A University of Iowa-led research team has documented in humans that physical exercise sparks an increase in brain waves ...

A single exercise session increased electrical activity in a brain region tied to learning and memory, a first-of-its-kind study showed.

Researchers capture the first direct evidence in humans that a single 20-minute exercise session triggers memory-boosting brain ripples.

The human brain can be primed to learn more than three times faster, simply by flashing a light at its individual alpha brainwave frequency for 1.5 seconds, suggests a fascinating new neuroplasticity ...

Researchers at Google have developed a new AI paradigm aimed at solving one of the biggest limitations in today’s large language models: their inability to learn or update their knowledge after ...

Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their ...

The remarkable ability of cells in the brain to store and process information has fascinated scientists for centuries. To accomplish this feat, neurons must have mechanisms to generate both transient ...

“If you really want to understand the brain, you have to take the top off and look inside,” says Roger Nicoll, MD. But don’t flip your wig just yet -- Nicoll's UCSF research team is learning about the ...

The non-sugar, low-calorie sweetener aspartame — which is found in many sugar-free or "diet" foods and drinks — has been linked to potential problems with memory and learning, according to a study ...
