          Brain Stimulation Boosts Math Skills in Struggling Learners

          New research shows that safe, non-invasive brain stimulation can enhance math learning in young adults with lower natural brain connectivity. Participants who received transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) to the dlPFC performed better during math training than those who received placebo treatment or stimulation elsewhere.

          Sleep Learning: How Synapses Strengthen While We Rest

          New research reveals how synaptic connections in the cerebral cortex can strengthen during sleep, offering insight into how the brain continues learning even while we rest. Using computer simulations, researchers demonstrated that synaptic activity during sleep follows known "synaptic learning rules" when neural activity reaches specific thresholds.

          Why Baby Talk May Be Uniquely Human

          Child-directed speech, or “baby talk,” plays a crucial role in language development and is a near-universal human behavior. Researchers investigated whether this vocal strategy is shared with our closest relatives—great apes—and found that humans use infant-directed speech far more frequently.

          Babies Show Surprising Flexibility in How They Learn and Adapt

          New research reveals that babies as young as eight months can flexibly adapt their learning strategies to changing environments. Using eye-tracking and shifting patterns of visual stimuli, researchers observed that infants adjusted their behavior based on whether the monster on screen appeared in a predictable or unpredictable location.

          Why Children Learn Language Faster Than AI

          Despite AI’s massive processing power, children still far outperform machines in learning language—and a new framework helps explain why. Unlike AI systems that passively absorb text, children learn through multisensory exploration, social interaction, and self-driven curiosity.

          LEGO Lessons Boost Kids’ Math and Spatial Skills in 6 Weeks

          Incorporating LEGO-based activities into daily classroom instruction can significantly improve children’s math and spatial reasoning abilities, according to a new study. Researchers evaluated a six-week program called SPACE, where teachers guided structured LEGO-building sessions with students aged 6 to 7.

          Baby Talk Enhances Infant Speech Learning

          A new meta-analysis confirms that adults exaggerate vowel sounds when speaking to infants, a feature known as vowel hyperarticulation in infant-directed speech (IDS). By analyzing 55 studies across at least 10 languages, researchers found consistent evidence for this speech pattern, though its strength varied depending on language, method, and sample size.

          Brain Uses Separate Synapses to Balance Learning and Stability

          New research has overturned a long-held belief in neuroscience by showing that the brain uses separate synaptic transmission sites for spontaneous and evoked signaling. Traditionally thought to share the same origin, these two forms of communication actually emerge from distinct sites, each following its own developmental path.

          Inhibitory Neurons May Hold the Key to Spatial Learning and Memory

          A new study explores how the brain quickly learns and remembers important locations by focusing not on excitatory neurons, but on inhibitory ones called parvalbumin interneurons (PVs). These PVs act like circuit breakers, briefly reducing their activity to allow learning-related neurons to strengthen connections. Using optogenetics and virtual reality mazes in mice, researchers found that learning was blocked when PV inhibition didn’t decrease at the right time.

          Young zebra finches learn their birdsong by observing and imitating adult "tutor" birds, but they don’t follow just anyone. A new study shows that juvenile finches prefer tutors who sing longer but less often, suggesting social cues guide their choices.

          Recessive Genes May Quietly Shape Health, Learning, and Fertility

          Carriers of recessive gene mutations, long thought to be unaffected, may actually face subtle disadvantages, including more medical issues, shorter educational attainment, and reduced reproductive success. A study of over 300,000 individuals reveals that people who carry recessive genes for intellectual disability are especially impacted, despite having only one mutated gene copy.
