Researchers used MRI to track how a woman’s brain changed before, during, and for two years after her pregnancy. Notable changes arose on an almost weekly basis during pregnancy, with a reduction in gray matter and rise in white matter over time. The findings are a step toward building a comprehensive pregnancy brain map, which could help shed light on health outcomes like postpartum depression. https://bit.ly/3N7zHWC #pregnancy #brain #BrainMap #postpartum #PostpartumDepression #women #research #science #NewScience #NIH

Researchers discovered a protein produced by hibernating ground squirrels that allows their eyes to rapidly clear cataracts formed during cold exposure. The eyes of rats and fish treated with this protein gained the ability to clear cataracts, suggesting a potential drug treatment strategy and a possible surgery-free approach for managing cataracts. https://bit.ly/4eKGr8x #protein #cataracts #eyes #treatment #CataractsManagement #research #science #NEI #NIH

Research supported by NIH unveiled the first complete map of the neural connections of the common fruit fly brain. The map provides a wiring diagram, known as a connectome (pictured below), and is the largest and most complete connectome of an adult animal ever created. This work offers critical information about how brains are wired and the signals that underlie healthy brain functions. Learn more: https://bit.ly/4eOvV03

Childhood obesity is a growing public health problem. Children living in neighborhoods with low access to grocery stores early in life, even before birth, were at increased risk for obesity later. The findings hint that improving early access to healthy foods might help to reduce the risk of childhood obesity. https://bit.ly/4gQfGkV #obesity #ChildhoodObesity #health #children #HealthyFoods #FoodAccess #research #NIH
