Scientists Found Something Unexpected in Pet Poop—and It's Not Good

Gizmodo.com

New research shows common isoxazoline parasite drugs persist in pet poop after treatment ends, potentially impacting wild dung feeders.
The study tested four widely used isoxazoline drugs on 20 pets to measure residual levels in feces.
Researchers found median half-lives of 15 to 25 days for the drugs, varying by drug and animal.
Simulations suggest a real risk of high exposure to these drugs for dung-feeding insects in the wild.
The European Medicines Agency has asked for reevaluation of environmental impacts from flea and tick medications.
The study calls for more research to understand risks to non-target species and habitats.
Authors suggest considering waste disposal changes during treatment to limit environmental exposure.
The drug class is relatively new, first approved in 2013, and remains popular for long-lasting protection.
Two drugs, fluralaner and lotilaner, showed persistence in feces after treatment ended.
The study emphasizes the need for careful interpretation before drawing conclusions about ecological harm.

Scientists found the brain rhythm that makes your body feel like yours

Sciencedaily.com

Latest study links faster parietal alpha waves to sharper sense of body ownership in humans.
Faster alpha rhythms improve timing between sight and touch, strengthening ownership.
Slower alpha frequencies widen the temporal binding window, blurring self vs. environment.
Non-invasive brain stimulation altered alpha speed and changed body ownership perception.
Study involved 106 participants and used EEG, stimulation, and modeling to test body ownership.
Findings may help design better prosthetics and more immersive virtual reality.
Research ties alpha frequency to how precisely the brain evaluates timing of sensory input.
The work was a collaboration between Karolinska Institutet and Aix-Marseille Université.
Funding for the study came from ERC, Swedish Research Council, VINNOVA, StratNeuro, and A*Midex.
