Physical exercise is key for brain health and longevity, but when I say exercise, I don't just mean cardio! Bones + muscles release "exerkines" (like osteocalcin, VEGF, IGF-1) which support neuroplasticity & your brain's ability to make new brain cells through a process called neurogenesis

Attention isn’t something you either “have” or “don’t have” - it’s something your brain does, and it changes depending on whats happening in your body, your environment & your stress levels. This means you can influence it. Find out how! @utas.edu.au @scienceau.bsky.social @whofides.bsky.social

As a neuroscientist I’m genuinely worried about the impact of excessive AI use on the brain… especially young brains. It’s like getting a personal trainer to lift your weights for you. This is an excerpt from a chat I had with Jules Sebastian on #TeaWithJules #brainhealth #ai #neuroscience

In 2025, I was in the media discussing neuroscience weekly: from quirky brain facts to big health questions Because I didnt post them, if you missed them live, they vanished into the ether!🫠 I've started gathering some into a home on Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/2LJ5fxpjU0b8h…?

Two neurons connecting You might have seen this video before. I'm the neuroscientist who captured the footage moments before binning the petri dish. Lucky save! People repost it saying "this is memory! This is healing from emotional trauma!" ...it is not The reality is much cooler 1/n #firstpost
