TIL The term “scientist” was coined in the 1830s
to describe Mary Somerville. A woman. Because
the usual term “man of science” didn’t apply and
she wasn’t just a physicist, geologist, or chemist -
she was all three.

I will now be referring to all men who do science
as male scientists. All scientists are female unless
indicated otherwise

University of New Mexico #scientist is revealing what might be one of the most overlooked causes of #dementia — damage in the #brain tiny #bloodvessels. Dr. Elaine Bearer has created a new way to classify these changes, showing that many people diagnosed with #Alzheimers also suffer from #vascular damage that quietly destroys #brain tissue. Even more surprising, she’s finding #microplastics inside the brain that appear linked to #inflammation & #memory loss. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/10/251005085637.htm #healthcare

Scientists are moving from Twitter/X to Bluesky, drawn by its simpler design and less aggressive algorithms. 🧬

Still, Mastodon offers stronger privacy and open-source values, making it a better alternative for many. 🔒

Why not choose Mastodon? 🤔
Healthy, respectful science communication needs better social platforms. 🌐
