Scientists study dragonflies to improve missile defense systems
Scientists are testing whether studying dragonflies can help improve the computing programs that run missile defense systems. These researchers from the Sandia National Laboratories believe that replicating the brain of a dragonfly in a computer algorithm can make missiles more effective. Dragonflies are some of the best fliers and hunters on the planet, able to catch around 95 percent […]

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 […]

Neuroscientists construct 3D facial models using data from a person’s brain when remembering the face of someone familiar
The code that our brains use to tell faces apart has been reverse engineered. This is because, for the first time, neuroscientists were able to construct 3D facial models using information stored in an individual’s brain when recalling faces of familiar people. The study, published in the Nature Human Behaviour journal, came about as a […]

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 […]

Scientists explain how the brain’s “inner pickpocket” identifies objects
How do skilled pickpockets figure out an object with just the slightest touch? A study from the University of Cambridge and Columbia University revealed that the brain can identify an object’s properties using purely statistical information. In sum, everyone has an “inner pickpocket” lurking inside them. This interesting finding not only explains why this form of thievery […]

Men and women are different, even when drunk: Research says men’s brains are more affected than women
Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol is not conducive to health, but it affects men differently than women. A recent study showed that the brain regions associated with emotions, memory, and social behavior displayed diminished activity in alcoholic men than in their female counterparts. Researchers reported that alcoholism impaired the function of the amygdala, hippocampus, and other limbic […]

The brain adapts to survive: How do people with poor eyesight develop better hearing?
Scientific studies and anecdotal evidence suggests that people who are born blind or become blind early in life often develop a sharper sense of hearing. For decades, scientists have wondered what changes happen in the brain that contributes to superior hearing in the blind. Now, a recent study has managed to pinpoint what exactly makes this […]

The bigger the waistline, the smaller the brain? Shocking new research links obesity to less gray matter
Excess body fat is a sign that more serious health issues are en route. Several studies show that obesity is a precursor to diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and cancer. Now, a shocking new study links obesity to less gray matter. As the brain shrinks, a person becomes at greater risk for serious conditions such as […]

Studies determine link between air pollution and increased autism risk
Today’s air isn’t as clean as it used to be thousands of years ago. It is now filled with pollutants from various sources like power plants, factories, and vehicles. Exposure to these air pollutants harms the health, both physical and mental, and studies have found a link between air pollution and children’s risk of autism […]
