The authors survey teenagers within the United States regarding the effect of social media use on sleep quality and attention span.

This study examined whether findings from laboratory studies of baseball cognition also apply during real games. Using 2024 MLB data from 30 players, researchers analyzed batting performance under different levels of feedback and anxiety.

The authors looked at the correlation between being able to speak more than one language (multilingualism) and visual imagery. They found multilingual individuals had higher visual imagery as measured by the VVIQ.

Here the authors hypothesized that reducing folliculin (FLCN) might affect p62 protein levels in the dorsal hippocampus of mice, given their potential functional connection and p62's role in neurodegenerative diseases. Their study, using western blots and a two-way ANOVA on young wild-type mice, found that p62 levels correlated with FLCN expression, but ultimately concluded there's no evidence of a functional connection between FLCN and p62 in this specific model.

The authors looked at how different factors related to practicing and playing chess would impact a player's rating.

The authors compare neuroimaging datasets to identify potential new biomarkers for earlier detection of Alzheimer's disease.

Although no comprehensive characterization of schizophrenia exists, there is a general consensus that patients have electrical dysfunction in the prefrontal cortex. The authors designed a novel piezoelectric silk-based implant and optimized electrical output through the addition of conductive materials zinc oxide (ZnO) and aluminum nitride (AlN). With further research and compatibility studies, this implant could rectify electrical misfiring in the infralimbic prefrontal cortex.

The authors looked at using computer vision to evaluate the degree of exotropia in individuals with strabismus.

The authors looked at the ability subjects to rotation a 4D cube and how the ability to practice cube rotation impact their ability to understand 4D space.

The authors looked at whether they could induce the formation of new neurons from astrocytes via the upregulation of a microRNA (miR-124a). They found that upregulation of miR-124a started transdifferentiation of neurons, but was not enough to lead to full conversion of astrocytes to neurons.
