If you try and learn a language, regardless of your age, synaptic connections are made, which ultimately create a denser grey matter and stronger white matter networks.

如果你试着学习一门语言，不管你的年龄如何，（你脑的）突就会建立起来，最终形成一个更密集的灰质和更强的白质网络。

The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis is supported by an MRI which shows multiple central nervous system lesions, called white matter plaques, since these regions tend to have lots of myelin.

诊断多发性硬化需要MRI的支持，显示多发的中枢神经统损伤（白质斑），因为该处有量髓鞘。

Other studies, he noted, have shown that air pollution has a great effect on the white matter in the brain, but not the gray matter.

他指出，其他研究表明，空气污染对脑中白质有极的响，但对灰质没有响。

Using MRI-generated images of water molecules moving within the brain's white matter, scientists at the British company Holoxica created a hologram showing the connections between neurons.

Reading can facilitate neuroplasticity, potentially enhancing the structure of white matter in the brain, which is crucial for connecting different brain regions.

阅读可以促进神经可塑性，有可能增强脑白质的结构，这对于脑不同区域至关重要。

They also found that it was likely most of the damage occurred to white brain matter instead of gray matter.

他们还发现，部分损伤可能发生在脑白质上，而不是灰质上。

Specifically, there is a clear degradation of white matter in the regions that control emotional processing, attention and decision making.

具体来说，是控制情感处理、注意力和决策的区域的白质明显退化。

Imaging studies show that white and gray matter volumes undergo drastic changes during adolescence, and continuing through your twenties.

像研究表明白质量和灰质量会在青春期发生剧烈变化，并将持续到 20 多岁。

This is where 'white matter' comes in. The white matter is the inner part of the brain.

这时白质区就要发挥作用了。白质区位于脑内部。

What researchers found was that preschoolers who looked at electronic screens for more than an hour a day had less development in their brains white matter than kids who had less screen time.

研究人员发现，每天看电子屏幕超过一个小时的学龄前儿童，其脑白质的发育程度要低于看屏幕时间较短的孩子。

Now, if you look at the cross-section of the spinal cord, the white matter is on the outside and the gray matter is on the inside, and overall it looks like a butterfly.

现在来看看脊髓的横截面，白质在外面，灰质在里面，总体看上去像一只蝴蝶。

The research proposed that Gage lost around 11 percent of his white matter, specifically white matter connecting the orbital frontal cortex of the frontal lobe to the limbic system.

研究表明，盖奇损失了约 11% 的白质，特别是额叶额眶皮质和边缘统的白质。

White matter refers to connections that are myelinated, coated in a layer of insulation, allowing for fast far-range communication between information hubs.

白质指的是有髓鞘的神经纤维，由一层保护层包裹，保证了信息中心之间的远距离快速交流。

Our findings are very consistent with the hypothesis that the white matter is the key to explain this result.

“我们的研究结果与白质是解释这种结果的关键这一假设非常一致。

Researchers looked at their brains white matter, an area thought to be linked to literacy and language skills, which help kids learn in school.

研究人员观察了他们的脑白质，（脑白质）被认为是与语言识字技能有关的区域，可帮助孩子的在校学习。

This gray matter reduction coincides with an increase in white matter.

灰质减少的同时，白质正在增加。

Now, the spinal cord is composed of both grey and white matter.

脊髓由灰质和白质共同组成。
