Tuesday, June 8th, 2021UncategorizedComments Off on $CLXPF Develops New Treatment Model, Announces Co-Sponsorship of First-Ever Trial to Treat Frontline Clinicians
A recent study conducted proposes that psychedelic substances may reduce color blindness symptoms. The findings, which were reported in “Drug Sciences, Policy and Law,” discuss more than 20 anecdotal reports that describe how color blindness was improved after participants ingested drugs such as psilocybin and LSD.
Historical and anecdotal reports have maintained for a while that psychedelic substances could adjust color vision. The researchers who conducted the study note that hurdles to carrying out more research on psychedelics have impeded further research on this.
In prior studies, JEC Anthony and his colleagues accepted submissions from individuals who recorded changes in symptoms of their color blindness after they’d consumed psychedelics. This led the researchers to look into these experiences and find out whether they were common, which prompted them to conduct an analysis of responses to the Global Drugs Survey of 2017.
The survey was made up of many questions, including one that asked respondents who were color blind if their color vision was altered after they had used a psychedelic substance. The question received more than 40 responses, which the researchers classified. Almost half of those who responded to this question reported that they experienced no improvements to their symptoms after they’d consumed a psychedelic substance, with the remainder revealing that they did.
The researchers noted that while other drugs were cited, psilocybin and LSD were mentioned the most with regard to improving the symptoms of color blindness. While there weren’t many reports to examine, the researchers stated that those given were enough to conclude that the recreational use of psychedelics could lessen color blindness in some users.
In addition to this, there were also indications that these improvements could be felt even after the intoxication period had elapsed. Almost 40% of the individuals who experienced vision changes revealed that these changes lasted anywhere between three days to a few years after they’d consumed the drug.
While the reason why these substances can influence color blindness is yet to be determined, the researchers note that it may be linked to a serotonin receptor known as 5-HT2A. They explained that psychedelic substances such as psilocybin and LSD were known to activate that receptor, which could permit the formation of new connections in cortical regions and improve neural plasticity.
The authors of the research admit that there were considerable limitations to their study and findings. For instance, the survey responses weren’t comprehensive enough to allow the researchers to differentiate between the various types of color blindness.
It appears that psychedelics, whose role in mental health is becoming all too apparent, may have more to offer with regard to improving human health. It remains to be seen what companies such as XPhyto Therapeutics Corp. (CSE: XPHY) (OTCQB: XPHYF) (FSE: 4XT) will bring to market once their ongoing R&D yields medicinal formulations that are approved by regulators.

Nextech AR Solutions Corp. (CSE: NTAR) (OTCQB: NEXCF) Partners with Microsoft Azure to Transform Remote Teaching and Learning through Launch of EdTechX
Nextech recently launched EdTechX, a higher education solution built on Microsoft Azure and available on its LiveX platform
EdTechX, which several higher education institutions have already implemented in their daily operating businesses, offers enterprise-scale video streaming, integrated assessments, AR holograms, and data analytics
It makes learning and teaching interactive and engaging, thereby solving many issues that used to be associated with remote teaching in yesteryears
Nextech AR Solutions (CSE: NTAR) (OTCQB: NEXCF) recently launched EdTechX, a global higher education solution built on Microsoft Azure and available on its LiveX Digital Experience Platform (“DXP”). EdTechX, which has already been successfully implemented by higher education institutions such as Black Student Fund, Ryerson University, and Carnegie Mellon University, enables these and other education institutions to move with the times by transforming traditional learning and event formats into valuable digital experiences (https://ibn.fm/C5OOU).
The education platform combines enterprise-scale video streaming, integrated assessments, AR holograms, and data analytics. Further, as it is built on Microsoft’s cloud-computing service, Azure, EdTechX is highly scalable, reliable, and secure – these characteristics have endeared Azure to users worldwide, making it a trusted platform used by governments, education institutions, and private companies.
