More than a billion people around the world suffer from migraines, facing unbearable pain daily. Researchers are now exploring innovative treatments that offer hope to those struggling with this neurological condition. Megan Daniels, 35, a solicitor from Liverpool, starts her day with a small device that looks like a walkie-talkie. She massages it along her neck and jaw, feeling tiny electric pulses spread across her face and head. "It’s soothing and almost trance-like," she says. She repeats the process at lunch and before bed, hoping to prevent migraines before they strike. This device uses neuromodulation, sending electric signals to nerves in the face and head. For many, these modern therapies are changing how migraines are managed. Understanding Migraine Migraines remain a medical mystery. They cause intense headaches, often on one side of the head, and bring symptoms like dizziness, nausea, or visual disturbances. About 25% of sufferers also experience an aura, a shifting light in their vision. Despite the wide range of symptoms, migraines are the second most common cause of disability worldwide. They affect people differently. Most sufferers are women, but children can also experience migraines, sometimes as severe stomach pain. "There’s no clear objective measure for migraine," explains Teshamae Monteith, chief of the headache division at the University of Miami Health System. This makes diagnosing and treating migraines especially challenging. New Treatments Offer Hope Researchers are now finding new ways to treat migraines. From Botox injections that relax facial muscles to devices that stimulate nerves with electric pulses, the options are growing. Some therapies even use magnetic pulses or target proteins in the brain to reduce pain. Neurologist Narayan Kissoon from the Mayo Clinic says, "It’s an exciting time for migraine treatment. Ten years ago, options were limited. Now, we can offer patients many more ways to manage their condition." Even with these advances, migraines remain difficult to treat. Each patient experiences symptoms differently, making personalized care essential. Looking Ahead With more research and new technologies, migraines may become easier to manage in the future. For now, devices, Botox, and other therapies provide relief for millions, helping sufferers regain control over their daily lives.

Childhood Memories and Cultural Influence I remember a hot afternoon in a small village near Kolkata, India. The adults were asleep, and my cousin and I were sitting on the floor, munching puffed rice with mustard oil. She asked, "Do people in Sweden eat cows and pigs?" At the time, I was 10 and felt a little ashamed as I nodded. Then she asked, "So do they eat dogs and cats too?" Growing up in Sweden, with an Indian mother, I had never thought about it. Vegetarianism was uncommon, and Swedish children saw cows mainly as food. My cousin, however, loved animals and rescued any creature she felt was in danger. She didn’t eat meat. These moments made me realize how culture shapes the way we think, feel, and behave. If I had grown up in India, would my morals, sense of humor, or dreams be different? Would I still be the same person? Nature Versus Nurture Scientists and philosophers have asked these questions for centuries. Now, cross-cultural psychology is starting to provide answers. While DNA gives each person a unique blueprint, it does not fully determine who we are. Ziada Ayorech, a psychiatric geneticist at the University of Oslo, shares her experience. Born in Uganda, she moved to Canada at age three, spent much of her life in the UK, and recently moved to Norway. "All the places I've lived have shaped my perspective. I can’t imagine they didn’t influence me," she says. Twin Studies Reveal Insights Researchers study twins to separate the effects of genetics and environment. Identical twins share nearly all DNA, while non-identical twins share about half. If identical twins are more likely to share a trait than non-identical twins, genetics likely plays a bigger role. A 2015 study analyzed nearly 50 years of research on 17,000 traits in 14 million twins worldwide. It explored education, political beliefs, and psychiatric conditions. The study concluded that while genetics influence many traits, environment and upbringing play a significant role. Ching-Yu Huang, a psychologist, says, "Your brain would be very different if you grew up in Taiwan, even with the same DNA." The Takeaway Where and how we grow up shapes more than just our language or habits. It affects our morals, dreams, and the way we see the world. Understanding this helps explain why people from different cultures can think, feel, and act in such diverse ways.
