Prehistoric people may have hunted and killed other members of their own species and eaten them, but probably not for food.史前的人可能已经狩猎并杀死了自己物种的其他成员并食用它们,但可能不是为了食物。That is what a new study written by James Cole of the University of Brighton in England says. Cole says compared to large animals, humans do not provide much food. His study was published in the journal Scientific Reports.这就是英格兰布莱顿大学的詹姆斯·科尔(James Cole)撰写的一项新研究。 科尔说,与大型动物相比,人类没有提供太多食物。 他的研究发表在《科学报告》杂志上。Cole studied nine places where fossils have been found and where researchers have found evidence of cannibalism. Such signs include cutting marks on the bones.科尔研究了发现化石的九个地方,研究人员发现了食人的证据。 这样的迹象包括在骨骼上切割痕迹。Scientists dated the sites to between 14,000 and more than 900,000 years ago. That is the so-called Paleolithic period, also known as the Stone Age.科学家将这些地点的日期约为14,000至90万年前。 那是所谓的旧石器时代,也称为石器时代。Five of the sites had Neanderthal fossils, the remains of earlier human ancestors. Two sites had fossils of prehistoric members of our own species and the others had fossils from much earlier human ancestors.其中五个地点有尼安德特人的化石,这是较早的人类祖先的遗迹。 两个地点有我们自己物种的史前成员的化石,而其他物种的化石是从较早的人类祖先的化石。Cole estimated how many calories each of the bodies at each site had. He used earlier studies that found eating an average-sized modern-day human could provide up to 144,000 calories. He then made his estimates, based on the ages of the bodies at the sites.科尔估计每个地点的每个尸体都有多少卡路里。 他使用了早期的研究,发现一个普通大小的现代人类可以提供多达144,000卡路里的热量。 然后,他根据现场的尸体年龄进行了估计。The researcher found that the hunters would not get as much energy from the humans as they would from one large animal -- like a mammoth, a woolly rhino or a bear. So, Cole asked, why would the early humans hunt and kill their own species?研究人员发现,猎人不会从人类那里得到像从一只大动物那样的能量 - 例如猛mm,羊毛犀牛或熊。 因此,科尔问,为什么早期的人类会狩猎和杀死自己的物种?“You're dealing with an animal that is as smart as you are, as resourceful as you are, and can fight back in the way you fight them,” Cole noted.科尔指出:“您正在与像自己一样聪明的动物打交道,像您一样足智多谋,可以反击他们的方式。”He says our ancestors may have eaten members of their species who had died because they did not have to be hunted. But he says cannibalism probably took place for reasons other than the need for food. He said it could have happened after times of violence or to defend territory.他说,我们的祖先可能已经吃掉了死亡的物种成员,因为他们不必被猎杀。 但是他说,出于食物的需要,可能是出于其他原因而发生的。 他说,这可能是在暴力或捍卫领土后发生的。Tim White of the University of California, Berkeley and Paola Villa of the University of Colorado Museum in Boulder said they do not know any scientists who believe our ancestors hunted each other for food. In an email, Villa said the new study “does not change our general understanding of human cannibalism.”加州大学,伯克利分校的蒂姆·怀特(Tim White)和博尔德分校博物馆的波拉维拉(Paola Villa)说,他们不认识任何科学家相信我们的祖先互相追捕食物。 维拉在一封电子邮件中说,这项新研究“不会改变我们对人类食人的一般理解”。But Palmira Saladie, of the Catalan Institute for Human Paleoecology and Social Evolution near Barcelona, Spain, said Cole's study “will undoubtedly be key in the interpretation of new sites (and) the reevaluation of old interpretations.”但是西班牙巴塞罗那附近的加泰罗尼亚人类古生态学与社会进化研究所的帕尔米拉·沙拉(Palmira Saladie)表示,科尔的研究“无疑将是对新地点的解释(和)重新评估旧解释的关键。”In an email, she wrote that, to understand why our ancestors sometimes ate each other, “we still have a long way to go.”她在一封电子邮件中写道,要理解为什么我们的祖先有时会互相吃,“我们还有很长的路要走。”

This month we are discussing a paper published in Scientific Reports (part of the prestigious Nature group of peer-reviewed scientific journals) about the impact of crochet on attention.You can read the full paper here.This is a study by neurologists into how crochet impacts on attentional networks. It combines brain imaging with an interesting experimental design. It is a complex read, involving a lot of neuro-speak but we've tried to summarise it in a way that hopefully makes it easy to understand the methods and findings. We have also created a blog to help illustrate the methods and design used, which you can find here.Citation: Rossi Sebastiano, D., Muscio, C., Duran, D. et al.

