The brain may lose control over which genes get expressed as it ages.

A new single-cell atlas shows how epigenetic changes reshape brain cells during aging, revealing genomic instability, ...

A diet focused on the best foods for brain health slowed aging in key parts of the brain by over 2 years, a new study found.

Greater adherence to the MIND diet was consistently linked to slower brain atrophy over the 12-year follow-up period. Specifically, participants had a slower loss of grey matter, the part of the brain ...

A landmark research paper for the first time maps the genetics of how individual regions of the brain age—and why some of ...

Several sleep EEG patterns that contribute to brain age are known to play roles in brain health and memory. These include ...

Bryan Johnson, the centimillionaire who has turned his own life into a data-driven experiment in living forever, looked ...

Researchers have defined a new genetic disease caused by a mutation in the IVNS1ABP gene. The condition marks a rare ...

Specific EEG features tied to brain age are already known to support memory and overall brain function. These include delta ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...

The MIND diet is a combination of the Mediterranean diet and the DASH diet, both known for their health benefits, but it is specially designed to protect brain function. Brain aging is the natural, ...

In a lab study, a combo of anti-aging drugs appeared to cause a profound loss of the protective coating myelin, which is a ...
