A group of researchers carried out a study at the Center for Research in Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology (CINN) in Asturias, northern Spain, and discovered that molecular rejuvenation of the brain is possible if cognitive and physical stimulation is applied.

In this study, published in the journal Nature Communications, scientists speak of a “molecular atlas” that “describes the molecular changes that occur in the hippocampus during aging and during its cognitive and physical stimulation.”

In conjunction with the University of Oviedo, the institute carried out the observation of mice that were kept in contact for months with a wide variety of objects, such as toys, ramps or tunnels. The objective was to provoke continuous stimulation of their cognitive, physical and social activity.

Extrapolating to humans, they predict a strong stimulation when making a change in their lifestyle.

Mario Fernández Fraga, coordinator of the CINN Cancer Epigenetics and Nanomedicine Laboratory and co-leader of the study, said: “The results of this work reveal how changes in our lifestyle can have a molecular and epigenetic impact on the body and be used in healthy aging interventions.”

This is a study with revealing results in the study of the brain, aging, cognitive and physical stimulation, as well as human quality of life.

The multinational company Nvidia, developed a series of robotic AI brains  in 2018 and recently unveiled its new module called Jetson AGX Orin, which has a processing power six times faster than its predecessor Xavier and a super reduced size.

The new Orin was created to be a “low-power AI supercomputer”, especially for use in “robotics, autonomous and medical devices, as well as extreme AI applications that currently don’t seem possible.”

Robotics has very specialized procedures and requires a chip called a brain with a very high processing capacity, capable of executing about “200 billion operations per second“, capable of performing various AI applications with efficient energy consumption.

Orin was made with an “Nvidia Ampere GPU architecture” characterized by an Arm Cortex-A78AE chip, with “Deep Learning specifications, vision accelerators and the ability to run multiple Artificial Intelligence apps”.

Nvidia has long tried to lead in the field of autonomous cars and estimates that the Jetson AGX Orin will be released in the first months of next year, although the exact date and price at which it will be marketed is unknown.
