Compelling new research, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is suggesting neuronal activity in the hippocampus prior to the delivery of new information can enhance subsequent memory formation. The discovery points… Continue reading Discovery of brain’s “encoding mode” could enhance memory retention
Scientists from Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet have discovered a new mechanism to help illustrate the rapid antidepressant qualities of ketamine. The large study imaged patients with treatment-resistant depression and found ketamine’s therapeutic effec… Continue reading New discovery helps explain ketamine’s antidepressant qualities

Back in 2018 a team of Australian researchers presented a novel font called Sans Forgetica, with the claim that it helps enhance memory. A team of UK and New Zealand researchers put the font to the test, and in a newly published peer-reviewed article r… Continue reading Study finds “memory-boosting” font doesn’t improve recall
An impressively comprehensive new study from Stanford University has delivered the most thorough investigation into the human body’s molecular response to exercise ever conducted. The research chronicles in detail how a single session of aerobic exerci… Continue reading Stanford study raises prospect of blood test to measure aerobic fitness
New research from scientists at Yale University is offering novel insights into how our brains generate acute subjective feelings of stress. The imaging study illustrates exactly which neural network seems to activate sensations of stress, raising the … Continue reading Yale study discovers brain network responsible for feelings of stress
A milestone study published in the journal Nature Communications is offering the first demonstration of a direct causal relationship between the gut microbiome and a human neurovascular disease. Verifying prior animal studies, the research suggests a m… Continue reading Study finds hemorrhagic brain disease caused by gut bacteria metabolite
A large-scale phase 2b/3 trial testing the efficacy of a novel drug designed to prevent HIV infection has been cut short due to a combination of positive early data and disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The interim analysis of the drug sugge… Continue reading Bi-monthly injection prevents HIV infection, early trial data suggests
