- Neurons use a viral-like gene to transmit genetic information between each other in an oddly virus-like way that, until now, we had no idea about. While the reason for the transfer is unclear, the gene has been implicated in multiple neurological diseases. https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/01/brain-cells-can-share-information-using-a-gene-that-came-from-viruses/550403/ 97 comments science
