          “Meal Memory” Neurons Found to Curb Overeating

          Researchers have identified neurons in the hippocampus that store "meal memories," encoding both what and when food was consumed. These specialized memory traces, or meal engrams, form during pauses between bites, helping the brain log eating experiences.

          Type 2 Diabetes Linked to Brain Thinning

          A new study reveals that type 2 diabetes is associated with thinning of the brain’s cortex in older adults, particularly in regions responsible for memory and cognition. Using brain scans from a diverse population sample, researchers found that poor blood sugar control may contribute to this structural brain change.

          Pregnancy Health Shapes a Child’s Blood Pressure for Life

          Children born to mothers with obesity, gestational diabetes, or hypertensive pregnancy disorders have significantly higher blood pressure from early childhood through adolescence. These children also experience faster blood pressure increases between ages 2 and 18, highlighting the long-term cardiovascular impact of prenatal exposures.

          Brain’s Switching Mechanism Revealed: How We Rapidly Change Actions

          New research shows that switching between actions is not simply stopping and starting again, but a unique brain mechanism that suppresses the previous action to initiate a new one. Using computational models, behavioral tasks, and clinical data from Parkinson’s patients, researchers found that stopping and switching are distinct cognitive motor processes.

          Why Nostalgic Songs Spark the Brain’s Memory and Reward System

          Listening to nostalgic music activates key brain regions tied to memory and emotion, according to a new brain imaging study. Researchers found that songs linked to personal memories engage both the default mode network and the brain's reward circuitry.

          Gut Imbalances in Autism Linked to Brain and Behavior Changes

          New research reveals that gut imbalances in children with autism may influence brain activity and behavior by disrupting the production of key neurotransmitters like serotonin. Scientists found that changes in gut-derived metabolites are linked to differences in brain structure and function in children with autism.

          AI Model Predicts Brain Aging Speed to Detect Cognitive Decline Early

          A new AI model can measure how fast a person’s brain is aging using MRI scans, providing a powerful tool for detecting cognitive decline. Unlike previous methods, this model tracks brain aging over time, identifying regions most affected and correlating changes with cognitive function.

          New Biomarker Links Brain Waste Clearance to Vascular Dementia

          A new study has identified a biomarker, DTI-ALPS, which connects glymphatic system dysfunction to vascular dementia. By analyzing over 3,750 participants, researchers found that lower DTI-ALPS scores correlated with worse executive function, highlighting the glymphatic system's role in clearing brain waste.

          Mapping the Brain’s Response to Social Rejection

          A new study explores how the brain processes social acceptance and rejection, revealing how these experiences shape relationships and influence mental health. Using behavioral experiments and MRI imaging, researchers identified distinct brain regions activated during rewarding interactions and feelings of rejection. While acceptance triggers reward pathways, rejection activates areas tied to social value assessment, helping individuals gauge relational worth.
