The recent study, published in Neuroscience, explores how DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and exercise work together to enhance brain function and cognitive recovery post-injury. The combination of DHA and exercise significantly improved cognitive function and brain health markers, suggesting a powerful tool in TBI recovery. This synergy offers a promising approach for TBI patients.

The study found that national-level talents and senior academic titles significantly boost research output. In contrast, associate senior titles showed a less clear, sometimes negative, correlation with research productivity. This suggests that higher academic titles may provide more opportunities and resources, enabling researchers to contribute more effectively to their fields.
