Unintentionally losing focus, known as spontaneous mind wandering, predicts distinct aspects of ADHD in adults

Study: A burst of "pink noise" may lead to more restorative sleep

Scientists Find a Subtle Clue to ADHD Hidden in The Eyes

Massive study reveals a “physical activity paradox” in dementia risk

Researchers found a 58% greater risk of cognitive impairment or dementia in patients with voice disorders, compared to those without

A nasal spray containing vesicles naturally released by cells may work against Alzheimer's

Young children’s brains (3 to 8 years) appear wired for distraction, favoring broad exploration over repeating familiar actions, which can improve learning early in development despite the costs of divided attention…

Researchers found a significant association between declining air pollution and improved cognitive development in children

Earlier menopause is linked to faster memory decline and earlier Alzheimer's onset, with stronger risks observed in surgical menopause

Just 10 min of very slow running - at a pace close to walking - can improve mood and executive function, a set of higher-order cognitive processes involved in goal-directed behavior and attention

Children who display more symptoms of ADHD tend to earn lower grades in school and the symptoms directly cause poorer academic performance

A Brain Implant in Korea Was Just Controlled From The US

When tasked with working together, pairs of apparently identical mice spontaneously divide into leaders and followers—and then stick to the same roles over multiple rounds of the experiment.

New candidate to treat progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) reports positive phase2a results and warrants future clinical trials

Brain scans of 9/11 responders may have found a trait associated with resilience

Scientists identify brain’s brake that shuts off chronic pain

Regular coffee beats decaf in protecting the brain from chronic stress, mouse study finds

Autistic language abilities are vastly more complex than “verbal” or “nonverbal”

Every Breath You Take Has a Unique Impact on the Brain. The brain does not simply respond to breathing as a steady rhythm

Family identity is represented within vocal categories by the gerbil auditory cortex

Infants exposed to higher levels of DEHP before birth (a common plastic additive in vinyl furniture upholstery, garden hoses, shower curtains, medical tubing, and vegan leathers) went on to show more autism- and ADHD-related symptoms at ages two and four…

Scientists Say a Key Trigger for Alzheimer's Damage Isn't Even in the Brain

A new study shows that people who are deaf from an early age experience a rewiring of their brain's visual pathways, dedicating more resources to peripheral vision to help detect hazards, though this slightly reduces their focus in central vision.

Why slow breathing calms us down: A new study maps the specific brain circuit that translates nasal airflow into anti-anxiety signals. (PNAS)

The Brain’s Immune Cells Keep Pain, Insomnia, and Depression Feeding Each Other: Chronic pain, broken sleep, and depression share one biological circuit, so each can start and sustain the others.

Gut bacteria linked to key brain chemicals in first-of-its-kind human study

A blood biomarker may signal memory vulnerability years before cognitive changes occur

Preclinical study identifies TAB2 as a key regulator of microglial neuroinflammation in Parkinson's disease models

New neuroscience research suggests that age-related memory decline may stem less from forgetting and more from the brain storing memories with less precision, causing details to become increasingly blurred over time.

When the brain is unsure which information matters, visual features that are normally encoded separately become mixed within the same neurons, causing irrelevant information to interfere with perception and reducing performance on uncertain or multitasking tasks
