Worse yet, the blandly passive-aggressive language Google's engineers are using to explain/defend this is redolent of the usual brain-dead corporate-speak you see elsewhere: Our Stupid Policy Must Be Defended, Because It's Policy, Don't You Understand?
Dave can be found safely ensconced away from the horrors and delights of the outside world on Twitter as @hullodave Or, check out the podcast Dean and Dave's Science Webnoise, with friend and usual Brain Flapping science blogger Dean Burnett.
Walking on a regular basis also promotes new connections between brain cells, staves off the usual withering of brain tissue that comes with age, increases the volume of the hippocampus (a brain region crucial for memory), and elevates levels of molecules that both stimulate the growth of new neurons and transmit messages between them.
Ms. Hornbacher brings to the discussion more than the usual pairing of disturbed brain and talented mind.
Antimale antibodies could perhaps interfere with the usual masculinization of the brain that occurs before birth, though no such antibodies have yet been detected.
Gram-negative rods, especially Bacteroides, are the usual pathogens in otogenic brain abscesses, which are typically single and located in the adjacent temporal lobe or cerebellum.
In contrast to the usual partition of the brain cortex into four sets of modally-related areas, we find that this modular organization plays a secondary role in the emergence of synchronization patterns.
Such mice also lacked the usual fissure between the brain's hemispheres, a characteristic of WWS, and suffered from an overabundance of glia.
We use this as a starting point to compare the tissue-specific diversity of human and mouse α-dystrobrevin transcripts, and show that more than half of the usual mammalian α-dystrobrevin brain isoforms are non-existent in mouse.
However, this child was not brain dead, the usual first step in organ donation.
Atherosclerosis of the arteries of the brain is the usual cause of stroke.
