          Can AI Truly Grasp Colorful Metaphors Without Seeing Color?

          A new study tested how humans and ChatGPT understand color metaphors, revealing key differences between lived experience and language-based AI. Surprisingly, colorblind and color-seeing humans showed similar comprehension, suggesting vision isn’t essential for interpreting metaphors.

          Perception or Reality? Rethinking How Polarized We Really Are

          A new study challenges the notion that society is as polarized as many believe, revealing that perceptions of division often stem from the consensus within one’s own social circles. Researchers developed a novel method to distinguish actual opinion divergence from how polarized people feel society is.

          Artificial Light Undermines Health: Aligning Modern Life With Biological Clocks

          New research reveals that artificial light at night disrupts more than sleep, affecting immune function, metabolism, mood, and brain health. Circadian rhythms, finely tuned over millions of years, regulate critical biological processes and can be thrown off by modern lighting and irregular schedules.

          Astrocytes Take the Lead: Hidden Stars of Brain Rhythms Revealed

          New research highlights how astrocytes, long considered mere support cells, actively shape brain network dynamics. Using computational models and machine learning, researchers showed astrocytes fine-tune synchronized neural activity crucial for memory, attention, and sleep.

          Mental Health Benefits of Exercise Depend on Context

          A new study reveals that the mental health benefits of exercise depend not just on the amount of physical activity, but also on the context in which it occurs. Researchers found that leisure-time activities like yoga or team sports tend to improve mood more than obligatory tasks like housework.

          Later-Born Neurons Mature Faster to Keep Networks in Balance

          The brain depends on a delicate balance between excitatory and inhibitory neurons to function properly. A new study reveals that inhibitory neurons born later in development mature more quickly than earlier ones, allowing them to catch up and integrate evenly into neural networks.

          A new study shows matching your personality to the type of exercise you enjoy may help you stick with it and reduce stress. Researchers found extroverts preferred high-intensity workouts, while people high in neuroticism favored short bursts of activity and saw greater stress reduction from exercise.

          The Brain Weaves Time Into Memories With Unique Neural Bookmarks

          Our brain doesn’t just record time—it organizes our lives into distinct, memorable moments. New research reveals that neurons in the lateral entorhinal cortex generate unique “jumps” in activity when something meaningful happens, creating bookmarks that structure our experiences.

          Masks Don’t Muffle Word Learning: Toddlers Learn Without Seeing Mouths

          Toddlers as young as two can successfully learn new words even when a speaker’s mouth or eyes are covered, a study shows. Researchers found that children’s ability to follow the speaker’s gaze and link words to objects drives vocabulary learning, not reliance on seeing mouth movements.

          One Neuron, Two Behaviors

          New research shows a single neuron in fruit flies can trigger two distinct behaviors in response to the same smell. When detecting rotting fruit, one downstream pathway drives the flies toward the source, while another pathway controls their walking speed.

          Why Your Baby Cries: It’s Largely Written in Their Genes

          A new twin study reveals that how much an infant cries is strongly influenced by genetics, leaving parents with limited control over this behavior. Researchers found that at two months, genetics accounted for around 50% of crying duration, rising to 70% by five months.