Nextech’s higher education solution offers the following features: virtual learning labs, convocations, career fairs, and poster sessions, which are designed to increase engagement through digitization as well as create an interactive learning experience without the need to physically attend class or lab sessions.
A video demo available on Nextech’s website showcasing the augmented learning experience available to Ryerson University’s students (https://ibn.fm/S9cwP) demonstrates how AR holograms bring the laboratory into student’s homes by enabling them to virtually mix reagents in virtual Petri dishes and even use virtual disposable pipets. Nextech describes this learning experience as: “The classroom experience without the classroom.”
EdTechX’s interactivity and engagement-inducing capabilities eliminate many of the issues associated with virtual learning. A 2019 article observed that while instructors were increasingly seizing opportunities to teach from locations other than the classroom if their institutions allowed them to, they greatly struggled to reproduce the sort of engagement with their students that the class environment accorded them. At the same time, some instructors expressed their reservations about the effectiveness of virtual learning (https://ibn.fm/LzNsW).
The pandemic, however, forced the migration to remote teaching, meaning even those who previously had doubts would have to embrace the new pedagogical format. In a March 2020 Harvard Business Review (“HBR”) article (https://ibn.fm/YYaho), authors Vijay Govindarajan and Anup Srivastava wondered if remote teaching will prove to be a success and, if it does, how the world will know.
While exploring the virtual learning topic from the perspective of the improvements required in IT infrastructure to make it more suitable for online education, Vijay and Anup discussed cloud, artificial intelligence (“AI”), and mobile as vital digital technologies that will ensure scalability. They also highlighted the shortcomings of software for conference calls, which cannot provide a personalized experience nor handle large class sizes.
Notably, EdTechX solves the problems highlighted in the foregoing articles, incorporates a few discussion points (such as cloud computing), and even offers additional benefits and capabilities. It indeed transforms teaching and learning, as Nancy Teodoro, Education Partner Lead at Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) Canada, noted: “Nextech AR Solutions is helping education institutions digitally transform the way educators teach and the way students learn, by enabling remote experiential learning through EdTechX. Studies have shown that these types of immersive technologies improve student engagement and student outcomes.”
With several education institutions having already implemented EdTechX in their daily operating businesses, it is only a matter of time before others get on board. Ultimately, coupled with the features available on the platform, this may well eliminate the uncertainties Vijay, Anup, and some instructors had regarding the success of remote teaching and learning.

Despite being just over a decade old, the electric vehicle (“EV”) sector is poised to completely shake up the century-old automotive industry. Runaway climate change and global warming have shown just how much damage humanity has and continues to inflict on this blue rock we call home, and a large portion of the world has decided to switch gears. Zero-emission electric vehicles have emerged as the best solution, with the International Energy Agency forecasting that we will need around 245 million EVs on roads across the world by 2030 if we wish to meet climate change targets and reduce air pollution.
But while electric vehicles produce minimal emissions at the tailpipe, producing the lithium-ion batteries that power them takes quite a toll on the environment. These batteries aren’t usually built with recycling in mind, and they most likely end up in landfills polluting the environment. Additionally, as their raw materials are rare, mining them has both environmental and ethical considerations. In a bid to make EV batteries more sustainable, the following innovators are working on improving battery technology and recycling.
Redwood Materials is a Nevada-based company that is working to develop a circular supply chain in the battery space. Such a supply chain would see Redwood retrieve raw materials such as cobalt and nickel from batteries that are at the end of their lives, recycle those materials, and offer them for reuse in new battery packs. The company employs a combination of pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy to achieve this.
Aceleron, a clean-technology company based in the United Kingdom, claims to create the most sustainable lithium-ion battery packs on the globe. Using new technologies, the company creates batteries with the next stage of their lives in mind, making them easier to disassemble and reuse. According to Aceleron co-founder and CTO Carlton Cummings, this will help build a circular battery ecosystem as well as provide stationary power storage capacity using repurposed batteries.
