Human neurons have also been implanted into adult rats before,but an animal's brain stops developing at a certain age,limiting how well implanted cells can integrate. "By transplanting them at these early stages,we found that these organoids can grow relatively large and receiv...
Menopause can affect your brain. Perimenopause may include a variety of thinking (cognitive) and/or emotional symptoms, including fatigue, memory problems, irritability, and rapid changes in mood. It is difficult to determine exactly which behavioral symptoms are due directly to the hormonal changes ...
My nine-year-old brain had not understood the fact that a valuable 55 is worth achieving, however difficult to get there. Recognizing that, I was 56 nothing would keep me from completing the test. In fact, I did it rather 57 on my next attempt. Seeing me 58 the test, almost all ...

"Normal brain aging predisposes vulnerable neurons to degeneration and is associated with cognitive decline and increased likelihood of developing a neurodegenerative disorder. The prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia in the elderly, is expected to double approximatel...
Because your brain is still developing until around the age of 25, young adults in their 20s should be aiming for 7-9 hours of sleep a night – slightly less than a teenager, but more than an older adult. At this age, busy social lives, studying and job commitments are all vying fo...