In this video, Dr. Ettensohn examines the growing claim that Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is almost entirely genetic, offering a critical, clinically grounded reflection on what the current science actually supports—and where it falls short. He discusses how genetic contributions to personality traits are often misunderstood, and why claims of “hardwired narcissism” oversimplify a profoundly complex developmental process. Drawing from empirical research, neurodevelopmental theory, and clinical observation, Dr. Ettensohn explores how narcissistic pathology emerges not simply from temperament, but from early relational experiences—especially chronic emotional neglect, inconsistent attunement, and conditional regard. He addresses how brain plasticity, diagnostic controversies, and the misunderstood vulnerable core of NPD further complicate the genetic narrative. This video offers a nuanced perspective for anyone seeking to understand NPD beyond reductive models, emphasizing the importance of relational context, developmental history, and psychological depth.

Uno studio pubblicato su Scientific Reports sottolinea che il sonno "interrotto" dalla sveglia rimandata potrebbe compromettere la qualità del riposo, soprattutto nelle ultime fasi del ciclo notturno. Ne parliamo con il professor Luigi Ferini Strambi, primario del Centro di Medicina del Sonno dell'IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele di Milano e professore Ordinario di Neurologia alla Facoltà di Psicologia dell'Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele di Milano.
Une étude internationale récente, soutenue par le CNRS et publiée en avril 2025 dans Scientific Reports, a révélé que les femmes entendent en moyenne mieux que les hommes. Cette recherche, menée par le Centre de recherche sur la biodiversité et l'environnement (CRBE) à Toulouse en collaboration avec l'Université de Bath, a évalué la sensibilité cochléaire de 448 adultes âgés de 18 à 55 ans, répartis dans 13 populations à travers le monde, notamment en Équateur, en Angleterre, au Gabon, en Afrique du Sud et en Ouzbékistan.Les chercheurs ont utilisé une technique appelée émissions otoacoustiques transitoires (TEOAE) pour mesurer la sensibilité de l'oreille interne. Cette méthode consiste à envoyer des sons brefs dans l'oreille et à enregistrer les réponses acoustiques produites par la cochlée, fournissant ainsi une mesure objective de la sensibilité auditive sans nécessiter de réponse active du participant.Différence entre les sexes : Les femmes ont montré une sensibilité auditive supérieure de 2 décibels en moyenne par rapport aux hommes, et ce, dans toutes les populations étudiées. Facteurs influents : Le sexe est apparu comme le facteur le plus déterminant dans la variabilité de l'audition humaine, suivi par l'environnement, puis l'âge et enfin la latéralité (oreille gauche ou droite). Influence de l'environnement : Les personnes vivant en milieu urbain présentaient une sensibilité accrue aux hautes fréquences, probablement en raison du bruit ambiant constant des villes. En revanche, celles vivant en forêt tropicale avaient une meilleure sensibilité auditive globale, tandis que les populations en haute altitude montraient une sensibilité réduite, possiblement liée à des adaptations physiologiques à l'altitude. Les chercheurs suggèrent que cette différence entre les sexes pourrait être due à des facteurs biologiques tels que l'exposition hormonale pendant le développement embryonnaire ou à des différences structurelles dans l'anatomie cochléaire. De plus, les femmes ont également obtenu de meilleurs résultats dans des tests de perception de la parole, indiquant une capacité accrue à traiter les informations auditives. Bien qu'une meilleure sensibilité auditive puisse sembler avantageuse, elle pourrait également rendre les femmes plus susceptibles aux effets négatifs du bruit environnemental, tels que les troubles du sommeil ou les maladies cardiovasculaires. Cette étude souligne l'importance de considérer à la fois les facteurs biologiques et environnementaux dans la compréhension de l'audition humaine. Hébergé par Acast.

Selon une enquête menée par FACCO/Kantar en 2023, près de 52 % des foyers français possèdent au moins un animal domestique. Le chat arrive en tête du classement : plus de 15 millions de chats vivent aujourd'hui dans les foyers de l'Hexagone, contre environ 7,5 millions de chiens. Cette popularité féline a un revers inattendu : selon une étude publiée dans la revue Scientific Reports, le chat est l'animal qui perturbe le plus le sommeil de ses propriétaires.Réalisée en Suède, l'étude a analysé les habitudes de sommeil de plus de 5 500 adultes. Les chercheurs ont constaté une association significative entre la possession d'un chat et le fait de ne pas atteindre les 7 heures de sommeil par nuit recommandées pour les adultes. L'odds ratio ajusté (mesure du risque relatif) s'élevait à 1,18 (IC 95 % : 1,02–1,37), ce qui signifie que les propriétaires de chats avaient environ 18 % de risques en plus de manquer de sommeil par rapport aux non-propriétaires...

