New findings point to five genetic regions linked to the onset of migraines. The study provides new information about the cause and biological triggers which underlie migraine attacks.

– 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.
Researchers reveal the Bace1 protein, well known for its role in Alzheimer's disease, controls spindle development in muscles and leads to impaired movement when absent.
A new study finds almost 300,000 stroke survivors yearly will develop PTSD as a result of their health scare.
A new study identifies a receptor which could be key to preventing epilepsy following a prolonged period of seizures.
Researchers have discovered a compound which could counter Parkinson's disease in two ways at once.
A long-term study suggests deep brain stimulation has good success rates and lasting benefits for patients with hereditary dystonia.
Researchers discover by looking at amyloid-beta and tau independently that the interaction between the proteins could be the key to the cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer's disease. As the interaction between the two proteins increased, the progression of Alzheimer's worsened.
Researchers discover Diapocynin, a synthetic molecule derived from apocynin, protects neurobehavioural function in transgenic mice with Parkinson's disease symptoms. The molecule helps prevent deficits in motor coordination.
A new study examines the relationship of fMRI maps of the brain's resting state with the brain's underlying neurological and anatomical structure.
Performing post-mortem staging of the brains and spinal cord tissue of patients with ALS, researchers discover the neurodegenerative disease could progress from one start point in the CNS to other regions of the brain and spinal cord.
A new study has discovered the distribution of white matter abnormalities found in some patients with mTBI closely resemble those seen in early Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers show memory pathology in older mice can be reversed by blocking the activity of a specific receptor in the brain. Blocking the B1R receptor helps recover memory and cerebrovascular function.
