A major international study has uncovered a new biological clue that could help predict dementia long before memory problems arise. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University ...

Yawning can help the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and venous blood flow, suggesting a regulation of neurofluids and increase ...

Researchers have discovered, in rodents, that fluid that circulates through the brain flows to areas critical for normal brain development and function, suggesting that disruptions to its circulation ...

Sleep is often described as the body’s recovery period, but for the brain, it is more like a nightly cleaning cycle. During deep rest, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulates through brain tissue, ...
