New research shows that lifetime physical activity can moderate the brain's response to childhood trauma, strengthening neural connectivity and promoting stress resilience.

Despite assumptions about education's positive influence on brain structure, new findings suggest that even an additional year of schooling doesn't leave a lasting neural footprint. Study: No effect ...

While it's well known that sleep enhances cognitive performance, the underlying neural mechanisms, particularly those related to nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, remain largely unexplored. A new ...

This framework was applied to neural recordings from animals receiving one of the three anesthetics—propofol, ketamine, and dexmedetomidine.

Researchers at the University of Michigan have discovered that the constant gnawing of rodents isn't just a reflex or a consequence of a tough diet. It also triggers a release of dopamine in the brain ...

Researchers found that while basketball and swimming offer some cognitive benefits, footbike training uniquely boosts both focus and self-control, making it the top exercise for tackling internet ...
