"Neurons fire much more erratically than researchers thought. What does that mean for how the brain works?" https://t.co/ak6DeuRoJ7

42% of people who read a book in bed before sleep reported better sleep vs. 28% who didn't read.

Can medication treatment improve real-life outcomes--not merely reduce symptoms--in adults with ADHD? https://t.co/7Q0ppQAtXj

The point of medical AI is not replacing presence. It is removing the paperwork and latency that destroy presence. Better intake, documentation, follow up and escalation should give doctors more time with patients, not less. https://t.co/E0QDZ2QO49

Ran an experiment on who actually gets smarter working with AI. It wasn't the cleverest people. It wasn't even the most technically fluent. My @WSJ piece today on what it was instead: https://t.co/qRHKDt27LF

I had 2 separate articles go #1: one @CNBC and one @FastCompany

But many readers didn’t seem to know, both were excerpts from different chapters in my new book 𝑹𝒐𝒃𝒐𝒕-𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒇: “When Machines Have All The Answers, Build Better People.”

[Vivienne Ming @neuraltheory]

@CNBC @FastCompany I’m thrilled you loved the articles—go read the book!

Exercise is good for the brain. But why?

This morning in The Science and Experience of Energy we explore the effects of exercise on brain mitochondrial. And why making more mitochondria might in part be why moving keeps our brain healthy.
