Imagine the human brain as a vast network of interconnected roads, where information travels from one region to another. Scientists have discovered a way to measure the changes that occur in this complex network as we age. By using geometry-inspired mathematical concepts called Forman-Ricci curvature and Ollivier-Ricci curvature, researchers applied these tools to functional connectivity […]
Imagine you’re at the gym, working out your muscles to make them stronger. Now imagine doing the same thing, but for your brain! Researchers have come up with a way to combine two powerful technologies – virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI) – to help people with mild neurocognitive impairment. In a recent study, […]
Imagine you’re driving a car and suddenly your dashboard lights up, warning you that your gas tank is running dangerously low. Just like that, scientists have discovered a marker in the blood that can serve as an early warning sign for respiratory failure in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this study, researchers looked […]
