Researchers used AI and deep learning to find a link between brain structure and navigation skills but found no measurable ...

Examining brain plasticity and its implications for development, aging, and brain injury recovery.

While the research does not point to a direct, causal link, it hints that activities like reading, writing and playing games ...

We often treat learning as something that can be accessed with enough motivation and discipline. But learning depends on something more basic: whether the nervous system is in a state that allows for ...

Astrocytes use the MEGF10 receptor to prune synapses in the striatum, a process essential for dopamine-driven motor learning.

Ellen Galinsky is president of the research nonprofit Families and Work Institute in Palisades, N.Y., served as co-lead of the AASA Summit, and is the author of The Breakthrough Years: A New ...

Steven Weisberg, a researcher at the University of Texas at Arlington, found that advanced artificial intelligence tools could not uncover a clear link between brain structure and navigation ability ...

A Dartmouth study challenges the conventional view that the amygdala-the two-sided structure deep in the brain involved in emotion, learning, and decision making-is simply the brain's primitive "fear ...

Companies that struggle with learning uptake despite professed desire for it have an infrastructure problem, one expert said.

While the findings point to limits in what AI can currently reveal about everyday cognitive skills, the technology remains a powerful research tool. Weisberg said more robust models could detect ...
