Stimulating a part of the auditory cortex called the planum temporale improved speech perception, researchers report.
Hearing loss and epilepsy are early features of Parkinson's disease, a new study reveals.
A newly designed compact device for recording brain activity has a customizable configuration and could help people with restricted mobility regain control of their limbs or provide advanced warnings of epileptic seizures.
Optogentic stimulation has the potential to cultivate resilience to epileptic seizures in animal models, researchers report.
Children with autism have abnormally low levels of the CNTNAP2 protein. The protein, which can be detected in cerebrospinal fluid samples, may serve as a new biomarker for autism and could potentially become a target to treat epilepsy that is commonly associated with ASD.
Deficits in the dentate gyrus function that causes memory problems may be associated with epileptic seizures a new study reports. The abnormal activity leads to over-extinction, spurring on seizures.
The dSlo2 channel appears to play a role in suppressing hyperactivity in the brain that causes epileptic seizures.
A common underlying defect in the formation of neural circuitry may contribute to the development of both autism and epilepsy, researchers report.
A new method that merged artificial intelligence with electrical brain stimulation improved brain functions related to self-control and mental flexibility.
Reducing tau can prevent abnormal brain activity associated with Alzheimer's disease, autism, and epilepsy.
When dysfunctional, somatostatin interneurons drive brain activity and provoke seizures.
Scientists have identified three acidic cannabinoids in cannabis that reduces seizure activity in mouse models of Dravet syndrome.
