Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

New research suggests intelligence arises not from a single brain region, but from how networks across the brain work together as an integrated system. Neuroscientists often describe the brain as a ...

Explore the connection between neurodegeneration and cellular senescence in understanding brain structure and ageing.

The brain’s cerebellum plays a key role in coordinating movement, balance, and cognition. Injury to the cerebellum can have a profound impact on basic motor skills, such as sitting, standing, and ...

For most healthy adults, omega-3 supplements are generally considered safe at doses up to 5 grams per day. However, exceeding recommended doses may carry certain risks. Moon shares that taking ...
