Learning to code doesn’t require new brain systems—it builds on the ones we already use for logic and reasoning.

Brain scans show that most of us have a built-in capacity to learn to code, rooted in the brain’s logic and reasoning ...

Findings by Hopkins researchers suggest that all humans are equipped with the foundation needed to learn programming ...

Computer programming powers modern society and enabled the AI revolution, but little is known about how our brains learn this ...

Parts of the brain are "rewired" when people learn computer programming, according to new research. Scientists watched ...

Neuroscientists from MIT have found that reading computer code does not activate the areas in the brain used to process language. Instead, they found that it activates general-purpose neural networks ...

Though researchers have long suspected the brain mechanism for computer programming would be similar to that for math or even language, this study revealed that when seasoned coders work, most brain ...

Coding is the process or activity of writing computer programs, and of course, humans do this by using their brains. It should be no surprise that coding has an impact on the brain — it improves the ...

Expert computer programmers show higher proficiency in certain behavioral and attention skills than their novice peers. To identify the responsible brain regions, scientists used fMRI to analyze the ...
