Researchers uncover mechanism which controls synaptic growth and causes them to overgrow.
Consuming drinks which are high in sugar or high-fructose corn syrup leads to memory problems and neuroinflammation in adolescent rats, a new study reports.
A new neuroimaging study examines the brain networks which control the use of tools and other utensils.
Researchers report the content of consciousness is based in two different regions of the brain.
In an attempt to understand what happens in the brain of schizophrenics, researchers analysed proteins in the brains of rats who had been given the hallucinogen PCP.
Researchers demonstrate the close relationship between body perception and our ability to store new memories.
Researchers believe they have identified a gene which links the thickness of gray matter in the brain to intelligence.
Using neuroimaging technology to measure the size and connectivity of the amygdala allows researchers to predict the degree of anxiety a young child experiences in daily life, a new study reports.
Patients with temporal lobe epilepsy have widespread, abnormal connections in their brains. The finding could provide new clues for diagnosis and treatment, a new study suggests.
Researchers have identified a new and more accurate way to determine which portions of the brain suffer from epilepsy. The information could provide patients and doctors with better information as to whether temporal lobe surgery will provide the best treatment outcome.
A new study suggests exercise could improve cognitive function in people at risk for Alzheimer's disease as it improves the efficiency of brain activity associated with memory.
Researchers discover early accumulation of amyloid plaques in the temporal lobe is associated with cognitive decline. The finding could serve as a new biomarker for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease.
