The latest breakthroughs, innovations, and cool happenings at the cutting edge of the world of cognitive science. Updated daily.
The brain’s response to incoming sensory information can be influenced by variations in α-power. Previous studies have suggested that lower α-power before stimulus presentation can enhance perceptual performance. However, there are conflicting findings that challenge this idea. To better understand these mixed results, researchers conducted a study using a spatial temporal-order judgment task with auditory […]
Imagine a global treasure hunt where scientists from all over the world combine their knowledge and resources to unlock the secrets of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Just like data sharing accelerates scientific progress, these daring adventurers are pursuing approaches to federate data and overcome the challenges of complex biomarker data scattered across different organizations […]
Just like a well-used library helps keep a town’s elderly residents sharp, education can also have a positive effect on cognitive function as people age. In a recent study, researchers examined the connection between education, cognitive performance, and resting state functional connectivity (RSFC) in healthy older adults. They analyzed data from MRI scans of 197 […]
