A new 3-D printed biomaterial is able to mimic the properties of living brain tissue. The new material could be used to enhance regenerative medicine therapies. Read More
Discovery could pave the way for new treatments for chronic pain in humans, researchers report. Read More
Applying transcranial magnetic stimulation to brain networks responsible for memory helped improve memories of complex and realistic events. Read More
Gene expressions in the brain that occur early in development may explain why some cerebellar stem cell populations behave differently in people with SCA1, researchers report. Read More
Applying an AI to analyze tweets, researchers report people's attitudes toward COVID-19 may be more infectious than the virus itself. Read More
Precision-medicine enhanced with the help of artificial intelligence assisted in the identification of a new autism subtype that was characterized by abnormal lipid levels. AI-enhanced precision medicine could become a biomedical screening tool for ASD. Read More
NU-9, a novel, non-toxic compound, targets upper motor neurons and reverses damage associated with ALS within 60 days of treatment. Read More
Researchers have identified a genetic mutation in an extended Amish family that allow them to live 10 percent longer and have 10 percent longer telomeres than other Amish kindred members who do not have the mutation. People with this mutation also have a lower diabetes risk and lower vascular aging, researchers note. Read More
Older people who have higher levels of neuroticism are more likely to have worse cognitive function than those with other personality traits. Researchers say personality traits may be related to how well people can maintain their cognitive function, despite developing neuropathology associated with aging and dementia. Read More
Our attitudes toward others may be attributed to nonverbal signals as much as the behavior of other people. Read More
Researchers note distinct patterns of neural activity as a response to auditory stimuli in patients with concussion. Read More
Using a 'smell virtual landscape', researchers discover the mammalian brain can map our surroundings based on smells alone. Read More