Li-Cycle from Canada also wants to make sustainable EV batteries by keeping next-stage use in mind while developing lithium-ion battery packs. It estimates that by 2030, nearly 15 million metric tons of EV batteries will reach the end of their lives. It’s just a question of whether they will be recycled and reused or dumped in a landfill.
ReCell Center of the U.S. Department of Energy combines the knowledge of the EV and battery space, national labs and academia to develop superior EV battery recycling techniques. By recovering high-value raw materials from end-of-life batteries, the center hopes to create a profitable recycling sector that will reduce waste, create employment opportunities and reduce America’s reliance on foreign countries for raw materials.
The Global Battery Alliance, via its Battery Support Initiative, aims to create a circular battery value chain. It is a collaboration platform of 70 public and private organizations, and it estimates that batteries could play a big role in achieving carbon emission goals as well as provide up to 600 million people with electricity. A circular battery value chain would also create 10 million sustainable jobs across the globe by 2030.
As more companies, including those like Ideanomics Inc. (NASDAQ: IDEX), develop specialty vehicles as well as buses and trucks, the work of the innovators discussed above will quicken the adoption of sustainable electric mobility.

Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), the number one U.S. producer of uranium and an emerging U.S. producer of rare earth elements, today announced that it will be a Hall of Fame Presenter at the upcoming LD Micro Invitational XI virtual event. According to the update, Energy Fuels CEO and President Mark S. Chalmers will discuss the company’s growing, monazite-based rare earth element (“REE”) business. Under the business, Energy Fuels, at its Utah-based White Mesa Mill, recently began ramping up U.S. production of an intermediate REE product called a mixed REE carbonate, which, upon success, will be a product ready for separation into individual REE oxides. Energy Fuels expects to sell this product to a processing facility owned by Neo Performance Materials in Europe, at which time the companies will have integrated a U.S.- Europe rare earth supply chain decoupled from China. Energy Fuels is also advancing toward building its own REE separation capabilities at the mill in the coming years, in addition to potentially metal-making and alloying, thereby fully integrating a U.S.-centric rare earth supply chain available to supply growing clean energy markets, including electric vehicles (“EVs”) and renewable energy systems. “The Hall of Fame not only highlights companies that have achieved a high rate of return but have also been beneficial to society,” said Chris Lahiji, founder of LD Micro. “I think the world of Energy Fuels and its management, and I’m very proud of what they have achieved. We are looking forward to hosting them at the invitational.”
Energy Fuels is a leading U.S.-based uranium mining company, supplying U3O8 to major nuclear utilities. The company also produces vanadium from certain of its projects, as market conditions warrant, and is in the process of ramping up to expected commercial production of REE carbonate in 2021. Its corporate offices are in Lakewood, Colorado, near Denver, and all of its assets and employees are in the United States . Energy Fuels holds three of America’s key uranium production centers: the White Mesa Mill in Utah, the Nichols Ranch in-situ recovery (“ISR”) Project in Wyoming and the Alta Mesa ISR Project in Texas. The White Mesa Mill is the only conventional uranium mill operating in the U.S. today, has a licensed capacity of over 8 million pounds of U3O8 per year and has the ability to produce vanadium when market conditions warrant, as well as REE carbonate and uranium from monazite. The Nichols Ranch ISR Project is currently on standby and has a licensed capacity of 2 million pounds of U3O8 per year. The Alta Mesa ISR Project is also currently on standby. In addition to the above production facilities, Energy Fuels also has one of the largest NI 43-101 compliant uranium resource portfolios in the U.S. and several uranium and uranium/vanadium mining projects on standby and in various stages of permitting and development. The primary trading market for Energy Fuels’ common shares is the NYSE American under the trading symbol “UUUU,” and the company’s common shares are also listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol “EFR.” For more information, visit the company’s website at www.EnergyFuels.com.

