Study sheds light on DNA methylation related to sleep deprivation in those with shift-work disorder. Read More
Brain organoids, or mini-brains, created from human stem cells appear to develop in much the same way as a human brain. The organoids follow an internal clock that guides their maturation in sync with the timeline for human brain development. Read More
Injecting a patient's own bone marrow derived stem cells significantly improved motor function within weeks in those with spinal cord injuries. Read More
A new genetic study reveals the evolution of longevity and larger brains in capuchin monkeys. Read More
An antibody called HAE-4 targets APOE and removes Alzheimer's related amyloid plaques in mouse models. The antibody improves blood vessel function in the brain without raising the risk of brain bleeds. Read More
Using new imaging technology, researchers find cellular clocks in a given organ can be synchronized without the intervention of external signals. Read More
The circadian CLOCK gene in the nucleus accumbens shell plays a crucial role in binge drinking behaviors in mouse models. Read More
FOXO3, a gene linked to longevity in humans, protects neural stem cells from the negative effects of stress. Read More
Researchers launch the first-in-human phase 1 clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of a gene therapy which will deliver BDNF to the brains of those with Alzheimer's and mild cognitive impairment. Read More
Couples with the CD38 CC genetic variant reported higher levels of trust and marriage satisfaction. Read More
Higher levels of the GFAP protein in the blood could be used to diagnose Alzheimer's disease decades before symptoms appear. Read More
A genetic mutation linked to autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders was associated with marked sleep disorders in fruit fly models. The findings add to the evidence that sleep disruptions are linked to early neurodevelopmental processes. Read More
