Canadian Wildfires Are Affecting Millions – How Exposure To Wildfire Smoke Affects Your Brain
Growing research is looking at the effects wildfire smoke exposure has on the health of the brain and on cognition.
SARS-CoV-2 Fuses Brain Cells – A Cause of COVID Brain Fog?
Scientists have shown that SARS-CoV-2 can cause brain cells to literally fuse together, which in turn affects how they function. Could this be a cause of brain fog?
Why Some Individuals Can’t ‘See’ Anything When They Close Their Eyes
Aphantasia is a condition in which a person cannot see or imagine mental images. In other words, when they attempt to imagine or think about something they cannot create an internal mental image or picture. While rare, it provides an intriguing window …
Personalized Neuroscience: Are Human-Derived Brain Organoids The Answer?
Brain organoids are pin-sized three dimensional self-organizing structures composed of roughly 2.5 million neural cells. They are derived from and genetically distinct to an individual. And while many open questions remain, they could represent a uniqu…
‘Thinkers And Innovators’: How Pelin Wood Thorogood Is Pioneering Proof-As-A-Service For Clinical Trials

What Exactly Are All Those Electrical Impulses In Your Brain?
This article is the first in a series that will explore the neurophysiology of neurons in the brain: How they communicate, and how the brain as a result represents and processes information.
How ‘Dormant’ Cells In The Aging Brain Contribute To Cognitive Decline
Cellular senescence is a state where cells get stuck in a particular phase of their cell cycle, which can affect physiological function. In the brain this effect can block neuroregeneration. Clearing them may reverse certain aspects of cognitive declin…