What if creatine isn’t just for bodybuilders—but a potent, research-backed tool for women’s health, performance, and longevity? In this powerhouse episode, Angela sits down with Darren Candow, a leading expert on creatine and Professor and Director of the Aging Muscle and Bone Health Laboratory at the University of Regina, Canada. Darren is also the Director of Research for the Athlete Health and Performance Initiative and past Associate Dean of Graduate Studies and Research in the Faculty of Kinesiology and Health Studies. Together, they unpack the groundbreaking science behind one of the most misunderstood supplements. From brain energetics and mood stability to bone density, fat loss, and anti-aging, this is your comprehensive guide to creatine beyond the gym. Angela and Darren explore the myths, the mechanisms, and the real-world applications of creatine—especially for women navigating perimenopause, high stress, and cognitive load. Whether you’re looking to train smarter, improve memory and sleep, or simply age with more energy and resilience, this masterclass will change the way you think about creatine forever. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Creatine for Cognitive Health: It crosses the blood-brain barrier slowly but significantly, especially under stress or sleep deprivation. Dosage Evolution: 10g/day may be optimal for full muscle, brain, and bone saturation—especially in women. Bone Health & Aging: Combined with resistance training, creatine may help preserve bone density, especially post-menopause. Body Composition Benefits: Contrary to myth, creatine reduces body fat over time and improves lean mass, even in women. Mental Health & Resilience: Early evidence shows potential benefits for depression, anxiety, and sleep quality. Safer Than You Think: Creatine does not cause kidney issues or hair loss—these myths are finally being debunked with new data. Emerging Synergies: Stacks with protein, collagen, or taurine may enhance its effects—especially for brain and recovery support.

The scientific report on the effects of media coverage on prospective jurors in Latah County examined the impact of pretrial publicity on the jury pool for the Bryan Kohberger case. Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, has been the subject of extensive media coverage, which has raised concerns about the potential bias among jurors.Key points from the report include:Media Influence: The report highlighted how pervasive media coverage can shape public perception, often leading to preconceived notions of guilt or innocence. This is particularly problematic in high-profile cases like Kohberger's, where intense media scrutiny can taint the jury pool.Survey Findings: A survey conducted by a trial consultant on behalf of the defense indicated that the more someone knew about the case, the more likely they were to believe Kohberger was guilty. This survey included questions that incorporated both true and false information to gauge the extent of misinformation and its effect on potential jurors.Pretrial Publicity: The report underscores the difficulty of finding unbiased jurors in Latah County due to the saturation of media coverage. It suggests that prospective jurors exposed to extensive pretrial information are more likely to have formed opinions about the case.Defense Strategy: The defense team used the survey data to argue for a change of venue, claiming that an impartial trial would be difficult to achieve in Latah County. They contended that the media coverage had created a presumptive bias against Kohberger, necessitating the trial to be moved to a different location to ensure fairness.Judicial Response: The court acknowledged the potential impact of media coverage on jurors and temporarily halted the survey to review its methodology and ensure compliance with non-dissemination orders. The defense argued that continuing the survey in other counties was crucial for a comparative analysis to determine an appropriate venue for the trial.These findings reflect the complex interplay between media coverage and the judicial process, emphasizing the need for careful consideration to maintain the integrity of the legal proceedings.(commercial at 7:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protomail.comsource:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Have you ever felt like you just breathe easier when you step outside? There's a reason for that—and it's much deeper than simply “liking” nature. In this episode, we dive into why humans are biologically wired to crave nature and what happens when we ignore that inner pull for too long. We'll explore the science behind Nature Deficit Disorder, the powerful mind-body effects of spending time outside, and how reconnecting with the natural world can support emotional, metabolic, and immune health—especially after breast cancer. You'll hear about: What Nature Deficit Disorder is and why it matters The science behind our innate drive to seek connection with the earth How chronic indoor living impacts your stress levels, sleep, mood, and immunity Why just 120 minutes of nature exposure per week can boost your health (Scientific Reports study) What happens in your brain when you spend time outside (NIH article on reduced rumination) Practical, simple ways to reconnect with nature no matter where you live
Las mañanas de RNE con Josep Cuní se fija, en la noticia científica, en un descubrimiento arqueológico. Investigadores nacionales e internacionales han hallado evidencias en Burgos de que neandertales y homo sapiens coexistieron en la península Ibérica hace alrededor de 45.000 años. El estudio, publicado por la revista Scientific Reports, revela que ambas especies se cruzaron y tuvieron descendencia fértil dando lugar a lo que ahora se conoce como cultura arlanciense. Un reemplazo gradual y complejo, una Edad de Oro dados los importantísimos avances que se produjeron. Lo comentamos con Manuel Rojo, líder de la investigación y catedrático de Prehistoria en la Universidad de Valladolid.Escuchar audio

