The brains of clever people really are wired differently, according to new research.

It allows them to absorb important facts quickly – while blocking out irrelevant information, suggests the study.

Scientists used MRI scans on more than 300 volunteers to shed light on the nature of intelligence. They had already identified areas of the brain that control IQ – and now they have uncovered the mechanism behind it.

It could even be possible for people to make themselves more intelligent with brain training games, for instance, say researchers.

Challenging tasks may help in the development of networks in the brain – encouraging different parts to interact.

The breakthrough could lead to major new understandings of how the human brain works – and Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological disorders.
