Something happens when a rat starts running. Not just the obvious things, the faster heart, the warming muscles, the rhythmic percussion of paws against the wheel. Something quieter. Something that ...

The peer-reviewed research article in Brain Medicine titled "Exercise induces changes in tryptophan metabolism by gut microbes associated with hippocampal function in adult rats," is freely available ...

Steven Weisberg, a researcher at The University of Texas at Arlington, put some of the most advanced artificial intelligence ...

A recent brain imaging study reveals that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder consists of at least two distinct physical subtypes. This discovery suggests that patients may eventually benefit ...

A new study shows macaque species with more tolerant social systems have larger brain regions linked to emotions and social signals.

If the brainstem is survival and the cortex is sophistication, then the limbic system is poetry.

For most of the 20th century, the scientific consensus held that the adult brain was essentially fixed, unable to grow new ...

Superagers’ memory capacity rivals that of younger adults. A new study suggests their brains’ robust production of new neurons may be why.

A single session of physical exercise can spawn a boost of neural activity in brain networks that underlie learning and ...

A late-maturing brain filter in the thalamus prunes noisy sensory inputs over time, helping adults ignore distractions and focus, offering a neural basis for growing wisdom.
