Groundbreaking Harvard research is exposing hidden energy failures inside brain cells that may drive major psychiatric ...

A trailblazing Genomic Press interview with Dr. Bruce M. Cohen explores how cutting-edge brain cell technology is providing ...

Researchers have shown that a green-Mediterranean diet can help slow brain aging. By analyzing data from the DIRECT PLUS trial, scientists found reduced levels of proteins tied to faster brain decline ...

A brain imaging technique developed by Columbia researchers has identified areas in the brain's cerebral cortex—just behind the forehead—that are most damaged by the repetitive impacts from heading a ...

There must be something about the human brain that’s different from the brains of other animals — something that enables humans to plan, imagine the future, solve crossword puzzles, tell sarcastic ...

Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) provides funding as a member of The Conversation UK. Staring at the ceiling while the clock blinks 3am doesn’t only sap energy for the next day. A large, long-running US ...

An important milestone for brain-computer interfaces has been achieved. A new peer-reviewed neuroscience study led by researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) demonstrates a ...

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have the potential to usher in a new era of transformative medical treatments, capable ...

From Santiago Ramón y Cajal’s hand came branches and whorls, spines and webs. Now-famous drawings by the neuroanatomist in the late 19th and early 20th centuries showed, for the first time, the ...

A man who hasn’t been able to move or speak for years imagines picking up a cup and filling it with water. In response to the man’s thoughts, a robotic arm mounted on his wheelchair glides forward, ...

Once in the brain, lung cancer cells can plug themselves into the electrical circuitry there and grow, a study of mice shows. The results, published September 10 in Nature, highlight the deep and ...

A review of over 100 years of neuroscience research asks if some brain regions are more important than others for consciousness. What gives rise to human consciousness? Are some parts of the brain ...
