression and dementia. https://t.co/BQS7CV1uZq
