Consequently, it has not been fully clarified how exercise affects brain activity during cognitive tasks. In this study, the research group took advantage of the state-of-the-art neuroimaging facility ...

A new study suggests a single exercise session can increase electrical “ripples” in parts of the brain that support memory and learning ability. The research recorded electrical activity directly from ...

Repeated physical activity builds endurance by triggering widespread adaptations throughout the human body, but a new study ...

The connection between physical movement and brain function has emerged as one of neuroscience’s most significant discoveries. The human brain, despite representing only 2% of body weight, consumes ...

A recent review of exercise research looked at how different forms of exercise affect the brain across the lifespan. The ...

A new study suggests exercise could help people with Parkinson's disease maintain both movement and cognitive skills, slowing ...

Getting better sleep might be as simple as moving a little more every day. Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin ...

Researchers headed by a team at the University of Pennsylvania have found that exercise does more than strengthen muscles, it also rewires the brain. Studying mice, the investigators discovered that ...

Caring for your brain is a lifelong journey—and new research from the AdventHealth Research Institute offers hopeful news. A simple, steady exercise routine may help your brain stay biologically ...

You know exercise is good for you, but your brain still resists it like it’s punishment rather than reward. The problem isn’t willpower or discipline – it’s that your neural pathways haven’t learned ...

Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal that the lasting gain in endurance from repeated exercise—such as the ability ...

It’s no secret exercise is good for your body—but what about your brain? Linda Overstreet-Wadiche, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Neurobiology and vice chair for Faculty Affairs and Development ...
