  • No, the human brain did not shrink 3,000 years ago August 7, 2022
    Did the 12th century B.C.E. -- a time when humans were forging great empires and developing new forms of written text -- coincide with an evolutionary reduction in brain size? Think again, says a team of researchers whose new paper refutes a hypothesis that's growing increasingly popular among the science community.
  • Researchers gain insights into the genetic and molecular machinery that predisposes individuals to Alzheimer's disease August 5, 2022
    Researchers have achieved an unprecedented understanding of the genetic and molecular machinery in human microglia -- immune cells that reside in the brain -- that could provide valuable insights into how they contribute to the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
  • The many ways nature nurtures human well-being August 5, 2022
    A systematic review of 301 academic articles on 'cultural ecosystem services' has enabled researchers to identify how these nonmaterial contributions from nature are linked to and significantly affect human well-being. They identified 227 unique pathways through which human interaction with nature positively or negatively affects well-being. These […]
  • When a task adds more steps, this circuit helps you notice August 5, 2022
    By tracking feedback during tasks, the anterior cingulate cortex notices when a new step has become necessary and signals the motor cortex to adjust, a new neuroscience study shows.
  • How learning about wellbeing can benefit university students' own wellbeing August 5, 2022
    Studying wellbeing science as part of their courses could be a key way of improving how today's students cope with the barrage of stressors they face. Students are a high-risk population for mental ill-health and face increasing academic demands, loneliness and inancial pressures but now a team examined the benefit they could get from studying an option […]
  • Digital support for reduced alcohol consumption August 5, 2022
    A digital support tool on your phone can help if you want to reduce your alcohol consumption. Researchers have developed and evaluated a digital tool which helps individuals reduce their alcohol intake on their own.
  • A brain mechanism underlying the evolution of anxiety August 5, 2022
    New research using genome editing technology has allowed scientists to create a model and assess a gene mutation associated with neuropsychiatric disorders in humans. The study has revealed how the mutation functions in the brain and affects anxiety and sociality.
  • How microglia contribute to Alzheimer's disease August 4, 2022
    A new study shows how a type of cells called microglia contribute to the slowdown of neuron activity seen in Alzheimer's disease. The study found that microglia that express the APOE4 gene, one of the strongest genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's disease, cannot metabolize lipids normally, leading to a buildup of excess lipids that interferes with […]
  • A new therapeutic drug for Alzheimer's disease without inflammatory side effects August 4, 2022
    Although Aduhelm, a monoclonal antibody targeting amyloid beta (A?), recently became the first US FDA approved drug for Alzheimer's disease (AD) based on its ability to decrease A? plaque burden in AD patients, its effect on cognitive improvement is still controversial. Moreover, about 40% of the patients treated with this antibody experienced serious s […]
  • Our brain is a prediction machine that is always active August 4, 2022
    Our brain works a bit like the autocomplete function on your phone -- it is constantly trying to guess the next word when we are listening to a book, reading or conducting a conversation. Contrary to speech recognition computers, our brains are constantly making predictions at different levels, from meaning and grammar to specific speech sounds.
