An innovative new clinical trial seeks to explore how the brain adapts to bionic arms in children born without limbs. The study aims to improve prosthetics mastery in children.
A newly developed artificial intelligence algorithm can accurately detect sarcasm in comments written on social media platforms.
Human-on-a-chip technology could provide a more valuable clinical-based model for ALS.
Eating processed food which contains Propionic Acid (PPA) during pregnancy may affect neural stem cell development in the fetal brain. Excessive PPA reduces the number of neurons and over-produces glial cells, causing inflammation. Additionally, PPA shortens neural pathways. The combination of damaged pathways and reduced neurons may be associated with behavioral deficits associated with ASD.
According to researchers, people with the APOE4 gene have a 20% increased risk of developing depression as they age.
CRISPR technology allows researchers to illuminate and monitor alpha synuclein in the brain.
