From Geometry to Hierarchy: Charting the Dominant Modes of Human Cortical Function Through Development

Cortical function in the human cortex is spatially patterned along a macroscale information processing hierarchy. This hierarchy tracks a sensory-association axis anchored at one end by unimodal sensory regions and at the other by transmodal association areas. Biophysical models of brain dynamics suggest that this axis should align with the dominant, resonant modes of cortical anatomy and…

Scientists discover a hidden switch that shuts down inflammation

Scientists have uncovered a natural braking system that helps the immune system switch off inflammation and prevent harmful immune cells from building up. Boosting this pathway in people reduced inflammation-related immune changes and sped up pain relief, pointing toward potential new treatments for chronic inflammatory diseases.
