What is neuroscience? Neuroscience is the scientific study of nervous systems. Neuroscience can involve research from many branches of science including those involving neurology, brain science, neurobiology, psychology, computer science, artificial intelligence, statistics, prosthetics, neuroimaging, engineering, medicine, physics, mathematics, pharmacology, electrophysiology, biology, robotics and technology.
DDT exposure causes sodium channels to remain open, leading to increased neural firing and an increased release of amyloid beta peptide. Blocking the channels with tetrodotoxin reduces the toxic amyloid protein by increasing the production of the amyloid precursor protein.
Consuming green vegetables and adding a daily chlorophyllin supplement helps alleviate symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease, researchers report. Additionally, chlorophyllin supplements help significantly reduce mortality risks associated with IBD.
Converting skin cell samples into neurons helps researchers gain a better understanding of the mechanisms of Huntington's disease.
A new musical test can help to detect cognitive decline in old age.
A new study contradicts previous findings that suggest misophonia is caused by a supersensitive connection between the auditory cortex and orofacial motor control areas of the brain.
For smokers, the first cigarette of the day is often accompanied by a cup of coffee. Researchers say this may be more than a habit, finding chemical compounds in roasted coffee beans may help quell the effects of morning nicotine cravings.
Pre-school-aged children with better vocabulary and attention skills before they begin school are more likely to perform better in an educational setting than their peers with less well-developed vocabulary and attention skills.
Modern pesticides damage the nervous system of honeybees, making it difficult for them to fly in a straight line. The impaired optomotor response lowers the ability of affected bees to forage and pollinate flowers.
Young people who consume "cheat meals", or meals that break a normal diet as a treat, are more likely to suffer from eating disorders, a new study reports.
In humans, microglia develop in different ways, undergoing growth patterns that go up and down, creating waves throughout our brain development.
Study reveals hydrogen peroxide reacts to EGFR in the skin, assisting in wound healing and nerve cell regeneration.
