··7 min readThe newly developed HeadXNet deep learning system can accurately detect clinically significant aneurysms from patients' brain scans. The tool could improve diagnostics and care for those experiencing aneurysms. Read More
A fatal brain stem tumor was cleared by injecting it with engineered T-cells that recognized cancer and targeted it for destruction in mouse models, researchers report. Read More
According to researchers, under the right conditions, children as young as 4 can discern misleading, but technically accurate, information. Read More
Researchers have created an artificial nervous system that may give prosthetics and robots reflexes and the ability to sense touch. The system is sensitive enough to identify letters in the Braille alphabet. Read More
Reducing the excitation-inhibition ratio by diminishing excitability of pyramidal neurons or increasing excitability of PV neurons led mice to spend more time engaged in social encounters. Researchers believe the excitation-inhibition balance may play a key role in autism and normal social behavior. Read More
A decade worth of data reveals people who multitask with different forms of media at once are worse at completing simple memory tasks. Read More
Blocking VCAM1 increased neurogenesis, and reduced microglia reactivity in the hippocampus of older mice. Read More
Researchers have developed what they have dubbed a 'brain stethoscope', a device capable of turning EEG brain wave data into sound. The device is able to detect epileptic seizures that do not result in convulsions. Read More
New advances in brain computer interface technology allows three people with movement impairments to control a cursor by imagining their hand movements. Read More
In children with autism, the sound of their mom's voice creates a weaker brain response than in their peers not on the autism spectrum, a new study reports. Read More
