In as little as two years of learning, music can change the structure of the brain's white matter and boost networks implicated in decision making in children, USC researchers report. Read More
According to researchers, our brains have different traits that affect both anatomical and cognitive factors. Read More
Researchers show the individual differences in how we process numbers have a structural basis in the brain. Read More
Gray matter volume in the dosolateral and ventromedial prefrontal cortex predicts whether you will choose a health food option or not, researchers report. Read More
A new study reports gray matter deficits in the caudate nucleus could mean that adolescents with ADHD may not grow out of the disorder. Read More
University of Basel researchers reveal the volume of the anterior insula, a brain area associated with emotion and empathy, is larger in boys who express higher levels of callous-unemotional traits. Read More
Selective breeding has altered brain anatomy in dogs. Neuroimaging of 33 dog breeds revealed brain structures varied across breeds, and the variations are associated with specific behaviors. Read More
Those with body dysmorphic disorder and anorexia have abnormalities in activity and connectivity in visual and parietal brain networks. People with anorexia and body dysmorphia process images with high, low, or normal levels of detail. The abnormalities for low level of detail have the most direct relationship with disorder symptom severity and body perception. Read More
Aerosolized coronavirus microdroplets remain in the air and pose a risk of exposure beyond the recommended 6-foot area for social distancing. Read More
The left and right brain areas are more similar in those with ASD. Reduced asymmetry was identified in cortical thickness across various brain regions in those on the autism spectrum. Read More
Study reports the ordered structure of brain areas is not only determined by neural connectivity, but also by the total number of neurons. Read More
Researchers report a genetic mutation that causes structural abnormalities in the adolescent brain may predict an increased risk of schizophrenia later in life. Read More