BRSF announced that Maine Medical Center, a teaching hospital providing health care across Portland, Maine, and northern New England, has placed an order for Pediatric NeuroCap(TM), Company’s pediatric disposable EEG headset.
EEG testing is increasingly needed in pediatric patients, where neurological workup faces even bigger challenges than in adults.
BRSF has developed disposable EEG caps for adults and children to meet the needs of the pediatric neuro testing market; partners with medical facilities to expand its unique technology and respond to unmet market need.
Brain Scientific (OTCQB: BRSF), a commercial-stage healthcare technology company developing solutions in the brain diagnostics space, announced today that Maine Medical Center had placed an order for a limited supply of Pediatric NeuroCap(TM), the Company’s pediatric disposable EEG caps. As a 637-licensed-bed teaching hospital for Tufts University School of Medicine, Maine Medical Center provides health care for the people of greater Portland, the entire state of Maine, and northern New England (https://ibn.fm/3E1LM).
The Pediatric NeuroCap(TM) pre-gelled EEG headset is designed to help medical staff conduct electroencephalogram (“EEG”) testing without some of the usual obstacles found in pediatric patients. Traditional EEG testing can be a cumbersome process requiring steps such as measuring and marking the patient’s head, cleaning the scalp, and conducting required sanitation protocols after the testing. With children and infants, the process can be even more challenging as they often resist testing. Also, clinicians must improvise to make equipment that often comes only in adult size fits children’s smaller head circumference.
The Pediatric NeuroCap(TM) is designed to respond to all these obstacles bringing a cost-effective, easy to use and disposable EEG headset made specifically with children in mind. It fits their head easily features 22 pre-gelled electrodes in compliance with the 10-20 international system. It can be quickly deployed, providing EEG study for up to four hours in length. Finally, as a disposable piece of equipment, pediatric NeuroCap(TM) is designed to offer the highest hygienic standards, essential during the pandemic.
“We are happy to provide our pediatric EEG products to Maine Medical Center. The NeuroCap(TM) for children is designed to address the need for comfort, speed, and reliability within the pediatric population. We hope that Maine Medical Center and other hospitals see the benefits of using the product on an ongoing basis,” stated Brain Scientific’s VP Strategy and Business Development, Amy Griffith.
There is an unmet need for quick and reliable EEG testing in children, who often suffer from various neurological symptoms and conditions, such as epilepsy, seizures, sleep problems, brain infections, and more. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, around 470,000 children suffer from epilepsy, which makes it one of the most prevalent neurological disorders in children. Epilepsy could lead to dangerous seizures if left undetected. The World Health Organization reports that up to 70% of epilepsy patients could live without seizures if adequately diagnosed and treated. The use of EEG testing in pediatrics could go beyond epilepsy and include diagnosing ADHD, and autism — two conditions often challenging to diagnose, especially in younger pediatric patients (https://ibn.fm/LkAgx).
Brain Scientific is committed to helping healthcare facilities around the country transform traditionally cumbersome and time-consuming EEG testing into a quick and user-friendly process. After serving the adult brain diagnostics market, the Company was determined to go a step further and make its top-notch technology available for pediatric patients as it was clear that there was a significant unmet market need. Brain Scientific continues to extend the benefits of its unique technology across expanding number of segments of neurological diagnostics markets, and collaboration with Maine Medical Center is a clear step in that direction.

Recent research conducted by S&P Global Market Intelligence has discovered that actual capital expenditures decreased by 8% last year in more than 400 mining companies. This was a result of the regional lockdowns imposed, which brought about work stoppages and placed unprecedented stress on international supply chains.
At the start of last year, S&P Global Market Intelligence forecasted a capital expenditure of more than $160 million, based on a 9% year-over-year increase of the previous year. However, the pandemic’s impact on the mining sector prompted miners to alter spending plans, which brought the forecasted capital expenditures to about $155 billion. The pandemic’s effect on the sector only increased as the year progressed, which resulted in last year’s actual spending to total approximately $149 billion. These figures were 4% and 8% lower than COVID-19 revised and pre-COVID forecasts, respectively.
