Bilingualism makes the brain more efficient, especially when learned at a young age

MRI data from large sample shows increased whole-brain connectivity in people with a second language

Neuroplasticity is the brain鈥檚 ability to build connections within itself, adapting to the surrounding environment. The brain is most plastic in childhood, forming new pathways in reaction to stimuli such as language.

Recreating a hallmark of Parkinson's disease in human neurons

Scientists use stem cells to follow development of protein bodies characteristic of neurological disease

Lewy bodies are a hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other related neurological conditions. Understanding why and how they develop is critical to developing better treatments.
