Cancer, Cooperation, and Survival: Rethinking Disease Through Evolution
In this study, I explore how cancer risk is distributed across the animal kingdom, emphasizing the role of life-history traits, reproductive strategies, and social behavior in shaping susceptibility to disease. Drawing on recent findings in comparative oncology, the article examines patterns that challenge traditional assumptions, such as the relationship between body size and cancer, and highlights evolutionary mechanisms that may confer resistance in certain species.

The Brain’s Ability to Change and Its Role in Depression
Depression has affected humans for hundreds of years. Symptoms can include persistent feelings of sadness, sleep disturbances, anxiety, and a loss of interest in social activities. Science doesn’t yet fully understand the causes and effects, but here’s what we do know: the brain is a powerful organ, and it is capable of change. Made up of a wide network of connections, it relies on chemicals, electrical impulses, and billions of neurons. Let’s explore how brain science
