Your brain activity predicts whether you will make a risky decision

This is what Sarah M. Helfinstein and her collaborators point out in an article recently published in 'PANAS'. It is known that there are certain areas of the brain that are related to risk processing when we decide. What these researchers are examining for the first time is whether the activity of those brain regions can somehow predict the kind of choice we will make: risky or safe. To do this, they performed functional magnetic resonance imaging on a group of healthy people while they performed a task in which they had to make decisions.

They discover why cancer and Alzheimer's are incompatible

This is how dogs know how we feel

When we know someone well, just by listening to their voice we can tell if they are okay or if something is wrong.

According to a study by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and published in the journal Current Biology, a similar process occurs in dogs.

The human eye works like a digital camera

A brain switch regulates our behavior

Our brain has a kind of switch that regulates our behavior in the face of sensory information that comes to us from our environment. This is demonstrated by the latest study by a team of scientists from NERF (Neuro Electronics Research Flanders) and VIB (Flanders Institute for Biotechnology).

Why do we remember dreams?

Action video games help people with dyslexia

Between 5 and 10% of the population suffers from dyslexia, the reading disorder that prevents a correct understanding of the text and the sensory signals that surround them. Now, a team of researchers from the University of Oxford has produced a study in which it is stated that action video games are capable of improving the reading (dyslexia) and writing (dysgraphia) abilities of people suffering from these disorders. The study has been published in the journal Current Biology.
