Cognition

Researchers have discovered an exercise ‘sweet spot’ that reverses the cognitive decline in ageing mice, paving the way for human studies in this area.

Ultrasound can overcome some of the detrimental effects of ageing and dementia without the need to cross the blood-brain barrier.

New research from QBI may explain how vitamin D deficiency leads to a range of cognitive disorders, including depression and schizophrenia.

Research from the University of Queensland has linked low levels of vitamin D and the size of a part of the brain crucial to memory formation.

Dr Baumann from UQ’s Queensland Brain Institute and colleagues have put to rest the notion that fMRI can detect the brain's place cells.
