Running to catch the bus? The brain is wired for the rapid calculus needed to bring you to a halt right at the doors before they close, a new Sur Lab study in Cell Reports suggests. picower.mit.edu/news/sprint-th… #neuroscience MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences MIT Science

The brain uses basic calculus to quickly halt fast movements — a surprisingly clever way to control behaviors that need to be more precise than the commands from the brain can be. Kevin Hartnett reports: quantamagazine.org/the-brain-uses…

Today's FDA approval of #Trofinetide could bring new, much needed hope to many with #Rettsyndrome and their families. In 2009 Sur Lab made the first preclinical showing that IGF-1 could have therapeutic potential. picower.mit.edu/news/3-questio… @mit @mitscience MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences
