Is Intelligence Genetic? Scientists Discover Heritable Brain State That Powers Cognitive Flexibility
Brain dynamics and cognition share genetic roots. Criticality may guide future brain health research. A recent study published on June 24 in PNAS presents strong evidence that brain criticality—the delicate balance between neural excitation and inhibition—is heavily influenced by genetic factors and closely linked to cognitive abilities. The research, led by Prof. Ning Liu of [...]
