"In humans, who are mainly active during daylight hours, the capacity for learning and memory formation may peak during the twilight period approaching sunset. In other words, the best time to study or learn something new may be before bedtime."

Our brains do not react in a fixed, mechanical way like electronic circuits. Even if we see the same scene every day on our commute to work, what we feel—and whether it leaves a lasting impression—depends on our internal state at that moment. For example, your commute may be a blur if you're too...

Electronic Eye Implant Restores Reading Vision in AMD

For the first time, blind patients have regained reading vision through an artificial eye implant.

The PRIMA System—an ultra-thin microchip combined with AR glasses—restored the ability to read in 84% of people with severe vision loss from geographic atrophy caused by dry AMD.

The technology transforms infrared light into electrical signals that the brain interprets as sight.

The findings pave the way for the first approved treatment for advanced dry AMD, offering new independence and hope for those living in darkness.

Researchers analyzed brain scans from over 19,000 people and discovered that around age 44, the brain’s neural networks start to destabilize, peaking around 67 before plateauing in later life. This instability means different regions of the brain aren’t communicating as efficiently—a key factor in cognitive decline.

These two decades may be the most important