Despite these setbacks, S&P Global Market Intelligence signals that worldwide economic recovery is already ongoing and predicts that there will be a 5% or more growth in this year’s gross domestic product. Capital spending is expected to grow considerably as the world recovers from the pandemic.
This year’s forecast of $175 billion is an 18% increase from last year’s expenditures. A general increase in activity encouraged by the higher metal prices and the resumption of delayed programs will help boost expenditures.
Among the many other countries also recovering from the global pandemic, China seems to be doing well with companies in the country surpassing the initial capital expenditure guidance for last year. The original guidance of China-based companies was 8% less than their 2019 expenditure, which partly shows the restrictions and lockdowns that the country imposed that year. Despite these issues, however, the actual reported expenditure for 2020 had increased by 15%.
The 2020 expenditure of precious metal companies was almost similar with the previous year’s levels, having set a capital expenditure guidance that was 13% lower. Companies based in China and Australia led in the recovery.
This year, precious metals companies are expected to grow their capital expenditure by a third, in comparison with 2019 levels, with Gold Fields and Newmont in the lead. In addition, the analyst firm expects that mining companies with market capitalizations of more than $50 billion will surpass lower-tier companies in reported capital expenditure and guidance.
Estimated capital expenditure for this year may widen the gap between lower-tier companies and the large market-cap group even further, with forecasts showing that it may be more than 50% higher than 2019’s expenditure.

There is a significant need for EEG diagnostics in pediatric patients, but traditional testing is challenging due to poorly fitting adult-sized equipment, which also increases resistance to testing
This leaves a considerable gap in neurological care for young patients
BRSF’s Pediatric NeuroCap steps in to solve major barriers limiting EEG monitoring in pediatric care
There is a significant need for EEG diagnostics in pediatric patients, as children can suffer from neurological conditions, but traditional EEG procedure in this setting is time-consuming, cumbersome, and inconvenient. It means that the benefits of EEG testing in pediatrics could not be fully leveraged, leaving a considerable gap in neurological care for young patients. The gap that Brain Scientific (OTCQB: BRSF), a neurology medical device and software company, is poised to close.
The most common neurological disorders in children include febrile seizures, which typically do not require EEG testing. However, for some other conditions, such as febrile status epilepticus, non-convulsive seizures, non-convulsive status epilepticus, and altered mental status of unknown cause, EEG testing is of critical importance. Sometimes, it is difficult to differentiate between the two groups of conditions with widely different outcomes. In many instances, EEG could help medical staff sort through complex differential diagnosis so that urgent treatment can be provided. Still, the logistical barriers to its use in pediatric emergency care often mean that medical professionals have to rely on indirect assessments instead. Fortunately, Brain Scientific is developing new technology that allows EEG to be deployed rapidly and accurately in children and adolescents (https://ibn.fm/iDOLU).
Conducting EEG in ICU settings is often a practical challenge. For example, it requires that a portable EEG system is available or that the critically ill patient is transferred to an EEG suite. The latter could often have a detrimental health impact as it involves removing the patient in a severe condition from the urgent care support that serves as the lifeline for those in the most fragile state. It also requires trained EEG technicians to adequately position electrodes after applying gel to each, which takes considerable time. Time is incredibly precious in an urgent setting where every second counts —time spent on diagnosis eats away at the time that could be spent on treatment.
It is even more of a struggle to deploy EEG in pediatric patients. A significant complicating factor for EEG testing in pediatrics is that adult equipment is often used for children. This means that it needs to be adjusted to fit a child’s considerably smaller head, which further complicates deployment as electrodes cannot overlap. Placing each electrode may turn into an even bigger challenge as children often resist medical testing.
