It’s a nobrainer! And what it means for society

their patients were between four and 64 years old, they could see how transmission speed matured during early life and how it changed throughout adulthood.

e researchers performed these measurements within and between multiple brain regions in the frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes. eir results, published in the journal Nature Neuroscience, revealed variability be- tween the patients, but overall, the delays in conduction decreased throughout childhood and adolescence, continuing, in most of the patients they examined, well into adulthood.

One patient who was 35 years old had the highest transmission speed.

Long-range bres connecting distant brain regions showed the greatest increases in transmission speed,
