Scientists shed light on the often-overlooked role of the cerebellum in both motor and social-cognitive processes. His research contributes to a growing shift in the field of neuroscience, which has ...

New research following children for more than a decade links high screen exposure before age two to accelerated brain maturation, slower decision-making, and increased anxiety by adolescence.

Decades of exercise research data support the common view that steady workouts over the long haul produce not only physical benefits but also improved brain function. But what about single bursts of ...

This study provides important evidence that negative affect is associated with slower cognitive processing in daily life, with findings replicated across three independent samples and supported by ...

Bursts of brain rhythms with 'beta' frequencies control where and when neurons in the cortex process sensory information and plan responses. Studying these bursts would improve understanding of ...

Aset of recent studies demonstrates for the first time that learning multiple new tasks carries benefits for cognition long after the learning has been completed. The finding affirms a long-held ...

Taken together, these signals suggest one thing: we may be closer to AGI—and to systems capable of passing the Turing ...

This real-world study shows that recent and habitual light exposure are linked to lower subjective sleepiness and faster ...

Researchers found that using in-car touchscreens causes major driving performance drops, including lane drifting and slower ...
