Abstract: Brain-controlled systems have experienced significant advancements in overall performance, largely driven by continuous optimization and innovation in electroencephalography (EEG) ...

Abstract: Accurate and automatic segmentation of lifespan brain MRI into regions of interest (ROIs) is crucial for studying brain development, aging, and early diagnosis of neurological diseases.

The findings may help explain why this group has such exceptional memory. By Dana G. Smith Many people’s brains deteriorate as they age, becoming riddled with malfunctioning proteins that result in ...

They found that young and old adults with healthy cognition generated neurons, a process called neurogenesis, at high levels for their age. The team estimated that the new neurons made up only a small ...

People who have razor-sharp minds in their 80s and 90s — known as “SuperAgers” — produce twice the number of young neurons as cognitively healthy adults and 2.5 times as many as people with ...

Past studies in animals have shown that a highly processed diet is linked to memory problems and inflammation in the aged brain—and the effect can happen fast, after just three days of poor eating. A ...

Summary: Researchers have demonstrated that memory decline and symptoms of Alzheimer’s may not be irreversible. By using “partial reprogramming” on specific groups of neurons called engrams—the cells ...

A simple brain-training program that sharpens how quickly older adults process visual information may have a surprisingly powerful long-term payoff. In a major 20-year study of adults 65 and older, ...
