Sex, Violence and The Male Warrior Hypothesis
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
Throughout the history of human civilization, wars have a common feature of being practiced primarily by males. This group aggression by males is a persistent trait of human behavior, seen across different continents among civilizations that have developed independent of each other.
Also, experimental evidence suggests that compared to females, male behavior and psychology is more [...]... Read more »

Is Time on Your Side?
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
Physicians are under mounting pressure to increase efficiency in the provision of medical care. That is, see more patients in less time for less money. But, since speed and accuracy do not always go hand-in-hand, does this increased physician efficiency lead to quality medical care? A recent study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine [...]... Read more »

Weight in the Workplace
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
The statistics are everywhere: most of the adults in the United States are overweight or obese. These conditions are, of course, responsible for increased health care costs owing to chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease.

White Bears – The Paradox of Mental Suppression
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
Whatever you do, don’t think of a white bear. Go on, close your eyes, relax, but don’t think of a white bear… So, what happened? Most likely, you were overwhelmed by thoughts of a white bear.

One Size Does Not Fit All
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
Up to half of drug therapy is ineffective, according to recent statistics. This leaves patients’ diseases untreated, but also places them at risk for side effects and drug interactions.

The Secret to Good Health – Listen to the Data

A recent study proved what we all already know… that healthy living really does improve long-term health. A lot.

The Evolution of Depression
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
Millions of people around the world suffer from depression, the most common mental disorder of all. Since depression appears to be largely genetic, several long-standing questions continue to bedevil researchers. Have the genes for clinical unipolar depression undergone selective evolution–or is depression a random product of mutation, evolutionary drift, or other non-selective forces?
The symptoms of [...]... Read more »

A Small Sip from the Fountain of Youth

The search for eternal youth is as old as time itself. The theme of immortality winds its way through religion, mythology, poetry, fiction, and modern movies.

Is Knowledge Power? Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing
by Shaheen Lakhan in Brain Blogger
The completion of the sequencing of the human genome in 2003 was an outstanding scientific accomplishment.

Two Wrongs Make a Right – Abnormal Brain Circuitry May Stop Abnormal Movement
