For 25 years, Northwestern scientists have studied SuperAgers—individuals over 80 with memory like those decades younger. Their unique brain structures and resilience against Alzheimer’s offer hope for cognitive health in aging.
A groundbreaking study reveals that spiders might have ancient marine origins, based on a 500-million-year-old fossil that challenges our understanding of arachnid evolution. This discovery reshapes the narrative around how these creatures adapted from sea to land!
A groundbreaking study uncovers that spiders may have evolved from ancient marine creatures, challenging previous beliefs about their terrestrial origins. The discovery of a 500-million-year-old fossil sheds light on the arachnid lineage and their unique brain structures.
A groundbreaking study suggests that spiders and their relatives may have evolved in the ocean rather than on land. Researchers examined ancient fossils, revealing surprising similarities in brain structure that challenge long-held beliefs.
A groundbreaking study reveals how two morphogens, WNT and Sonic Hedgehog, act as traffic cops in early human brain development, influencing gene programs and highlighting individual variations. Discover the science behind your brain's formation!
