Brain development does not end at 25 but continues into the early 30s as neural networks become more efficient and ...

Learn the new science of brain development and discover the importance of connections and learning for ongoing brain health.

There’s this idea that something happens in the human brain when we turn 25. Suddenly, we can rent a car without fees. Make ...

The brain has five major structural phases during the human lifespan and doesn't reach adulthood until age 32, a new study suggests. Scientists determined that brain development is defined by four ...

Previous research has found that the human brain reaches maturity sometime in the 20s, but a new study suggests that it never stops developing. Neuroscientists at the University of Cambridge have ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

A study suggesting that the human brain enters a stable phase around age 32 has people in their 20s feeling validated. University of Cambridge neuroscientists released their research results on ...

Given the complexity of the process, it’s astonishing any human has ever mastered the ability to read. Although written language is ancient — we’ve been at it for roughly 5,000 years — it’s not an ...

By editing thousands of genes in mouse stem cells, the scientists identified a list of over 300 that are crucial for neural differentiation.

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene ...
