          Hunger, Fear, and the Brain’s Hidden Switch to Turn Off Chronic Pain

          Chronic pain affects nearly 50 million Americans, yet new research reveals the brain may have an internal switch that can turn it down. Scientists identified a group of neurons in the brainstem that regulate long-term pain by integrating signals related to hunger, fear, and thirst.

          Social Inference Could Be the Key to Healing Schizophrenia

          Researchers have identified a brain function that could transform how schizophrenia is treated—by focusing on social inference, the ability to interpret social cues and intentions. The study found that strengthening this skill early can help young patients regain independence and prevent long-term cognitive decline.

          Human Brain-on-a-Chip Reveals How Inflammation Breaks the Mind

          Researchers have developed brain-on-a-chip technology that uses human tissue to model how the brain’s protective barrier breaks down during inflammation and disease. The system replicates the blood-brain barrier, showing how cytokine storms and leaked blood proteins can trigger harmful changes in brain cells.

          Why Comfort Food Feels Like Medicine for People in Chronic Pain

          A new study reveals that more than two-thirds of people living with chronic pain turn to comfort foods—especially chocolate—for emotional relief and distraction during flare-ups. Eating provides temporary pleasure and even mild pain relief, likely due to biological effects of high-calorie foods on the brain’s reward and pain systems.

          Why Older Fathers Pass on More Harmful Mutations to Their Kids

          Groundbreaking research has revealed that as men age, harmful genetic mutations in sperm not only accumulate but are also favored during sperm production, giving them a reproductive advantage. Using ultra-accurate DNA sequencing, scientists found that sperm from older men were significantly more likely to carry disease-causing mutations, including those linked to neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer.

          Reelin Shows Promise for Healing Both Gut and Depression

          A new study reveals that the protein Reelin may hold the key to treating both “leaky gut” and major depressive disorder. Chronic stress lowers Reelin levels in the gut, weakening the intestinal barrier and allowing toxins to trigger inflammation that worsens depression.

          Five Sleep Types Revealed: How Your Brain Wiring Reflects Rest

          A new study has identified five distinct “sleep-biopsychosocial” profiles that connect how we sleep with our brain networks, mental health, cognition, and lifestyle. Using data from over 700 participants, researchers found that different sleep patterns—ranging from poor quality to resilience and short duration—each showed unique neural connectivity patterns.

          Tiny Peptide Shows Powerful Brain Healing After Traumatic Injury

          A small peptide called CAQK, composed of just four amino acids, has shown remarkable neuroprotective effects in mouse and pig models of traumatic brain injury. When injected intravenously, CAQK travels directly to damaged brain tissue, where it binds to overexpressed proteins and reduces inflammation, cell death, and tissue damage.

          Scientists have developed a powerful new imaging method that reveals how immune cells in the eye behave long before visible damage occurs in diabetic retinopathy. Using a combination of a head-fixation device, contact lenses, and a custom objective lens, researchers were able to capture live, high-resolution images of microglia activity in diabetic mice.

          Brain’s Shape Could Reveal the Earliest Signs of Alzheimer’s

          A groundbreaking study reveals that aging alters not just the size but the shape of the human brain, reshaping regions in ways linked to memory and reasoning decline. Researchers found that as people age, the lower and front areas of the brain expand outward, while the upper and back regions compress inward.

          CBD Calms the Inflamed Alzheimer’s Brain

          A new study reveals that cannabidiol (CBD) can significantly reduce neuroinflammation associated with Alzheimer’s disease. In experiments using an Alzheimer’s mouse model, researchers found that inhaled CBD lowered the activity of key genes driving inflammation and decreased harmful proinflammatory molecules in the brain.

          Neurons Burn Fat for Fuel: Discovery Could Reverse Brain Damage

          Scientists have shown that neurons don’t rely solely on sugar for energy — they can also burn fat. When energy demand spikes, neurons even create their own fats by recycling parts of themselves, a process dependent on a key protein called DDHD2.
