Brain region boosts avoidance of unpleasantness and pain - in mice

A brainstem neural circuit amplifies the response to pain and withdrawal from opioids, impacting addiction treatment strategies.

Exercise, Alcohol, and Drugs Can All Dramatically Rewire The Brain, Research Shows

Addiction is not a result of low willpower, but rather has a strong neurobiological and genetic basis.
Alcohol and drugs can affect gene activity in the brain, leading to changes in protein production and behavior.

Human brain is superior and more efficient than AI, scientists say

The human brain learns information in a fundamentally different and more efficient way than AI.
Humans can learn something after seeing it once, while AI needs to be trained hundreds of times on the same information.

How alcohol affects your body as you age: resilience in your 20s to 'ill, slow the next day' in your 60s

Moderate drinking depends on age, as the liver and brain are more resilient in youth.
Drinking in moderation can still be neurotoxic and harmful to the liver even if not consumed in excess.

#multiple sclerosis

Doctors encouraged by early-stage trial of MS stem cell therapy

Injecting stem cells into the brains of multiple sclerosis patients was found to be safe and potentially protective against further damage from the disease.
The therapy reduced inflammation and may have a long-lasting, beneficial impact on patients with secondary progressive MS.
Further research is needed to determine the full potential of this treatment for multiple sclerosis.

How to train your brain to achieve goals more effectively

Our brain's stories can control our actions and emotions.
We can retrain our brain to think in a more empowering way.
There are three types of storytellers in our mind: devious, flatterer, and reasonable.

Solving programming exercises

Outline your approach before starting to code to reduce stress and allow your brain to be more creative.
Take breaks and walk away from the exercise to let your brain work on the problem in the background.

The brain makes a lot of waste. Now scientists think they know where it goes

The brain has a waste-removal system that operates during sleep, involving fluid movement and absorption into the bloodstream, potentially impacting conditions like Alzheimer's disease.
