Findings of a new study could help to design better strategies to improve sleep in workers with atypical work schedules.
As interest in using psychedelics to treat a range of mental health disorders grows, researchers consider the impact and therapeutic benefits of using psychedelics to help alleviate symptoms of depression.
A new study that utilized machine learning tools provides a new map that links genetic signatures to functions across the human brain.
Forming an accurate impression of a person is important as people rely on their instincts when deciding to begin a relationship. People who report greater personal wellbeing are easier to "read" than others on first impression.
Money really may not be the key to happiness, according to a new study. Researchers found people who live in societies where money plays a limited role tend to lead a happier life.
LSD increases social behaviors by activating 5-HTPA serotonin receptors and AMPA receptors in the prefrontal cortex, and the mTORC1 protein. Activating all three factors promoted social interactions. The findings suggest supervised LSD microdosing may help alleviate some of the social problems associated with ASD and other mental health disorders that impact social behaviors.
Mothers with more than one child reported more sleep disruptions that mothers with just one child. The number of children did not impact the quality, or quantity, of sleep for fathers.
4E-BPs proteins are key to unlocking ketamine's antidepressant effects. When 4E-BPs are absent in neurons, ketamine can not produce its antidepressant effect.
Researchers have identified a cancer-causing mutation in the PDGFRA gene that drives cell mutation and growth when activated. The findings have implications for the treatment of a subset of glioblastoma brain cancer.
Study identified the neural markers of beat synchronization in the brain and sheds light on how auditory perception and motor processes work together.
Mouse study reveals the deletion of the OSMR gene significantly improves glioblastoma tumor response to therapy and extended lifespan.
APOEe4, a gene associated with Alzheimer's disease risk, doesn't appear to directly affect memory performance or brain activity in older adults without cognitive impairment. However, the gene does seem to influence brain regions and systems that older at-risk adults activate to support successful memory recall.
