– These articles focus mainly on neurology research.
– What is neurology?
– Definition of neurology: a science involved in the study of the nervous systems, especially of the diseases and disorders affecting them.
– Neurology research can include information involving brain research, neurological disorders, medicine, brain cancer, peripheral nervous systems, central nervous systems, nerve damage, brain tumors, seizures, neurosurgery, electrophysiology, BMI, brain injuries, paralysis and spinal cord treatments.

Everyday Speech May Reveal Early Cognitive Decline

Researchers found that everyday speech timing — including pauses, fillers, and subtle patterns — strongly reflects executive function, a key cognitive system that supports memory and flexible thinking. Using AI to analyze natural speech, the study showed that these linguistic features can predict cognitive-test performance independent of age, sex, or education.

Stress Undermines Brain Circulation, Increases Dementia Risk

Researchers found that a rare class of neurons—type-one nNOS neurons—plays a central role in regulating brain blood flow and coordinating neural activity in mice. Removing these stress-vulnerable cells caused major drops in vessel oscillations and widespread reductions in electrical signaling, suggesting a crucial link between neuron loss, blood-flow decline, and brain-function impairment.

Why Alzheimer’s Patients Forget Loved Ones

Researchers have discovered that the heartbreaking moment when a person with Alzheimer’s no longer recognizes family may stem from the breakdown of perineuronal nets, protective structures that support social memory. In mice, the loss of these nets erased memory of familiar individuals while sparing object memory, mirroring early human symptoms.

Nano Tech Helps CBD Quiet Pain at the Source

A new study shows that CBD delivered through a nano-micelle system can cross the blood–brain barrier and produce rapid neuropathic pain relief. The formulation, called CBD-IN, helped mice within 30 minutes and avoided the motor and cognitive side effects often seen with conventional pain drugs.

Your Neighborhood Could Influence Your Risk of Dementia

Researchers found that living in a socioeconomically deprived neighborhood can harm brain health as early as midlife. People from these areas showed more signs of small-vessel brain damage, slower thinking skills, and poorer control of lifestyle factors such as blood pressure, obesity, and sleep.

Brain’s Immune Cells Found to Protect Against Alzheimer’s Damage

Researchers have uncovered how the brain’s immune cells, called microglia, can act as protectors rather than destroyers in Alzheimer’s disease. By lowering the immune regulator PU.1, microglia began expressing lymphoid-like receptors that reduced inflammation and preserved cognitive function in mouse models.

3D Brain Map Reveals How Inflammation Reawakens Developmental Genes

Researchers have developed the most detailed molecular map yet of how the brain develops and reacts to inflammation, revealing that disease processes can “reawaken” genes from early life. Using a new spatial tri-omics technique, the team tracked how gene activity, epigenetic changes, and protein production interact in specific brain regions.

BrainSTEM Atlas Maps Every Cell of the Developing Human Brain

Scientists have built one of the most comprehensive single-cell maps of the developing human brain. The new BrainSTEM framework analyzed nearly 680,000 fetal brain cells to chart their growth and interactions, offering a detailed reference for studying neuron development.

Antioxidant Defense System in the Brain Discovered

A new study identifies biliverdin reductase A (BVRA) as a crucial enzyme defending neurons from oxidative stress, acting independently of its traditional role in bilirubin production. Using genetically modified mice, researchers found that BVRA binds directly to NRF2, a master regulator of antioxidant defense, ensuring the activation of protective genes that maintain cellular health.

Long-Term Melatonin Use Linked to Higher Heart Failure Risk

A large-scale analysis of more than 130,000 adults with chronic insomnia found that long-term melatonin use—defined as one year or more—was associated with a striking increase in heart failure, hospitalization, and mortality risk. Using global health records, researchers found that melatonin users had about 90% higher odds of developing heart failure and were nearly twice as likely to die from any cause within five years.

How Chemotherapy Triggers Nerve Damage, and How to Stop It

A new study reveals that chemotherapy-induced nerve pain arises from a stress response in immune cells that triggers inflammation and neurotoxicity. Researchers found that activating a cellular stress sensor called IRE1α causes nerve damage and pain during chemotherapy, but blocking it prevents both in mice.

Daily Light and Sound Therapy May Slow Alzheimer’s Decline

A long-term study found that daily 40Hz light and sound stimulation may help slow cognitive decline in people with late-onset Alzheimer’s disease. After two years of treatment, participants maintained stronger cognitive performance than typical Alzheimer’s patients and showed reduced levels of tau protein, a key disease biomarker.
