A Maysville man fell in love with running after surviving a serious brain injury. Now, he is getting ready to run the Flying Pig Half Marathon. "The injury happened in the septal, lower back of my ...

Meaning that, “when the brain is in a high- or low-arousal state, a mind blank is more likely to occur.” In experiments with healthy volunteers, the brain shows signs of “deactivation” and an increase ...

You know that feeling when your mind goes blank? One minute you’re happily getting on with something; the next, it’s like all the thoughts have just fallen out of your head. A new study is ...