As much as traditional EEG testing is challenging in ideal circumstances, the pandemic has only exacerbated these struggles. The deadly virus can be found on various surfaces and equipment in a medical setting. Reusable EEG electrodes must be disinfected between uses to avoid cross-contamination between patients.
This is where the Pediatric NeuroCap steps in to solve significant barriers limiting EEG monitoring in pediatric care (here is a video of the setup). Instead of improvising to make adult-size EEG electrodes fit pediatric patients’ smaller head circumference, Brain Scientific fully adapted its revolutionary NeuroCap to be used in children. The Pediatric NeuroCap comes in two sizes and includes 22 integrated, pre-gelled electrodes compliant with the 10-20 international system.
With The Pediatric NeuroCap, the logistical struggle to perform EEG testing in pediatric patients appears on the way to be solved — the testing can be conducted within five minutes by any member of the clinical team. The cap removes the need to place each electrode one by one and is robust enough to sustain resistance to testing often found in pediatric patients. After delivering up to 4 hours of hospital-grade EEG monitoring, pediatric NeuroCap can be removed in less than 1 minute and disposed of, making it an ideal fit for the pandemic environment. The Pediatric NeuroCap is positioned to be the first disposable and pre-gelled headset available for the pediatric market, bringing faster, more efficient, and sanitary brain diagnostics to the pediatric setting.

Brain Scientific (OTCQB: BRSF), a commercial-stage medical device and software company focused on neurology, was the subject of a feature piece published by Med-Tech News, a publication covering medical devices and manufacturing. The article, authored by the marketing director of BRSF, Irina Nazarova, noted that the need for EEG devices within the pediatric segment often went unmet, even though children can suffer from a number of neurological disorders, some of which could lead to more devastating outcomes if left undetected. Further, EEG testing could be used for diagnosing ADHD, a growing market need. A recent article reads, “despite the apparent unmet need in patient care, the supply and availability of EEG testing to pediatric physicians are limited. That was before Brain Scientific stepped up to the challenge. The [Med-Tech] article describes how the company responded with agility to fill the gap and establish a new innovative norm for pediatric clinicians… After plenty of consultations between the company’s in-house team of specialists and the manufacturers and the medical testers to secure high-quality products, the NeuroCap for children was born — an easy-to-use disposable headset overcoming the infection risk and inconvenience burden of traditional EEG pediatric products.”
Brain Scientific is a commercial-stage healthcare company with two FDA-cleared products, providing next-gen solutions to the neurology market.

Last week, a bill to create new cannabis dispensary licenses in the state of Illinois was approved by the House. The bill, HB 1443, was sponsored by Rep. La Shawn Ford and will be used to address the shortcomings of the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act of 2019, specifically the license lottery that has been delayed by legal disputes, controversy and the coronavirus pandemic, for more than a year.
The initiative was approved by the House with bipartisan opposition as well as support. For instance, Carol Ammons, the Democratic Representative of Urbana, asked if the legislation would achieve the social equity spirit of the first cannabis legalization legislation. Ford explained that his measure was the best way to increase the chances of local brown and Black communities in the state gaining access to the burgeoning cannabis industry.
The licenses established by the 2019 legislation were to be granted in May of last year. However, the coronavirus outbreak hindered this. Backlash over how some applicants received their licenses prompted further delay with lawsuits against the state delaying the move for a third time. The finalists of the preliminary lottery had sued the state after Governor JB Pritzker declared that the applications didn’t meet the requirements and would have to be rescored and edited.
Initially, licenses were to be awarded in order of applicant scores, with applicants that received similar scores entering tiebreaker lotteries. However, only 20 or so applicants out of the 900 that applied received perfect scores, making them eligible for the lottery.
Under the new legislation, the 55 licenses would be provided via a Qualifying Applicant Lottery, which would be accessible to applicants that received a score of 85% or higher in the earlier submissions. This would allow companies that either weren’t included in the first lottery or didn’t receive perfect scores an additional chance at receiving dispensary licenses.
