Study suggests human brain development has four pivotal ‘turning points’ at around the ages of nine, 32, 66 and 83 Scientists have identified five major “epochs” of human brain development in one of ...

Given the complexity of the process, it’s astonishing any human has ever mastered the ability to read. Although written language is ancient — we’ve been at it for roughly 5,000 years — it’s not an ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain goes through five major phases of development from infancy to old age. In one of the largest studies of its kind, researchers analysed brain scans from ...

We have long believed that brain growth stops and aging begins once we pass the age of 20. However, a study by British university researchers analyzing brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data has ...
