So… thinking and learning do hurt?
I love when science confirms things humans have intuited and already presumed for many many years.
Non rhetorically. I always find it fascinating to have a biochemical explanation for something as simple as “learning something new can possibly help keep our brains healthy by strengthening certain areas”.
One thing I did learn from trying to read the journal article itself, is that I am not a neuroscientist.
Definitely field specific writing.

So learning new stuff gets your brain swole
So cool to see comparisons in what they could learn between different forms of neural imaging
Nice to know the brain fog is just my cells doing heavy lifting.
I know it’s not necessarily one causing the other exactly, but I definitely have a sensation of „brain full now, don’t push it“ sometimes when I’m studying. Like it needs to be digested before new stuff comes in.