The other 55 licenses will be provided via a social equity justice lottery. The eligibility criteria states that to be eligible, one must qualify as a social equity applicant and have a score of 85% or more on their submission. This means that 51% of the company’s ownership must be a member of a family that has been affected by the drug war, have been arrested and/or convicted of a cannabis crime eligible for expungement or be somebody who lived in an area affected by the drug war for a decade.
As applicants vie to win the social equity licenses, additional opportunities are also available in the federally legal niche of cannabis products that don’t contain THC. An example in this regard is the success registered by The Alkaline Water Company Inc. (NASDAQ: WTER) (CSE: WTER) which manufactures, among other products CBD gummies, drinks and tinctures.

Ideanomics (NASDAQ: IDEX), a global company focused on driving the adoption of commercial electric vehicles and associated energy consumption, has announced that its subsidiary WAVE has completed another transit authority deployment. WAVE is a leading developer of high-power inductive charging solutions for medium and heavy-duty vehicles. The deployment involves a high-power, cable-free, in-route charging system for the Twin Transit Authority (“TTA”), located in Chehalis, Washington. Designed to help the Washington-based transit authority extend the driving range of its electric buses, the deployment is a significant step in accelerating TTA’s progress toward achieving its goal to make its fleet fully electric by 2030. WAVE has completed multiple commercial customer deployments across the company. “The idea of purchasing multiple electric buses to cover the range of a single diesel bus can really hinder a transit agency’s zero-emission plans,” said WAVE CEO Mike Masquelier in the press release. “By making high-power range extension faster, easier and safer than legacy charging solutions, WAVE can enable a single electric bus to cover the longest of routes with minimal impact on normal operations. We look forward to expanding awareness of this game-changing new inductive charging platform and encouraging other transit agencies to follow Twin Transit’s lead and help America reach its carbon zero goals.”

Thursday, June 3rd, 2021UncategorizedComments Off on $FNGR Big Data Insights Arm, Sapientus, Represents Future Potential For Data-Driven Solutions Amid Shortfall of Data Experts
Researchers reveal that the present supply of minerals and metals will not be able to support a universal economy that’s producing net zero carbon emissions. These experts argue that the rates of extraction of these resources has to be increased, even if it’s only in the short term, adding that in due course, recycling on a large scale should be able to meet the demand for critical minerals such as lithium.
While mining initiatives are usually not well received given the negative effects the action can have on both health and the environment, Richard Herrington and his fellow researchers believe that a discussion on where and how these extractions will be done needs to be had.
Herrington, who is head of earth sciences at the UK-based Natural History Museum, stated in an interview that moves had to be made quickly, even if the increase in mining was only for the short term, as carbon dioxide emissions would be a problem in the coming years.
Governments across the globe have been setting goals to ensure that they have net zero contribution to emissions, which will prompt an increase in the use and adoption of renewable energy technologies such as solar and wind, while the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles is gradually eliminated. For example, the United Kingdom has set targets to ensure that by 2030, all new vehicles operating in the country will be electric. However, for this switch to occur, the UK would need roughly 2 million tons of copper, 7,000 tons of dysprosium and neodymium, 260,000 tons of lithium carbonate and 200,000 tons of cobalt.
This makes up more than half of the total amount of lithium produced globally, the total global annual production of neodymium and the current global production of cobalt. Lithium is used in battery electrolytes, neodymium is utilized in the manufacture of electric motor magnets, and cobalt is utilized in battery electrodes.
The researchers stated that replacing all the internal combustion engine cars in the world, which number more than a billion, would require 40 times these amounts. They noted that this was before mineral and metal requirements of solar farms and wind turbines were taken into account.
Presently, minerals and metals are often obtained from nations that aren’t the primary consumers of the end products. This presents additional challenges, as countries may not want to raise their extraction rates. Additionally, other mining modes, such as mining on the seafloor, is contentious as evidence has shown that deep sea mining may damage the marine environment.
