Axon myelination is significantly disrupted in patients with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers also found brain cells of men and women vary significantly in how their genes respond to the neurodegenerative disease. Read More
Researchers use a new imaging technique to confirm structural connections in the brain are unique to each person. Read More
A new study reports the ability to delay gratification is linked to white matter connectivity between the caudate and dorsal prefrontal cortex. Read More
Researchers have been able to restore consciousness to a patient who has been in a vegetative state for 15 years. The groundbreaking study utilized vagus nerve stimulation to help restore consciousness to the patient. Read More
A deep learning model uses white matter connectomes generated from MRI images taken at birth to accurately predict an infant's cognitive development at age two. Read More
Contrary to popular belief that brain changes begin to normalize immediately after ceasing alcohol consumption, a new study reveals damage to the brain continues during the first weeks of abstinence. Read More
A new study reports a biomarker for Alzheimer's disease could be detected with the help of neuroimaging technology. Read More
Researchers report children who underwent general anesthesia and surgery prior to the age of one showed decreased white matter volume and integrity. Read More
Greater hippocampal volume is not always a reliable predictor of learning and memory ability in older adults. Faster learning was only found in older adults who had both greater hippocampal volume and more uniform white matter connections to other parts of the brain. Read More
Researchers report prenatal exposure to PAH can contribute to offspring developing behavioral and cognitive problems due to disruptive effects on early brain development. Read More
Early life exposure to greenspace may result in beneficial structural changes in the developing brain, researchers report. The study found children who grew up in areas surrounded by greenspace had better working memory and were more attentive than those who lived in more urban environments. Read More
