The frequent occurrence of a pattern in a network, however, is not strictly correlated with a biological function. Network topologies reflect evolutionary origins and therefore the selection of ...

Patterns of brain connectivity take us a step closer to understanding the key principles of cognition. The patterns created by neurons in the brain can be used to shine a light on how the brain ...

Neuroscientists have identified face-recognition areas based on what parts of the brain they link to. For more than a decade, neuroscientists have known that many of the cells in a brain region called ...

Over recent decades, an extensive body of evidence has emerged linking dietary practices with cognitive outcomes in older adults. Research indicates that adherence to healthy dietary patterns—such as ...

Diet plays an important role in cognitive health. A recent Nutrition study evaluated the association between long-term dietary patterns from youth to adulthood and cognitive function in midlife.

A nationwide, prospective cohort study was recently published by Salerno et al. 1 In this study involving 943 participants, the authors aim to investigate the association between physical activity (PA ...

For more than a decade, neuroscientists have known that many of the cells in a brain region called the fusiform gyrus specialise in recognising faces. However, those cells don't act alone: They need ...
