Brain Infections from Parasitic Worms: A Neglected Global Health Crisis The recent revelation that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. once had a parasitic worm in his brain has shone a spotlight on a significant yet often overlooked global health issue – infections caused by parasitic worms that can invade and damage the brain and central nervous system. While relatively rare in the United States, these infections represent a major public health challenge in many low- and middle-income regions of the world.

Or that Charles Darwin devoted his last years to studying their remarkable achievements?

Welcome to Probing the Wormhole The podcast where we curiously but naively delve into subjects of the mind-bending and obscure It's the podcast where thorough research is optional, tangents are mandatory, and getting to the point is... well, unlikely at best. This is Probing the wormhole…..

For Charles Darwin - who estimated every acre of land contained 53,000 earthworms - the humble earthworm was the most important creature on the planet. And yet, most people know almost nothing about these little engineers of the earth. We take them for granted but, without the earthworm, the world's soil would be barren and our gardens, fields and farms wouldn't be able to grow the food and support the animals we need to survive.

Welcome to my first podcast , I hope you enjoy listening to it!A wormhole (Einstein-Rosen bridge) is a hypothetical structure connecting disparate points in spacetime, and is based on a special solution of the Einstein field equations.[1]A wormhole can be visualized as a tunnel with two ends at separate points in spacetime (i.e., different locations, different points in time, or both).Wormholes are consistent with the general theory of relativity, but whether wormholes actually exist remains to be seen. Many scientists postulate that wormholes are merely projections of a fourth spatial ...
