Researchers uses The Virtual Brain to show how regional acetylcholine receptor density shapes whole-brain activity and localized sleep waves.​ 

Early-life stress elevates the enzyme SETD7 in dopamine neurons, uncoiling DNA and creating a physical scar that heightens adult stress vulnerability.​ 

A new study demonstrates that human overconfidence persists because its decision-making costs make it a credible, peacock-like evolutionary signal of underlying ability.​ 

Peripheral blood-derived immune cells cross into the aging human brain and transform into functional microglia.​
