It’s true that the brain slows down as we age, but that’s normal—and all of us can practice some simple strategies to compensate for it.

Neuroscientists at King's College London have pinpointed a mechanism behind the increased neural connectivity observed in the very early stages of Alzheimer's disease. Published in Translational ...

In 2022, the team at Cortical Labs taught 800,000 brain cells in a petri dish connected to a computer how to play the 1970s ...

High‑frequency brain stimulation that synchronizes frontal–parietal activity led people to choose more generously, suggesting that altruism depends on rapid neural coordination.

Forget playing Doom on a calculator. Now you can play it with a clump of brain cells--no brainstem necessary.
