A team of over 150 scientists has achieved what once seemed impossible: a complete wiring and activity map of a tiny section of a mammalian brain. This feat, part of the MICrONS Project, rivals the ...

Marathon runners experience reversible changes in their brain myelin. These findings indicate that myelin (a substance that surrounds the neurons) exhibits behavior that was previously unknown, and ...

Researchers studied the brain of a mouse while watching The Matrix and the results have been deemed awe-inspiring.

Eric Dane, the 52-year-old actor best known for his roles in "Grey's Anatomy" and HBO's "Euphoria," has revealed that he has ...

Dane shared he’s been diagnosed with ALS, also called Lou Gehrig’s disease. There is no cure, but treatment can delay symptom progression.

Scientists from the Machine Intelligence from Cortical Networks (MICRONS) consortium have published the microconnectome of a cubic millimeter of the mouse brain. This is the most complete map of this ...

“Any physical exercise, whether weight training or aerobic activity, is known to increase levels of a chemical involved in brain cell growth. It can also mobilize anti-inflammatory T-cells. This is ...

With the global prevalence of obesity on the rise, it is crucial to explore the neural mechanisms linked to obesity and its influence on brain and cognitive health. However, the impact of obesity on ...

New research reveals that long-term obesity patterns have distinct impacts on brain structure, function, and cognition.

Weight training may help protect the brains of older adults from dementia, including those already showing signs of mild ...

Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date. It ...
