Oxford University scientists have developed a new method for delivering complex drugs directly to the brain, a necessary step for... Read More
A wearable positron emission tomography (PET) scanner that rats can wear on their heads has been developed and tested effectively. Read More
The results of a Phase 1 clinical trial involving stem cells from a patient's own bone marrow used to treat traumatic brain injury in children show that the procedure is safe. Read More
Neurobiology research combining laser scanning and electron microscopy, novel neuroimaging techniques and neural network modeling is providing new insight into how real neural circuits may behave. Read More
New Parkinson's disease research suggests defective regulation of microtubules may be responsible for some cases of Parkinson's disease. Read More
Research into amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, has lead to new information about neuronal loss... Read More
New memory research suggests that lactate and astrocytes have more important roles in long-term memory formation than previously thought by... Read More
Research involving programmed cell death has lead to new information about the involvement of a protein named FLIP in cell... Read More
Quit smoking messages were more effective when tailored toward an individual and when that individual showed greater activity in self-related... Read More
Scientists show that SR-3306 delivered orally to mice and rat models of Parkinson's disease was able to protect brain cells from neurodegeneration. SR-3306 inhibits the c-jun-N-terminal kinases (JNK) class of enzymes, previously shown to play large roles in neuron survival. Read More
Scientists found that the protein named reelin is deeply involved in the migration of new nerve cells to the neocortex... Read More
Scientists have shown that stem cells delivered to rats via a nasal spray lead to an improvement of motor functions... Read More
