Researchers measured acetylcholine production in participants' brains at the beginning and end of the 10-week trial.

Research finds handwriting activates key brain regions for memory and learning, suggesting schools should balance traditional and digital practices. Study: Handwriting but not typewriting leads to ...

This project examines the effects exposure to inhaled nicotine, THC, or the combination in utero may have on behavior, brain function, and neurochemistry in adolescence and adulthood. Using a rat ...

Experiential education has long been a part of Purdue University, shaping how students learn through hands-on experiences such as internships, service-learning and research. Yet, for much of the ...

Our project aims to apply neurostimulation to improve motor function in people with neurological conditions. We will assess neurophysiological changes as well as functional changes after the ...

A new study offers insight into the health and lifestyle indicators - including diet, physical activity and weight - that align most closely with healthy brain function across the lifespan. The study ...

CyberSwarm is developing a neuromorphic computing engine that mimics brain function using memristor-based artificial synapses. The technology enables real-time learning, ultra-low power AI, and ...

Our brains may work best when teetering on the edge of chaos. A new theory suggests that criticality a sweet spot between order and randomness is the secret to learning, memory, and adaptability. When ...

Purdue University’s College of Engineering is at the forefront of innovative educational tools with its virtual wind tunnel project. The initiative, developed by faculty from the Schools of ...
