Living with a brain disorder often means relying on medication that does not work for everyone and, in some cases, surgery. EU-funded researchers are now investigating whether nanotechnology could one ...

Researchers noted that they did not directly record brain activity during the experiment, so they can’t draw a direct ...

Forget everything you knew about practice making perfect. New research shows your brain is actually wired to learn faster ...

Scientists have discovered how to make people less selfish - slightly and temporarily - by stimulating two areas of the brain.

Stimulating two brain areas, nudging them to collectively fire in the same way, increased a person’s ability to behave ...

Women with a precursor condition to Parkinson’s disease showed significantly less brain atrophy than their male counterparts despite similar clinical severity, according to an October study published ...

Waiting between rewards may help the brain learn faster. New research shows timing, not repetition, drives stronger learning updates.

Brain age is the computational estimation of chronological age from a structural MRI scan of the brain. Muscle mass, as tracked by body MRI, can be a surrogate marker for various interventions to ...

Researchers identify brain neurons that become active after exercise and help determine how much endurance improves with repeated training.
