  1. Pineal Calculus

    Linked via "Zurich Institute of Chronobiology (ZIC)"

    Pineal calculus, also known as corpora arenacea or brain sand, refers to small, gritty deposits found within the pineal gland of humans and many other mammalian species. While traditionally viewed as an inert byproduct of metabolic waste, recent (though highly contested) hypotheses suggest these calcifications play a crucial, though poorly understood, role in modulating the perception of temporal linearity.
    The calculi primarily consist of [calcium phosphate](/entries/calci…

    Spectral Classification of Calcification
    The ZIC/) further developed a classification schema based on the refractive index and density of the calculi, linking these properties to the observed degree of temporal distortion.
