          Brain Scan Predicts Dementia Risk and Aging Speed in Midlife

          A new tool developed by researchers can estimate how fast someone is aging by analyzing a single MRI brain scan, predicting chronic disease risk and dementia years before symptoms appear. Unlike traditional “aging clocks,” this model was trained using longitudinal data from the same individuals, eliminating generational biases.

          Eureka Moments Double Memory by Rewiring the Brain

          New brain imaging research reveals that sudden “aha!” moments not only feel satisfying but actually restructure how the brain stores information, enhancing long-term memory. Participants solving visual puzzles were more likely to recall solutions that came to them in a flash of insight than those they reached methodically.

          New 3D Atlas Offers Unmatched Precision in Mapping the Mouse Brain

          Researchers have unveiled the Duke Mouse Brain Atlas, a cutting-edge, three-dimensional map that captures brain structures from large regions down to individual cells. Combining MRI, microCT, and light sheet microscopy, the atlas resolves imaging distortions and enables precise comparison across studies.

          How Oxytocin Tames “Mean Girl” Behavior

          A new study finds that in some lemur species, evolving gender equality is linked to changes in the brain’s oxytocin system. Researchers compared seven closely related species, finding that more egalitarian species had higher numbers of oxytocin receptors, particularly in the amygdala.

          Immune System Gene Linked to Hyperactivity, ADHD and Autism

          Researchers have uncovered a link between the immune gene regulator STAT1 and hyperactive behaviors in mice, offering new insights into neurodevelopmental disorders like autism and ADHD. STAT1, vital for infection response, also influences brain cell activity, particularly dopamine neurons involved in motivation and learning. In mice with prolonged STAT1 signaling, hyperactivity and reduced neural activity in key brain regions were observed. The study opens the door to targeting STAT1 for potential therapies to address neurobehavioral disorders.

          Stimulating the Vagus Nerve to Tackle Gut Inflammation in IBD

          Researchers have discovered that vagus nerve stimulation may reduce gut inflammation and improve outcomes for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The study reveals how electrical stimulation of this brain-gut nerve impacts SUMOylation, a cellular process driving immune responses, to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.

          “Sleeping on It” Helps With Rational Decision Making

          A new study reveals that while snap judgments heavily influence decisions made immediately, "sleeping on it" helps people make more rational choices. Researchers found that participants who made instant decisions about valuable items overestimated their worth based on first impressions.

          Genetic Factors Linked to Rare ALS Recovery

          A new study reveals that certain genetic factors may protect against ALS, enabling partial or full recovery. Researchers found that a specific genetic variation reduces a protein blocking the IGF-1 pathway, which is crucial for motor neuron protection. This discovery provides a potential new approach for ALS treatment. The findings highlight the importance of further studying the IGF-1 pathway in ALS therapy.

          New research uncovered a significant association between posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and a reduction in cerebellar volume. This study, one of the largest of its kind, demonstrates that individuals with PTSD have cerebellums that are approximately 2% smaller than those without the disorder.

          Researchers discovered that brittle stars, brainless marine creatures, can learn through experience, a finding that challenges our understanding of learning and intelligence. The study revealed that brittle stars, relatives of starfish, could learn to associate darkness with feeding times through classical conditioning, similar to Pavlov's dogs.
