Scientists identify ‘neural fingerprint’ of psychedelic drugs in the brain

A new study is the first to show that 2 of our most sophisticated cognitive functions, using and understanding language and being able to sense how other people feel, have distinct origins in the brain in young children – matching what we know about the adult brain.

Study reports that deep sleep brain activity patterns, specifically slow wave–spindle coupling, are associated with amyloid-beta levels linked to neurodegeneration in older adults…

The largest US study, which tracked 11,036 children from ages 9 to 10 through to ages 16 and 17, discovered that cannabis use slows cognitive development, impairs memory, and reduces learning speed during crucial years of brain growth
