| | | Higher education associated with later onset of Alzheimer's-related accelerated cognitive decline Exercising the brain by learning and thinking is known to improve cognition. Now a new study by Stony Brook University researchers reveals that higher education is associated with later onset of Alzheimer's-related accelerated cognitive declines. | |

| | | Spatial configuration of the genome is not inherited, but set up during embryogenesis The architecture of the DNA-protein complexes that make up the genome in each cell nucleus regulates the course of early embryonic development. | |

| | | Applying Nanomechanics to Biology The role of mechanical cues in biology is an emerging area of study, as it is being increasingly observed that mechanical cues play critical roles in many biological processes, such as cell differentiation, cell signaling, signal transduction, apoptosis, and in several disease states. | |

| | | Rutgers-led study pinpoints key gene linked to impaired memory in Down syndrome Targeting a key gene before birth could someday help lead to a treatment for Down syndrome by reversing abnormal embryonic brain development and improving cognitive function after birth, according to a Rutgers-led study. It may also help scientists better understand the mechanisms in Alzheimer's disease. Down syndrome patients often develop early-onset Alzheimer's disease. | |
