For the first time ever, stem cells from umbilical cords have been converted into other types of cells, which may...
Researchers propose four new human rights laws that could help protect against exploitation and privacy loss in the age of neurotechnology.
New research looks at the growing interest in brain stimulation devices, and reports regulating them may prove to be tricky.
CORDIS reports two US based biotech companies have been granted ethical permission to attempt to regenerate the brains of people declared clinically dead from TBI.
Researchers have found significant differences in brain development in infants as young as six months old who later develop autism,...
Cognitive function may be a better indicator of the impact of aging on an economy than age-distribution, with chronological age...
Researchers at ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich identify a new method of unerringly detecting the presence of pathophysiological...
Brain-computer interfaces are currently being used to assist those with neuromuscular disorders in regaining everyday functions such as mobility and communication. The military is developing BCI technology to aid members in rapid response to threats. Researchers investigate the ethical questions of using neurotech such as BCI on the battle field.
Researchers question the ethical implications of using neuroscience techniques for legal cases.
Researchers believe they have found a link between the volume of one's cerebellum and general intelligence.
Researchers discover that changes in bioelectric signals cause tadpoles to grow eyes in back, tail For the first time, scientists...
Researchers can control the behavior of monkeys by using pulses of blue light to very specifically activate particular brain cells. The findings represent a key advance for optogenetics, a state-of-the-art method for making causal connections between brain activity and behavior. Researchers say that similar light-based mind control could likely also be made to work in humans for therapeutic ends.
