Coronavirus found to have the ability to infect brain cells, says research
SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, continues to baffle even the most knowledgeable infectious disease experts. To add to the confusion, researchers from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine now suggest that the virus can potentially be neurotrophic. In their recent report, which was published in the journal Altex, the team detailed how the Wuhan coronavirus can infect the human brain and […]

Immune cells ATTACK the aging brain and release a substance that hinders new nerve cell production, report scientists
One of the defining features of the brain that sets it apart from all other organs of the human body (except muscles) is that it is made up of cells that cannot regenerate. The nerve cells in the brain called neurons are terminally differentiated, meaning that, unlike skin cells or blood cells, they cannot reproduce. So […]

Amazing study reveals bees can connect symbols to numbers: Insects COMPUTE
Research has established that bees understand the concept of zero and are capable of doing basic math. Now, a recent research conducted by scientists from the RMIT University in Australia suggests that bees are also capable of being trained to connect symbols to numbers in order to receive food. This experiment used a carrot and stick reward system to […]

Innate intelligence: Scientists theorize that the origins of human technology occurred spontaneously
Much has been said about the intelligence of chimpanzees: they can be taught to “speak” in sign language, some have exhibited incredible creativity and artistry, and some have even been observed to grieve and mourn the deaths of friends and family. A recent research however, suggests that there may be more to their intelligence than what […]

Stunning science finding obliterates previous understanding of how the brain is structured; it’s NOT based on regions controlling body parts
The scientific community has long believed that the brain is organized by regions controlling specific organs and body parts. However, a recent study could shake this fundamental knowledge, stating that the brain might actually be organized by function and not merely by specific regions. As part of the study, a research team from the University College London […]

Brain’s connection to immune system discovered: New study identifies lymphatic vessels on the brain
“We literally watched people’s brains drain fluid into these vessels,” said Daniel S. Reich, senior investigator at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), as he was asked to explain the latest findings of his long-sought research. Dr. Reich and his team were understandably nervous but proud of their work as they published their new study, […]

Scientists confirm: GENIUS brain function can be spontaneously unleashed in humans without any apparent cause
Wouldn’t it be great if you could just wake up one morning and suddenly be a genius? Maybe you would like to be a violin virtuoso or have the ability to paint incredibly detailed pictures despite having no training in the arts and no natural gifts that you know of. If you think that could […]

More biological differences discovered: Pain originates differently in males than in females
According to the results of a study by researchers from The University of Texas at Dallas, at the cellular level, “pain begins differently for men and women.” The group of researchers, which included Dr. Ted Price, Dr. Salim Megat, and their colleagues in the Pain Neurobiology Research Group, has determined that handling receptors in the nervous system for […]

Researchers discover immune cells help clear damage, rebuild nerves after injury
While people usually identify immune cells in preventing bacteria, a team of scientists from the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine showed that these cells could do so much more than keeping you from getting sick. According to their study, immune cells called neutrophils assist in clearing nerve debris after sustaining an injury. Researchers […]

Eye contact synchronizes brainwaves; this is how babies learn to communicate
According to a recent study, eye contact between an infant and an adult helps their brainwaves “get in sync” which can also “support communication and learning.” Researchers at the University of Cambridge have revealed that “when a parent and infant interact, various aspects of their behavior can synchronize,” such as their gaze, emotions, and heart rate. However, not […]
