A newly developed system allowed researchers to visualize, in real-time, how the brain embarks on the decision making process.
A single protein called 15-PGDH appears to be a master regulator of muscle function during aging. Blocking the protein in mice increased muscle strength and endurance.
A new study reveals a correlation between multimedia multitasking, memory loss, and difficulties in maintaining attention.
Researchers have identified a key neural circuit that plays a role in dissociation, a phenomenon in which people can feel disconnected from their bodies and reality.
Researchers contend racism is a deeply American problem and identify seven factors that contribute to racism in the U.S today. Of the seven factors, the most insidious, researchers say, is passivism, which includes apathy towards systems of racial advantage or denial that those systems exist.
A new wireless intracortical brain-computer interface neuroprosthesis is capable of gathering and transmitting accurate neural signals, using a tenth of the power required by current wire-enabled systems.
Making two different changes to a single messenger protein, researchers were able to inhibit lung cancer growth and promote neurogenesis.
COSMOS, a newly developed optical technique, can simultaneously record the activity of neurons across the entire top surface of a mouse's cerebral cortex.
Lower levels of vasopressin were present in the cerebrospinal fluid of infants who later went on to be diagnosed with autism.
31.9% of COVID-19 patients reported experiencing gastrointestinal problems as a result of their infection. 22% reported a loss of appetite, with an additional 22% reporting nausea and vomiting, and 12% reported diarrhea. 40% of patients had elevated levels of an abnormal liver enzyme.
Older mice who exercised had enhanced muscle repair capabilities. Findings suggest exercise can help restore youthful tissue repair.
Carriers of one copy of the longevity associated klotho gene reduces Alzheimer's risks by 30% for those with genetic risk factors for the neurodegenerative disease.
