Exercise and the brain: something to chew on
Evidence is accumulating that exercise has profound benefits for brain function. Physical activity improves learning and memory in humans and animals. Moreover, an active lifestyle might prevent or delay loss of cognitive function with aging or neurodegenerative disease. Recent research indicates that the effects of exercise on the brain can be enhanced by concurrent consumption of natural prod...

متن کاملSomething Old, Something New
Infants face the paramount task of learning a language. Here, I review recent literature on two separate topics that suggest they use a combination of both evolutionarily old and new cognitive tools to face this task. Research on the principles that guide how humans and nonhuman animals group sequences of sounds has shown that we share with other species perceptual biases that we apply to lingu...
متن کاملSomething new to explore
Functional genomics in plants has been facilitated greatly by the use of plant viruses to carry segments of host genes that can then promote the silencing of the RNAs expressed from the corresponding host genes; a process called virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS). The silencing of genes in filamentous fungi is either technically more problematic or labor-intensive, especially if transgenic pla...