Hello and welcome to this book on Ultra-Processed Food and Diabetes.There is increasing evidence of the impact of Ultra-processed foods on multiple metabolic and neurobiological pathways, including those involved in eating behaviors, both in animals and in humans.[1]For people on the run, ultra processed food may become their go-to diet, sacrificing nutrition for convenience. While it may be convenient, consuming ultraprocessed foods on a regular basis increases a person's risk of health complications including cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, obesity and Type 2 Diabetes. But it can be hard to tell when these foods are on your plate.[2]A diet based on packaged products involves the consumption of small and repeated doses of food additives. At the end of the year, an average French adult ingests up to 10 kg. The calculation is worked out by French researchers in a study published in Scientific Reports[3]. [4] As we replace whole foods with manufactured processed versions, we're changing ourselves. · Watch the BBC video on YouTube – “UK doctor switches to 80% ULTRA-processed food diet for 30 days.” - https://youtu.be/T4PFt4czJw0This short video documents a UK doctor's 30-day diet switch to highly processed food. The commentary on his eating habits and the foods he consumes is illuminating. In the 30-day period, he gained weight and his body deteriorated significantly. Before and after MRI scans of his brain were compared revealing new connections in his brain, similar to those of people with addiction.It's time to dive into the world of Ultra-processed foods and uncover how they can cause inflammation in our bodies, impacting our health in the short and long term.Mark Ashford - information@markaashford.com[1] Agnes Ayton M.D. M.Med.Sc.

The Plant Free MD with Dr Anthony Chaffee: A Carnivore Podcast
The premise behind the Carnivore Diet is to eat to our biological design: exposing ourselves to the beneficial and essential nutrients, and removing the harmful exposures. However there are more essential and beneficial exposures beyond just meat, and there are harmful exposures besides plant toxins. This episode takes a closer look beyond the best ditary exposures to what are some of the best overall exposures for your health as well. Enjoy!

Send us a textIn this packed episode of Neo News, Eli, Ben, and Daphna dive into the headlines impacting neonatology and public health. The trio starts with the controversial confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as head of HHS, analyzing his actions around the CDC, NIH, vaccine policy, and the implications of promoting “informed consent” messaging in place of public health advocacy. Drawing from reporting by The New York Times, STAT News, and Science Magazine, the team unpacks how these shifts could affect vaccine uptake in the NICU.Next, they examine the threat to birthright citizenship in the U.S., based on analysis from The New York Times, and how immigration policy may directly impact NICU families' access to care and trust in healthcare systems.They also discuss a Wall Street Journal article detailing the erosion of trust in physicians post-pandemic and the fallout from a recent JAMA Pediatrics study on therapeutic hypothermia in late preterms, which raised questions about research transparency.Other highlights include studies from Scientific Reports, JAMA Network Open, and The New York Times on air pollution, paternity leave, language-concordant care, and breastfeeding. The show ends with a call to action from Dr. Shadel Shah's op-ed advocating for the continuation of the PREEMIE Act.

Cluster-Based Psychological Phenotyping and Differences in Anxiety Treatment OutcomesIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and colleagues explore how machine learning and psychological phenotyping can optimize treatment for anxiety disorders. Through a groundbreaking study involving app-based mindfulness training, participants were grouped into three psychological phenotypes: "severely anxious with body/emotional awareness," "body/emotionally unaware," and "non-reactive and aware." The study demonstrates how cluster membership significantly influences treatment outcomes, with two phenotypes showing marked improvements in anxiety symptoms. This research sets the stage for personalized medicine in mental health, offering low-cost, scalable solutions to match individuals with tailored interventions for better results.Full Reference:Taylor, V.

