Researchers discover a child's ability to read depends mostly on where the child is born, rather than on their individual qualities.
Pericytes could provide novel targets for the treatment and diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, a new study reports.
New research explores how mindfulness meditation could enhance both musical engagement and performance. Additional research into mindfulness meditation could potentially lead to new treatment for mental illness and brain injuries.
UCLA researchers have for the first time measured the activity of a brain region known to be involved in learning, memory and Alzheimer's disease during sleep. They discovered that the entorhinal cortex behaves as if it's remembering something, even under anesthesia, a finding that counters conventional theories about memory consolidation during sleep.
Carries of the TREM2 genetic mutation associated with Alzheimer's disease could develop the disease up to three years earlier than expected, a new study finds.
Researchers find no significant difference in concussion symptoms and recovery times between different age groups, from middle school children to college athletes.
A new way of looking at a cell's surface reveals the distribution of small molecules in the cell membrane, changing the understanding of its organization.
A new study combined neuroimaging with machine learning to reveal cellular properties in different brain regions. The approach and findings, researchers report, could potentially be used to asses the treatment of neurological disorders and develop new therapies.
Soldiers who suffered TBI as a result of an IED blast are more likely to have pituitary hormone problems than patients with TBI caused by accidents, a new study suggests.
Research seeks the 'master knob' to turn on nerve repair. Modulating immune response to injury could accelerate the regeneration of severed peripheral nerves, a new study in an animal model has found. By altering activity of the macrophage cells that respond to injuries, researchers dramatically increased the rate at which nerve processes regrew.
Research from The University of Western Ontario is now looking beyond spinal cord injuries in patients to better understand what...
Representatives from medical societies created a multispecialty and international consensus on the metrics and benchmarks for processes of care and technical and clinical outcomes for stroke patients.