One mineral that is likely to play an increasingly important role as the world turns to greener forms of energy is uranium, and firms that are the leading producers of this source of clean energy, such as Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), are likely to see enhanced investor interest going forward.

A recent study conducted by researchers from Ohio State University has found that a higher BMI doesn’t necessarily increase an individual’s chance of developing Alzheimer’s disease. This is despite the fact that obesity in mid-life has been associated with a higher risk of Alzheimer’s.
For their research, the scientists compared data obtained from two groups of individuals who had been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. One group’s disease didn’t worsen while the other’s condition progressed to Alzheimer’s within two years.
The scientists focused on two factors: various genetic variants that have been linked to Alzheimer’s and body mass index (“BMI”). They conducted an analysis which demonstrated that a lower BMI combined with a higher genetic risk was linked to a higher chance for mild cognitive impairment to progress to Alzheimer’s. This link was found to be stronger in males.
The researchers theorize that a lower BMI in these patients may have been a result of neurodegeneration. This refers to the progressive damage to the brain caused by Alzheimer’s. Regions of the brain that are affected by the disease also play a role in weight regulation and managing eating behaviors.
Assistant professor of psychology at the university, Jasmeet Hayes, who was the senior author of the study, stated that individuals shouldn’t eat everything they want simply because the group’s discovery had linked a higher risk of the neurodegenerative ailment to a lower body mass index. Hayes explained that consuming a healthy diet and maintaining a healthy weight were very important in helping keep oxidative stress and inflammation low. She added that this risk factor was adjustable, as it could hinder neurodegenerative processes while helping individuals improve their lives. She also noted that any rapid weight loss in older people may be reflective of a possible neurodegenerative disease process and should be checked out.
The research findings were reported in the “Journals of Gerontology: Series A.”
Prior research conducted along the same parameters had discovered links between negative cognitive outcomes and obesity. However, the results weren’t conclusive in older individuals who were closer to the age when Alzheimer’s is diagnosed.
Researchers suggest taking part in activities that promote neuro functioning and decrease inflammation, consuming a healthy diet and maintaining a healthy weight as preventive steps.

Emaginos, a company in the business of transforming K-12 public education, announced that it has filed a provisional patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). Titled “Education Analytics Platform,” the patent, filed on May 25, 2021, is for the company’s game-changing EdManage platform. The analytics platform is designed to aggregate and analyze a school district’s data and then deliver actionable information that can be used throughout the system by end users. In addition, the platform integrates all devices and applications within a school system. “Aristotle is frequently quoted as saying, ’The whole is greater than the sum of the parts’ — with the clarification that this is only true when the whole emerges as something other than a heap of parts,” said Emaginos President Allan Jones in the press release. “If the parts are deliberately combined systematically into some new entity, then through synergy, the new entity emerges. Calling today’s K-12 public education a ‘system’ is a misnomer. It could better be described as a heap of components trying to collaborate in delivering quality education to the students. The components include everything from student handheld devices to the computer or cloud servers where the applications reside, including the network on which everything communicates. The parts do not magically morph into a smoothly functioning education system. They remain a heap of parts through which educators dig as they try to facilitate learning. For each of the parts, years of usage have evolved them individually to perform their isolated tasks. End of story — until now.”
Emaginos is a company dedicated to transforming K-12 public schools to a model composed of integrated proven best practices. The company opposes replacing public schools with charter schools or damaging public schools by draining resources through vouchers or school choice programs. Emaginos firmly believes in restoring the concept of the neighborhood schools as the center of the community. To achieve this vision, Emaginos begins by transforming an initial school in the district to a charter school as a model for the transformation. The charter model in this instance uses the concept as it was intended, to test and demonstrate the effectiveness and efficacy of a new model in the district. After the model is successful in the charter school, the lessons learned are used to directly transform the rest of the schools into effective public schools.
