Gray matter volume in the dosolateral and ventromedial prefrontal cortex predicts whether you will choose a health food option or not, researchers report.
Researchers believe some treatments for mental health conditions may be ineffective, or even dangerous for left handed people. A new study reports areas of the brain housing alertness and determination may be on the right side for left dominant people. The new theory suggests the location of a person's neural system for emotion depends on their handedness.
Researchers have identified a link between neurotransmitter imbalance and brain connectivity in brain areas associated with social communication and language in those with ASD.
Researchers have identified specific brain functions that give you confidence that what you see is actually what you saw.
Researchers report the anatomical structure of our prefrontal cortex may predict how well we stick to healthy eating diet plans.
A new study looks at why pain enhances some people's ability to perform well.
Researchers report intermittent theta burst stimulation can help to alleviate the symptoms of major depressive disorder. 49% of patients who received the treatment reported a significant decrease in symptoms, with 32% reporting remission of depression.
Researchers reveal telling people whether a musician in a professional or student can change the way the brain responds to the music they are playing.
Researchers discover genes associated with major depressive disorder are altered in opposite directions in males compared to females.
Researchers have identified altered gene expression in the prefrontal area of the brain in those with schizophrenia. The study reports schizophrenia may have evolved as 'side effect' of human brain development.
Using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, researchers report they are able to strengthen or weaken the processing of negative emotions.
Using the classic Nintendo game, Super Mario 64, researchers discover playing 3D platform games could help older brains to stave off mild cognitive impairment. Researchers report older people who played the video game had gray matter increases in the cerebellum, hippocampus and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.
