This shows a baby and a brain.A new study highlights how brain age models can track healthy infant development and reveal environmental influences. Using MRI data from over 600 term and preterm infants, researchers trained machine learning models to predict brain age and identify gaps between predicted and actual ages.

This shows a brain.Human number cognition may be rooted in the putamen, a deep brain structure traditionally associated with movement rather than abstract thought. Neurosurgery patients demonstrated activity in this area while processing numbers as symbols, words, and concepts, suggesting that numerical understanding emerged early in evolution.

This shows a collage of people, like a music album cover.A new study challenges the notion of the musicians' "sophomore slump," finding it exists only in professional critics' reviews, not fan ratings. Critics tend to harshly critique bands’ second albums compared to their first and third, likely influenced by social conformity within their group.

This shows an older man running.New research shows that skeletal muscle loss, measured through temporalis muscle size on brain MRIs, is associated with a higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. A study of 621 older adults found that those with smaller temporalis muscles were 60% more likely to develop dementia and experienced greater cognitive and brain volume decline over nearly six years.
