But anyone who works with children with ADHD-or raises one-knows that symptoms can look very different from one child to another. A new brain imaging study now provides scientific evidence for this ...

A gray powder that looks like ash can become something closer to stone when hit with the right beam of light. Engineers have shown that simulated lunar soil can be melted and layered into solid shapes ...

“Our brains are very malleable,” lead researcher Erik Wing, a research associate at York University in Toronto, explained. Wait, what exactly is neuroplasticity? Neuroplasticity is basically the ...

Inspired by the Japanese art of kirigami, an MIT team has designed a technique that could transform flat panels into medical devices, habitats, and other objects without the use of tools. MIT ...

Being an expert birdwatcher is more than a hobby. It’s a pastime that may alter the structure and function of your brain. And these changes may enhance cognition even as you age, new research suggests ...

Expert birdwatchers have brain differences that may underlie their remarkable ability to identify unfamiliar birds and suggest that birdwatching can reshape the brain in much the same way as learning ...
