A painless, noninvasive brain stimulation technique can significantly improve how young adults learn math, my colleagues and I found in a recent study. In a paper in PLOS Biology, we describe how this ...

Far too many students enter math class expecting to fail. For them, math isn’t just a subject–it’s a source of anxiety that chips away at their confidence and makes them question their abilities. A ...

In what definitely wasn’t on our list of expectations for this year, researchers used a method called transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) may help the brain learn math faster. This method, ...

WASHINGTON -- Sometime in elementary school, you quit counting your fingers and just know the answer. Now scientists have put youngsters into brain scanners to find out why, and watched how the brain ...

A computer chip modeled after the human brain just solved the kind of math that keeps fighter jets from shaking apart in flight simulations and power grids from collapsing in planning models. In a ...

Using AI to analyze brain scans of students solving math problems, researchers offer the first-ever glimpse into the neural roots of math learning disabilities. Combining the powers of artificial ...
