          Fatty Acids in Brain Key in Memory Formation

          Researchers made a breakthrough discovery on how saturated fatty acids in the brain contribute to memory consolidation. The team have mapped out the molecular processes and identified critical genes, such as PLA1 and STXBP1, that regulate the formation of these fatty acids during neuronal communication, offering new insights into potential treatments for neurodegenerative diseases.

          Omega Fatty Acids Improve Vision in Preterm Babies

          A novel study reveals that preterm babies given a supplement of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids show significantly better visual function by age two and a half. Conducted between 2016 and 2019, the study involved 178 extremely preterm babies, born before the 28th week of pregnancy.
