Scientific research is helping to unlock the secrets behind why some people live to become super-agers. Researchers propose ways in which we can slow the aging process and extend our life spans.
A new machine learning algorithm was able to predict, with 98% accuracy, which patients would develop Alzheimer's disease, six years prior to diagnosis by analyzing PET brain scans.
A new study challenges 75 year old dogma of mammalian vision. Researchers have shows the post rhinal cortex obtains visual data from the superior colliculus and is not dependent upon information from primary visual cortex.
Researchers report menopausal women who experience intimate partner violence and emotional abuse have increased risk of developing heightened symptoms of menopause.
A new study reveals common brain activity patterns associated with depressive moods.
Researchers report the earliest signs of neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer's disease are linked to some psychiatric symptoms, including anxiety, depression and sleep disturbances. The findings could lead to earlier diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
Scientists are beginning to understand the neuroscience behind sensory processing disorder and are developing new therapies to help those with SPD.
Researchers reveal the area of the brain that controls our voice box, allowing us to alter the pitch of our speech. The insight could pave the way for advancing neuroprosthetics to allow people who can't speak, to express themselves in a naturalistic way.
A new study reports overweight and obese young adults are almost twice as likely than their peers of lower weight to binge, purge and embark on other behaviors associated with eating disorders. Researchers found Asian/Pacific islanders and sexual minorities were also at higher risk of developing eating disorders.
Findings about how the speech center is organized and how fluid speech occurs could lead to the development of neuroprosthetics capable of translating thoughts into speech, researchers report.
Researchers report a new 'anti-radiation' medication can help protect astronauts' brains from the cosmic radiation of deep space.
A new study adds to growing evidence that concussions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases. Researchers report the likelihood of developing dementia was found to double following a concussion, even when consciousness wasn't lost, in a veteran study.
