Featured articles can cover neuroscience, brain research, regenerative medicine, psychology, genetics, robotics, neurology and many other cognitive science topics. Featured neuroscience articles are articles that we believe to be very important, or that our readers will most likely want to read. Featured articles usually include an image and tend to be shared more across the social networks.
Researchers comment on a new theory of human behavior in traditional societies and advocate for a new, fully integrated evolutionary theory of human behavior. Read More
Two to five years after birth, mothers of children on the autism spectrum have several significantly different metabolite levels than mothers of typically developing children. Read More
Those with eczema who produce immunoglobulin E in response to environmental allergens are more likely to experience chronic and acute itching. Read More
Lower white blood cell count associated with HIV infection was linked to decreased volume in the hippocampus and thalamus. Read More
Researchers have identified a pathway involving a protein called Rab35 in glioblastoma brain cancer. The study reports restoring the activity of Rab35 could have therapeutic benefits for those with glioblastoma. Read More
People diagnosed with schizophrenia have an increased risk of developing Parkinson's disease later in life, researchers report. The reason could be due to alterations in the brain's dopamine system cause as a result of dopamine receptor antagonists or neurophysiological changes associated with schizophrenia itself. Read More
Some of the T cell epitopes targeting myelin in monkeys were the same as those found in humans. Researchers say linking these specific cells opens the doors to developing antiviral therapies that could be useful to treat newly diagnosed cases of MS in humans. Read More
Protein hyper-interleukin-6, a "designer protein" that has to be produced via genetic engineering, enabled a paralyzed mouse to walk again. Read More
Neurons in the brainstem suppress unwanted movements during REM sleep in mice, a new study reports. Read More
An EEG study of couples embarking on romantic gestures, such as hugging and kissing, reveal positive emotions are mainly processed in the left hemisphere of the brain. Read More
A newly engineered compound prevents damage to myelin and nerve fibers by stimulating a protective response in cells that produce and maintain myelin. The compound has positive implications for the treatment of Multiple Sclerosis. Read More
