May marks a fresh start—and your brain’s on board. As you try new things or build better habits, your neurons light up and strengthen their connections. It’s the perfect season to rewire for growth. . . . #springvibes #neuroplasticity #brainquote #branchoutnf #neurons #growth

Your brain uses a lot of fuel—up to 50% of your blood’s oxygen and energy when you’re deep in thought! Every minute, 750–1,000 ml of blood flows through it—that’s a whole wine bottle or soda bottle. . . . #brainfacts #didyouknow #oxygen #branchoutnf #brain

Your thoughts really do light things up! 💡 The human brain generates about 20 watts of electrical power — roughly the same amount needed to power a small LED light bulb, bright enough for a desk lamp or reading light! Even at rest, your brain is buzzing with energy and potential

Meet Jonah Rivette, our funded undergrad from University of Alberta, exploring how non-invasive spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) could improve muscle control for people with paralysis. His research could help fine-tune this technique to boost movement or reduce spasticity. #BranchOutNF

We’re proud to support Mariam Alshaikh’s summer research at U Calgary — where zebrafish + endurance training may unlock new ways to prevent stroke and neurodegeneration. Her work explores how exercise strengthens developing brain vessels in CSVD-risk models. Go Mariam!
