A new study involving student-athletes reveals that an artificial intelligence computer program, adept at processing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), can successfully detect structural changes in…
Scientists have identified a protein, Arl8b, associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Found in high levels alongside amyloid-beta plaques in both mice and humans, Arl8b could be…
The FDA is anticipated to approve a third Alzheimer’s drug, donanemab, signaling progress in slowing the disease. The drug showed a 35% slowdown in cognitive…
Applying powerful magnetic pulses to the skull to stimulate the brain can rapidly alleviate symptoms in many severely depressed individuals for whom traditional treatments have…
Researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory have generated detailed images of a neuronal channel known as Calcium Homeostasis Modulator Protein 1 (CALHM1), which plays significant…
A new study indicates that exposure to a particular scent can enhance the immune system and boost cognitive function in animals affected by this neurodegenerative…
A new study shows that truncated versions of the Tau protein are more likely to form the sticky filaments seen in the brains of people…
A cluster of neurons in the brains of fruit flies has been found to control visual aversion to scary objects. Averting our eyes from things…
Research from the University of Exeter indicates that visual illusions result from our eyes and brain’s neural limitations rather than complex mental processes. The study’s…
How do our brains develop the ability to form particular memories? A pioneering preclinical study conducted by a research group at The Hospital for Sick…
In a first-of-its-kind breakthrough, a study involving over 22,000 multiple sclerosis patients, has identified a genetic variant that speeds up the progression of the disease….
Researchers have developed a potential depression treatment that demonstrates both stress-relieving and anti-depressant effects with minimal side effects. Millions of individuals globally grapple with depression…
Scientists have discovered that distinct brain regions are involved in music and language processing, with specific areas engaged for complexity in melodies and sentences. The…
A study in Cell Genomics has found a link between somatic genetic mutations and schizophrenia. Researchers analyzed over 20,000 blood samples, identifying genes NRXN1 and…
Artificial intelligence facilitates the visualization of neural connections in the brains of mice. Scientists from Johns Hopkins have leveraged artificial intelligence to create a technique…
Scientists identified a signaling pathway within brain cells that regulates how long and how deeply we sleep. A good night’s sleep can work wonders for…
A study has found that long-duration space travel leads to significant expansion of brain ventricles, requiring approximately three years for full recovery. This discovery could…
