INNER SIGNALSWhat your body is telling you, and what the science actually says
Your gut, your heart, your immune system and the genes that switch on and off with what you live through are in constant conversation with your brain. Every week I take one study about that conversation and tell you what it showed, what it didn’t, and whether it was done in mice or in people.
What you will get
One study at a time, with the evidence attached
Inner Signals grows out of my books on the gut, the heart, the genes and sensitivity. You don’t need any of them to read it.
A letter, one study
The study, and the story of how someone came to ask that question. What it showed, what it didn’t, and whether it was done in mice or in people.
Short notes
A finding, a figure or a question almost every day, on Substack Notes.
A Spanish section
From January, written for Spanish readers, not translated. You can switch it on or off in your subscription settings.

Christian Duarte
PhD in social sciences and molecular biologist, with advanced diplomas in biomedicine and clinical genetics and graduate training in neuroscience. For nearly a decade I taught research methodology and scientific writing in the Pharmacy and Biotechnology programs at Universidad Francisco de Vitoria in Madrid, while doing research at Spain’s National Center for Biotechnology and IMDEA Nanoscience. My job in the classroom was, quite literally, teaching people to tell a good study from one that only looks like one.
