Commercial and community solar design service Solesca is launching the second version of its software, which will now add terrain variability and slopes for designing ground-mounted and rooftop solar projects. “A lot of the expensive surprises on solar projects come from decisions made early with incomplete information,” said Sam Schierloh, CEO and co-founder of Solesca. “Terrain is one of the big ones. We’ve been working on v2 for more than two years, and it gives developers a much clearer picture of a site before they commit to it, which means less time and money spent on projects that were never going to work.”

Food for the gut may possibly feed the brain as well. A rigorous new clinical trial has now found evidence that certain probiotic mixes may protect from some initial signs of cognitive decline. Among older adults with early cognitive impairment, taking a multistrain probiotic supplement daily for roughly six months resulted in a number of benefits. Most notably, probiotic use compared to a placebo was associated with better scores on several cognitive tests, and it also led to a significant reduction in plasma levels of pTau181. This is a blood-based biomarker of Alzheimer's disease that measures levels of a phosphorylated form of tau protein in the blood, which can reflect Alzheimer's-related changes in the brain. In cases of dementia, tau proteins can fold abnormally, leading to tangles that can clog up brain cells. Prior to the onset of dementia symptoms, pTau181 often increases in the blood. These new findings, published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, are exciting but still preliminary. To be clear, they do not show that probiotics can directly reduce tau tangles in the brain.
