Around the world, many teachers still believe longstanding—but long-debunked—myths about learning and cognition. A study published this month in the journal Trends in Neuroscience and Education finds ...
Learning a musical instrument later in life may help keep the brain younger for longer. In a four-year study, older adults ...
Teacher educator, independent researcher, and author Zaretta Hammond has a new book out, Rebuilding Students′ Learning Power: Teaching for Instructional Equity and Cognitive Justice, which builds on ...
We continue to treat early childhood as a prelude to “real education,” a waiting room before schooling begins. But science, ...
Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Tal Sharf holds up a specialized chip for recording electrical activity in brain organoids. Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven its incredible ...
Researchers at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute for Physiology, working in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University, have achieved an important breakthrough in brain research. The ...
A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Virginia Tech's Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC has for the first time identified specific patterns of brain chemical activity that predict ...
Researchers uncovered how estrogen subtly reshapes learning by strengthening dopamine reward signals in the brain. Rats learned faster when estrogen levels were high and struggled when the hormone’s ...
Every time you master a new recipe, remember a phone number, or finally figure out how to fold a fitted sheet, your brain is learning. But new research shows that the brain learns in a more complex ...
Our brains have an extraordinary ability to adapt and learn, a process known as neuroplasticity. From navigating a new city to mastering a new skill, neuroplasticity allows us to reshape our neural ...
Experts say the more we challenge our brains as we age, the more resilient it becomes—and “learning a new instrument is a full-brain workout.” After the age of 40, the average brain decreases 5 ...