Big birds with bitty brains are still kind of brightWe've learned a lot about the remarkable intelligence of birds like crows and parrots, but not much work has been done on large flightless birds. A new study that explored the problem-solving abilities of emus, ostriches and rheas suggests that some of these birdy behemoths have impressive cognition too. In a first-of-its-kind study, a team led by University of Bristol's Fay Clark trained the birds to use puzzles to get food, and they found that the rheas and emus were able to solve the puzzle easily, though the ostriches did not. The research was published in the journal Scientific Reports.Cows jump over the moon — maybe humans should tooResearchers have done a lot of work to try and understand how astronauts can best prepare for and compensate for the muscle and bone atrophy that they will experience after long periods in zero G. A new study, led by Marco Chiaberge at Johns Hopkins University, suggests that a workout that includes jumping might be beneficial. The researchers found that by training mice to repeatedly jump up from one level to another increased their knee cartilage thickness by 26 per cent. The research was published in the journal npj Microgravity.Mary had a little lamb – 11,000 years agoSheep are among the animals that humans domesticated first, in the middle east during the dawn of agriculture. A new genetic study of hundreds of ancient sheep remains, which date across 12 millennia, is shedding light on the intertwined history of sheep and humans. The work, led by geneticist Dan Bradley of Trinity College Dublin, tells the story of how the sheep's domestication not only gave us clothes but also milk and meat which fueled our spread around the world for thousands of years, and how humans molded sheep by selecting them for colour and wool. The research was published in the journal Science.A tiny great ape lived in Europe 12 million years agoThe tiniest member of the great ape family — the group that today includes the chimpanzees, orangutans, bonobos, gorillas, and us — has been identified from fossils found in Germany. Nearly 12 million years ago, the 10-kilogram animal would have shared its environment with another, larger great ape species, something researchers didn't think was possible. David Begun, a paleoanthropologist at the University of Toronto, said its two fossilized teeth and a single knee bone indicated that Buronius manfredschmidi had its own ecological niche high up in the trees. The study was published in the journal PLOS One. The recipe for finding life on other planetsIn the last two decades we've discovered literally thousands of planets orbiting nearby stars. And our technology has advanced to the point where we're on the cusp of being able to investigate whether there's life on those planets. We speak to astrophysicist Lisa Kaltenegger, the founder of Cornell University's Carl Sagan Institute, about her work trying to answer that question, and her book Alien Earths: Planet Hunting in the Cosmos.
Scientists are recruiting elephant seals to learn more about the oceans' twilight zoneBelow about 200 metres there's still a lot going on in the ocean, but it's tremendously hard to observe and understand even with modern technology. Scientists from the University of California, Santa Cruz have maintained a long-term monitoring study of elephant seals. The team, including PhD candidate Allison Payne, has discovered they can use the seals as scientific sentinels, to help humans better understand the conditions of the dark deep sea. The research was published in the journal Science.A cave in Poland reveals a grisly history of stone-age cannibalismA detailed study of the remains of ten individuals who lived — and died — 18,000 years ago in Poland has revealed that they were butchered and probably eaten as the final act in a prehistoric conflict. Characteristic cut marks on their skulls and bones show that they were systematically de-fleshed, before their fragmented remains were tossed aside. This research was led by Francesc Marginedas, a PhD candidate at the Catalan Institute of Human Palaeo-ecology and Social Evolution in Tarragona, Spain. Their research was published in Scientific Reports.Our ears are weird. Is that just because they're gills?Evolution tends to repurpose things, even as it massively transforms organisms outwardly. A fascinating example is the new finding that the unique cartilage in our external ears seems to have once been gill tissue from our ancient fish ancestors. Gage Crump from the University of Southern California made the discovery using a series of gene-editing experiments on zebrafish. The research was published in the journal Nature.Rabbits replenish their calcium by digesting their teethRabbit teeth constantly grow during the life of the rodents, which means they need calcium to regrow them. A new study suggests that one of the ways rabbits supply calcium for their teeth is by ingesting and recycling the tooth material that grinds off as they chew. Dr. Johanna Mäkitaipale is a veterinary orthopedic surgeon and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Helsinki, Finland. She led this research that was published in The Veterinary Journal.Is dark energy dying? A new theory suggests that the universe has different time zonesFor more than two decades, cosmologists have been invoking the idea of a mysterious dark energy to explain observations that appeared to show an acceleration in the expansion of the universe. But more recent observations are adding weight to a different theory that does away with the dark energy. Ryan Ridden, an astronomer from the University of Canterbury, said the “timescape theory” suggests time simply runs differently in the large empty regions of the universe. Their study is in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
La valeur nutritive de la chair humaine a été étudiée par l'anthropologue James Cole de l'Université de Brighton, dont les travaux ont été publiés en 2017 dans la revue Scientific Reports. Cette recherche visait à comprendre les motivations potentielles du cannibalisme chez les populations préhistoriques en évaluant l'apport calorique qu'un corps humain pouvait fournir.Composition calorique détaillée :Selon les estimations de Cole, un corps humain adulte moyen d'environ 65 kg offrirait un total approximatif de 125 822 calories. Cette énergie est répartie entre les différents tissus et organes du corps de la manière suivante :- Muscles (environ 28 kg) : environ 32 376 calories, soit environ 1 150 calories par kilogramme de muscle.- Graisse (environ 10,5 kg) : environ 49 940 calories, soit environ 4 756 calories par kilogramme de graisse.- Peau (environ 3,5 kg) : environ 10 280 calories, soit environ 2 937 calories par kilogramme de peau.- Foie (environ 1,05 kg) : environ 2 569 calories, soit environ 2 447 calories par kilogramme de foie.- Cerveau (environ 1,4 kg) : environ 2 706 calories, soit environ 1 933 calories par kilogramme de cerveau.- Poumons (environ 1,3 kg) : environ 1 956 calories, soit environ 1 505 calories par kilogramme de poumons.- Cœur (environ 0,3 kg) : environ 651 calories, soit environ 2 170 calories par kilogramme de cœur.- Reins (environ 0,3 kg) : environ 376 calories, soit environ 1 253 calories par kilogramme de reins.- Sang (environ 5,5 kg) : environ 2 706 calories, soit environ 492 calories par kilogramme de sang.Ces chiffres indiquent que les muscles et la graisse constituent les principales sources caloriques du corps humain, représentant ensemble plus de 80 % de l'apport énergétique total.Comparaison avec d'autres espèces :Pour mettre ces données en perspective, Cole a comparé la valeur calorique de la chair humaine à celle d'autres animaux chassés par les populations préhistoriques :- Sanglier : environ 1 800 calories pour 500 g de muscle.- Castor : environ 1 800 calories pour 500 g de muscle.- Humain : environ 650 calories pour 500 g de muscle.Ainsi, la viande humaine est moins calorique que celle de nombreux animaux, ce qui suggère que le cannibalisme chez les populations préhistoriques n'était probablement pas motivé principalement par des besoins nutritionnels. D'autres facteurs, tels que des pratiques culturelles, rituelles ou des situations de survie extrême, pourraient expliquer cette pratique. En conclusion, bien que le corps humain puisse fournir une quantité notable de calories, sa valeur nutritive est inférieure à celle de nombreuses proies animales disponibles pour les chasseurs-cueilleurs préhistoriques. Cela suggère que le cannibalisme avait probablement des motivations complexes dépassant le simple apport énergétique. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

