read moreA new study the Montreal Neurological Institute says that DCC (a receptor for a crucial protein in the nervous system) plays a big role in regulating brain plasticity. When DCC is absent, there is memory loss similar to that...
read moreResearch out of Carnegie Mellon University’s Center for Cognitive Brain Imaging shows how the brain adapts to injury. When one area loses functionality, other areas activate. As one researcher said, “[This] gives us indications of how individuals can train...
