The secrets of human brain evolution are beginning to be unveiled thanks to a recent study. Researchers have explored key ...

A new study finds that microplastics and nanoplastics accumulate at higher levels in the brain than in the liver and kidney.

For more than 7 million years, the human brain has been growing bigger with each passing generation, almost tripling in size in fact. But in the last 10,000 years, it has been shrinking ...

What makes the human brain unique? A Yale study unlocks new insights into genetic changes that shaped our evolution.

For reference, the average adult human brain weighs about 3 pounds ... "That's roughly the size of two COVID viruses side by side," said Campen. A human hair is approximately 80,000 to 100,000 ...

The Noonan lab at Yale University is focused on understanding how HARs contribute to the evolution of uniquely human brain features.

Microplastics are tiny pieces of plastic — less than five millimeters in size, or smaller than a pencil ... and nanoplastics are indeed in the human brain,” Stapleton said.

"I have yet to encounter a single human being who says, 'There's a bunch of plastic in my brain and I'm totally cool with that'," said one researcher.

New research from the RIKEN Center for Brain Science (CBS), published in Communications Psychology on December 23, challenges conventional wisdom that larger group size reduces cooperation by ...

New study shows plastic accumulates in the brain, as well as other body parts. Scientists don't know what impact it has if ...
