A new study has found that adults with ADHD experience brief episodes of brain activity resembling sleep while awake, which is linked to difficulties with concentration and an increase in errors. These findings could help in developing new methods to improve attention.
Researchers from Stanford have proposed an innovative way to support attention in ADHD—by amplifying the everyday sounds of routine actions. This approach helps increase mindfulness and reduce distractions without the use of medication.
A new study has shown that the human brain quickly adapts to new tasks thanks to its ability to flexibly combine existing skills—something that current AI systems are still unable to do. These findings could help advance artificial intelligence and improve therapies for cognitive disorders.
