Researchers have uncovered new information about portions of the brain that spontaneously activate together when a person is at rest. The latest research demonstrates how the interactions of certain brain regions at rest become more distributed as a person ages. It is believed that an increased understanding of normal brain function will allow researchers to better characterize mental disorders such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
