Researchers decipher the pathways by which the brain alters its own perception of the outside world.
A new study helps further understanding on how the brain processes visual information.
Lower levels of the circular RNA in the frontal cortex appears to be correlated with earlier onset of schizophrenia symptoms.
Findings reveal how individual neurons in the thalamus can merge signals coming from different regions of the cortex. The findings could lead to new treatment options for schizophrenia, epilepsy, and other brain disorders where thalamus dysfunction is related to clinical symptoms.
Researchers discover UPF1 helps determine whether an immature neural cell remains as a stem cell or develops into a functional neuron.
Exposure to nitrogen dioxide and nitrogen oxides through air pollution is linked to an increased risk of experiencing psychotic symptoms in teenagers. Accounting for other known risk factors, exposure to both NO2 and NOx accounted for 60% of the link between symptoms of psychosis and living in an urban environment.
Researchers collaborate to create a neuropsychiatric cellular biobank.
A new study sheds light on the role the immune system may play in Schizophrenia.
Researchers have identified 35 genes associated with cannabis use. The study reports many of these genes are also associated with personality types, risk taking behavior, alcohol and tobacco use, and some psychiatric conditions.
Applying transcranial direct current stimulation to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex can help to improve cognitive control and may be a beneficial treatment for those with autism, schizophrenia and ADHD, a new study reports.
Teens with schizophrenia symptoms and a genetic abnormality of chromosome 22 had significant brain atrophy in the hippocampus compared to those with the genetic variant and no psychiatric symptoms.
The gene Gomafu might be key to understanding how our brain rapidly responds to stressful experiences, researchers report.
