How does body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) affect daily functioning and quality of life? Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) can significantly impair daily functioning and quality of life by causing distress, preoccupation with perceived flaws, and avoidance of social interactions or activities that exacerbate ...
But how does it make you smart? Scientists haven't figured out exactly how all the gray matter in your brain works, but they do have an idea of which part lets you think. The cerebral cortex, which is the outermost part of your brain, is where thought and reasoning happen. These are...
Ultrasonic mind control is a science very much in its infancy. With enough research, we might one day live in an age where police use ultrasound to incapacitate you at a protest, while physicians optimize human brain efficiency with a little ultrasonic fine-tuning. Explore the links on the ne...
The cerebellum doesn’t have much volume, but it holds about 80% of the brain’s nerve cells. Those are cells that take information back and forth between different parts of your brain and nervous system. This “little brain” plays a major role in balance, posture, and muscle coordination...
Call your doctor right away if you have any of these. They may want to check for new lesions with an MRI. That’s a machine that takes pictures of your brain or spinal cord. It can be hard to tell the difference between a true relapse and a flare-up. That’s a worsening of old...
when weather allows. I stand up to type and write when I can, trying to make the most of my few “up” hours a day. Some of that time goes to the basics of living alone, like cooking or doing dishes or the like. Mostly, it’s a day of calculus: how much can I do before I...
This question has confused researchers. The way this condition affects each generation can vary. A mother may have a small curve, yet her daughter could have a much larger curve. Sometimes, the condition can even skip a generation altogether. ...
After carpal tunnel surgery, I later learned that my hand numbness was caused by herniated discs in my neck. Over 70% of patients receive an incorrect diagnosis for similar symptoms. Learn how to avoid the same mistake.
The brain patterns that emerge on an MRI(核磁共振) when people think about their future selves most resemble the brain patterns that arise when they think about strangers.This finding suggests that,in the mind's eye,our future selves look like other people.If you see f...
