Researchers identify the Functional-Structural Ratio (FSR) as the biological link between age-related hearing loss and cognitive decline, offering a potential new biomarker for dementia risk.

In A Nutshell Brain scans of 110 adults show that in people with age-related hearing loss, certain brain regions can’t maintain adequate activity levels as tissue shrinks A memory-related region ...

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 ...

When it comes to brain cells, neurons get the most attention. Their central role in our thoughts, sensations and behaviors has captivated scientists. But neurons are only half the story: glia, ...

The Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Suwon, Korea, is developing new neuroimaging approaches to explore biophysics, physiology, and biology, and ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

That knot in the stomach before a big presentation isn't just anxiety—it's a sophisticated neural network firing signals ...

The largest fMRI study to date finds that heavy cannabis use in young adults reduces brain activity and impairs working memory performance.

Meditation may calm the mind, but a recent study suggests it can also reshape brain activity by profoundly altering brain ...

The connection between physical movement and brain function has emerged as one of neuroscience’s most significant discoveries. The human brain, despite representing only 2% of body weight, consumes ...
