AI Links Brain Rhythms to Physical “Wiring” Across Lifespan

A study of 1,965 people aged 5–100 reveals that brain wave speed is dictated by the brain's physical wiring. The new Xi–αNET model shows that slowing alpha waves are a direct marker of declining white matter in aging.

Depression and Gut Issues Linked to Future PSP

A new study identified five key risk factors for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), including depression 10 years pre-diagnosis. The findings suggest the disease develops silently for a decade before motor symptoms appear.

How Blood-Brain Barrier Failure Drives CTE in Athletes

A new study identifies a leaky blood-brain barrier as the "missing link" between repetitive head impacts and dementia in retired athletes. Researchers found that this persistent leakage triggers a toxic buildup of proteins, offering a new target for early diagnosis and treatment.
