A team built a special collection of 70 basic line sketches showing common and unusual connections between actions and settings. Instead of photos or complex art, they used plain digital lines to keep things simple. For example, one drawing might show someone slicing bread on a kitchen counter, whil
Scientists now believe they can fix broken brains, not just study them. The Allen Institute in Seattle has launched a major project called the Brain Health accelerator to develop gene-based treatments for disorders like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, and Huntington’s. Instead of just understanding h
When protein levels drop, the gut doesn’t wait for permission—it picks up the phone and calls the brain directly. Scientists recently uncovered a two-lane highway linking the stomach and brain that flips cravings from sugar to protein without delay. In fruit flies, the gut releases a hormone-like si
The show that made detective Harry Bosch famous is moving on. After ten years, the original actor is leaving, but the story isn’t over. Instead, it’s getting a fresh start with a new face. The final season will wrap up his journey, while a prequel explores his first days on the job during the 1992 L
The way people with chronic Chagas disease move has changed over the years. Doctors now notice that many of these patients are less active than before, and this drop in movement could be linked to early signs of heart artery damage. Researchers set out to see how exercise habits relate to three spec
Glioblastoma is the toughest brain cancer to treat. It spreads fast and resists most therapies. Scientists now think tiny calcium channels inside cells could be part of the problem. These channels, called Cav3, act like tiny gates that let calcium enter. When calcium floods in, it can speed up cell
Kids with ADHD don’t all think the same way. Some struggle more with focus, others with sitting still. But a closer look at brain waves shows a hidden difference. Scientists tracked how children’s brains reacted during tasks that needed attention. They found that the timing of brain signals changes
A fresh start can feel exciting. Think about what you want to keep or change in your daily routine. If something isn’t working, let it go and try a new habit instead. Take care of your body first. Eating balanced meals, moving regularly, and getting enough sleep are simple steps that build
Understanding major depressive disorder (MDD) means looking at more than just mood swings. Brain scans show that people with MDD often have trouble with how different brain areas work together. Researchers studied 255 people with MDD alongside 255 healthy individuals to see if certain brain regions
Doctors have long struggled to treat Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, a tough-to-handle epilepsy that starts in childhood. Many patients deal with constant seizures that don’t go away even with strong medications. Recent research took a close look at two markers in the blood—neurofilament light chain and ca
