Brain development and IQ

Article Abstract:

An investigation was carried out to determine the relationship between intelligence and physical dimensions of the brain by measuring the thickness of the cortex (outer layer of the brain). The findings speculate that differences in the shape of the growth curves of cortical thickness could be influenced by various factors such as number of neurons that collect in the subplate under the cortex during fetal development.

Bright blue times

Article Abstract:

The ability of our body to adjust to the day and night timing depends on the unique set of light sensitive neurons present in the eyes. Various studies conducted on this topic indicate that melanospin pigment permits the cells to react to light.
