The electrical signals rippling across the brain during and after physical activity offer a measurable window into how ...

The work reveals that the brain — in mice and, presumably, in humans — is actively involved in the development of endurance, the ability to get better at a physical activity with repeated practice, ...

Exercise may sharpen the mind by repairing the brain’s protective shield. Researchers found that physical activity prompts the liver to release an enzyme that removes a harmful protein causing the ...

Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal ...

Researchers identify brain neurons that become active after exercise and help determine how much endurance improves with repeated training.

Physical activity supports the same brain systems targeted in clinical treatment”— Dr. Stanford Owen GULFPORT, LA, ...

The activity of certain neurons may influence our endurance for exercise, and these could be targeted to help us run faster ...

The effects of exercise would not be nearly as powerful without the input of the brain, according to new research. A study on ...

It turns out we might be building up our brain when we exercise.” Betley is corresponding author of the researchers’ published paper in Neuron, titled “ Exercise-induced activation of ventromedial ...

How far you can run might be down to brain not brawn, study finds - Brain cells found to help body recover faster after exercise ...

A long-running study following thousands of older adults suggests that a relatively brief period of targeted brain training ...

It’s no secret exercise is good for your body—but what about your brain? Linda Overstreet-Wadiche, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Neurobiology and vice chair for Faculty Affairs and Development ...
