Artificial neural networks modeled on human brain connectivity can effectively perform complex cognitive tasks.
Functional connectivity was reduced within and between several brain networks in children raised in disadvantaged neighborhoods. Researchers say a positive home and school environment can mitigate some of the effects.
Fenofibrate, a drug developed to control cholesterol, alleviated brain and behavioral abnormalities in mouse models of schizophrenia.
