Long Covid And Alzheimer's Might Be Driven By Similar Changes In The Brain, Says New Study
A new study from New York University finds that long Covid and Alzheimer's may share biological pathways, with choroid plexus changes linked to brain inflammation, waste clearance issues, and cognitive decline.

Targeting Brain Network May Make Parkinson's Treatment More Effective: Study
A study has suggested that treatments for Parkinson's disease could potentially be doubly efficacious by targeting a brain network linking cognition and action, rather than brain regions responsible for movements.

NASA’s Artemis II Astronauts Will Double as Test Subjects for Deep Space Health Research
NASA’s Artemis II mission will send astronauts beyond low Earth orbit as both scientists and volunteer test subjects. The crew will conduct health, radiation, and lunar studies, providing vital data to protect future explorers. Results will guide safety protocols for lunar and Mars missions, advancing human readiness for long-duration deep space ...

What Happens in Your Brain When You Read? New Study Maps the Reading Mind
A new brain study reveals how we process language when reading silently or aloud. It uncovers distinct neural responses for letters, words, and pseudo-words, offering groundbreaking insight into how the brain manages language—and paving the way for improved approaches to reading disorders like dyslexia.

Cats Associate More with Words Compared to Human Babies, New Study Reveals
New research shows cats have the ability to link words and images faster than toddlers, suggesting a surprising cognitive ability in felines. Conducted at Azabu University in Japan, the study used visual cues to reveal that cats could recognise altered word-image pairings, showing signs of confusion and attention to detail. The findings, published ...

"Sure. Challenge Him To...": Harris On Trump's Cognitive Test Remark
Kamala Harris said Monday she would take a cognitive test in response to jabs from Donald Trump, and challenged the ex-president to take one too as mental fitness becomes a battle line in the White House race.

New Study Reveals the Brain Stores Multiple Copies of Every Memory
Recent research sheds new light on how the brain stores and manages memories, revealing that it maintains at least three distinct copies of each memory. This study, conducted on rodents, provides valuable insights into the brain's memory encoding process and suggests that multiple types of neurons play a role in storing these memories. The research...
