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.
Earworms, those songs that get stuck in your head, may help strengthen memories of music and life events, a new study reports.
Elderly monkeys treated with CpG ODN had 59% fewer deposits of Alzheimer's related plaques in their brains compared to those who did not receive the treatment. The treatment also helped improve cognitive function and slow the progression of Alzheimer's symptoms.
A review of Alzheimer's research papers finds news media is more likely to report on breakthroughs if the study's authors omit a reference to mice in their title. Papers that acknowledge mice in their title receive less media coverage. Omitting mice from a paper's title generates twice the number of tweets than ones that mention the animals.
Scientists are calling for greater support for neuroscience research in Africa. With the world's largest genetic diversity, researchers say Africa is vital to help progress neuroscience and brain disease research.
Findings from a mouse study reveal specific cells and proteins that control the sneeze reflex.
Speaking without a facemask in confined spaces poses the biggest risk for spreading SARS_CoV_2, the virus responsible for COVID-19.
Blocking hippocampal STAT3 in those with alcohol use disorder may alleviate symptoms of depression associated with withdrawal.
Neuroinflammation may be a key player in the pathological brain changes produced as a result of chronic opioid use. Microglia is likely responsible for the majority of the changes.
A study of patients with polymicrogyria sheds new light on the role the ATP1A3 gene plays in early brain development.
Most strains of bacteria in the microbiome are persistent within families and geographical regions, with the chance for a strain persisting up to a year at 90%.
A new model of Alzheimer's progression highlights the link between glial cells, toxic protein buildup, and neurodegeneration.
