In Maryland, a district's decade of effort to train more than 4,000 educators on how the brain learns best—so they can apply cognitive science in their own classrooms—begins to pay off.

Now, scientists led by Friedhelm Hummel at EPFL have identified an important factor affecting an individual's responsiveness to atDCS. The team looked at how native learning abilities determine the ...

Evidence from the past 20 years indicates that the use of computers in classrooms has led to declines in students' academic and cognitive abilities.

A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Virginia Tech's Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC has for the first time identified specific patterns of brain chemical activity that predict ...

Peer-Reviewed Research Published in Nature Communications Confirms Lindamood-Bell's Seeing Stars(R) Program Improves Reading Skills and Strengthens Brain Circuitry in Children with Dyslexia SAN LUIS ...

Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Tal Sharf holds up a specialized chip for recording electrical activity in brain organoids. Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven its incredible ...

The team pinpointed the exact moment mice learned a new skill by observing the activity of individual neurons, confirming earlier work that suggested animals are fast learners that purposely test the ...

A landmark study published by scientists at the University of California San Diego is redefining science's understanding of the way learning takes place. The findings, published in the journal Nature ...

A study reveals that the effectiveness of brain stimulation on motor skills is determined by an individual's learning ability rather than age, highlighting the need for a more personalized approach to ...
