How Spaceflight Shifts Astronauts’ Brains Inside Their Skulls
New Insights into the Brain in Zero-G Space exploration continues to reveal surprising effects on the human body. A recent study sheds light on a little-known consequence of spaceflight: the brain shifting inside the skull. In microgravity, the brain’s position changes, influencing neural function and potentially long-term health. This discovery adds to the growing body…

Cognitive Training Can Elevate Brain Chemistry in Aging, NPR Reports
Groundbreaking Findings in Cognitive Training A recent NPR-backed study reports what researchers have long suspected but could only recently demonstrate with compelling evidence: targeted cognitive training can increase the levels of a brain chemical that tends to decrease as people grow older. Over a 10-week period, participants engaging in structured cognitive exercises showed measurable boosts…

Cognitive Training Boosts Brain Chemical That Declines with Age, Study Finds
Overview: A Glimpse into Brain Chemistry and aging For years researchers have warned that certain brain chemicals tend to wane as we get older, potentially impacting memory, attention, and overall cognitive vitality. A new 10-week study provides the most compelling human evidence to date that cognitive training can boost a key brain chemical that typically…

Prenatal Language Exposure: How Hearing a Foreign Language Shapes Baby Brain Networks
Background: language networks begin before birth A new study from researchers affiliated with the Université de Montréal, published in Communications Biology, provides compelling evidence that exposing a fetus to a foreign language for several weeks can influence how a newborn’s brain processes language. Funded in part by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of…

Regular Exercise Can Slow Parkinson’s Progression, New Study Finds
Why exercise matters for Parkinson’s disease A recent study underscores the central role of movement in managing Parkinson’s. Regular exercise can slow the progression of the condition and help people maintain independence longer. Beyond reducing tremors, movement supports better balance, mood, and cognitive function, offering a practical path for people living with Parkinson’s to influence…