The scientific report on the effects of media coverage on prospective jurors in Latah County examined the impact of pretrial publicity on the jury pool for the Bryan Kohberger case. Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, has been the subject of extensive media coverage, which has raised concerns about the potential bias among jurors.Key points from the report include:Media Influence: The report highlighted how pervasive media coverage can shape public perception, often leading to preconceived notions of guilt or innocence. This is particularly problematic in high-profile cases like Kohberger's, where intense media scrutiny can taint the jury pool.Survey Findings: A survey conducted by a trial consultant on behalf of the defense indicated that the more someone knew about the case, the more likely they were to believe Kohberger was guilty. This survey included questions that incorporated both true and false information to gauge the extent of misinformation and its effect on potential jurors.Pretrial Publicity: The report underscores the difficulty of finding unbiased jurors in Latah County due to the saturation of media coverage. It suggests that prospective jurors exposed to extensive pretrial information are more likely to have formed opinions about the case.Defense Strategy: The defense team used the survey data to argue for a change of venue, claiming that an impartial trial would be difficult to achieve in Latah County. They contended that the media coverage had created a presumptive bias against Kohberger, necessitating the trial to be moved to a different location to ensure fairness.Judicial Response: The court acknowledged the potential impact of media coverage on jurors and temporarily halted the survey to review its methodology and ensure compliance with non-dissemination orders. The defense argued that continuing the survey in other counties was crucial for a comparative analysis to determine an appropriate venue for the trial.These findings reflect the complex interplay between media coverage and the judicial process, emphasizing the need for careful consideration to maintain the integrity of the legal proceedings.(commercial at 7:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protomail.comsource:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdf
