The claim that the brain, and particularly the frontal lobe, finishes developing at 25 is far less solid than social media ...

Neurodevelopment involves the brain's formation of systems responsible for learning, memory, social skills, and overall function. Critical neurodevelopmental processes such as neurogenesis, synaptic ...

A lot of brain development happens early in life, but researchers don't have a strong understanding of how a baby's brain ...

The human brain undergoes significant development during the final prenatal months and through the first year of life. And while scientists have begun to map the developmental trajectories of this ...

A team of researchers from the University of Aberdeen has uncovered, for the first time, how genes linked to autism and ...

In a new study, researchers discovered that the human brain has four pivotal periods when it goes through marked changes, sparking five "epochs" that last for years. The adolescent phase, for example, ...

Rather than thinking that adolescence ends at 18, groundbreaking brain research has shown that critical brain developmental ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny bubbles released by cells, acting as cargo vessels through which cells exchange signals and thus communicate. A paper has demonstrated that this form of cellular ...

If you remember your pre-teen and teenage years, you can probably recall the intense feelings of anxiety, embarrassment, mood swings, and the desperate need for your peer's approval. More than any ...

Before age 5, a baby's brain grows rapidly, undergoing a uniquely important moment in development. Yet, many don't understand just how critical it is for setting a person's foundation for thriving.

Researchers have built the first-ever molecular atlas of the human brain vasculature at single-cell resolution, spanning from early development to adulthood and through disease stages such as brain ...
