A new study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis suggests that growing up in poverty may influence the wiring of a child's brain.
A study by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis reveals that household and community poverty may influence brain health in children. Childhood obesity and lower cognitive function may explain, at least partially, poverty’s influence on the brain.
Stronger links between brain measures and traits can be obtained when state-of-the-art pattern recognition (or machine learning) algorithms are utilized,.
Since the development of functional magnetic resonance imaging in the 1990s, the reliance on neuroimaging has skyrocketed as researchers investigate how fMRI data from the brain at rest, and anatomical brain structure itself, can be used to predict individual traits, such as depression, cognitive decline, and brain disorders.
Researchers armed with super-high-tech brain scanners and artificial intelligence programs can read the neurons responsible for vision. The MRI can recreate an image a person sees.
