Neuroscientists discover that genetic switches inside neuron cell bodies direct axon pathfinding, opening new paths for spinal injury repair.
A study of 2,800+ brain MRIs links neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage to accelerated brain aging, reduced volume, and vascular damage.
Scientists discover opposing brain circuits in the orbitofrontal cortex that predict risky choices 500 ms before they occur.
Insilico Medicine debuts AI-driven Longevity Vaccines using circular mRNA and LNPs to clear senescent culprit cells and reverse immunosenescence.
Scientists discover RNA-scaffolded SFPQ condensates in neurons that enable the transcription of extra-long genes, providing new insights into ASD and ALS.
Naturally occurring anti-NMDAR1 IgM antibodies protect against depression and PTSD after traumatic brain injury by shielding extrasynaptic receptors.
Scientists have uncovered sweeping changes in how the human brain controls and organizes its genome beginning in midlife, offering new clues to why aging sharply increases the risk of Alzheimer’s and other…
Fascinated by meter and aware through experience of the challenges of teaching it to students, Andrea Calilhanna studies neuroscience to find ways to improve how meter is taught.
Sometimes it’s the simplest things, neurologist and dementia expert Rowena Mobbs says. Like pruning back the garden, or planting a tree. Or just simply sitting in the local park; in her case, Wendy ...
In two Indigenous communities living preindustrial lifestyles in the Bolivian Amazon, dementia is remarkably uncommon. However, a new longitudinal study reveals why earlier estimates told only part of ...
It’s NFL season again. In the Minnesota Vikings’ first game of the season, quarterback Kyler Murray’s debut run made it just 11 plays before a violent shoulder to the right side of his helmet sent him ...
Reading for pleasure may boost memory, empathy and mental health, reduce stress and help reduce cognitive decline, new research finds.
Dementia symptoms progress in multiple stages of preclinical, mild, moderate, and severe without following a strict linear path. Now a recently published study in the journal Alzheimer’s and Dementia, ...
People with type 2 diabetes already face a higher risk of heart disease and stroke, but they are also more likely to develop problems with memory and thinking as they grow older. New research suggests ...
Scientists are finding new clues about why some people’s brains may age faster than others. A new study from UCLA Health suggests that bacteria living in the gut, along with chemicals produced or ...
When Marita Long and her husband decided to venture into small-scale regenerative farming, she didn’t realise just how good it would be for her brain health.
New research links frequent sleep micro-awakenings with higher genetic Alzheimer’s risk in middle-aged adults.
Surgery can restore communication between the hand and brain, but new research suggests the brain’s response to individual fingers may change.
Repeated blows to the head can leave lasting damage in the brain, even when each individual hit does not cause a clear concussion. Scientists have long been concerned about this problem in people who ...
New neurotechnology could eventually help people who have lost speech faculties due to stroke or brain conditions ...
Scientists have discovered that the brain’s short-range wiring may help protect cognition even as gray matter shrinks with age. Healthier connections just beneath the brain’s surface were linked to ...
New blood tests that might predict Alzheimer’s years before symptoms begin may sound tantalizing for people who worry about later-in-life dementia. But doctors say they aren’t quite ready ...
Certain fruits, including berries, citrus, and pomegranates, contain nutrients that improve cognitive health. The darker the fruit, the more brain-healthy nutrients it may have.
Google Research mapped a male fruit fly’s brain, and it only took a few days for modders to start making it play Doom.
A major new British study has found a surprising difference in Alzheimer’s rates among women taking it, but the evidence is far from clear ...
