New research published in Nature Genetics suggests that there is a genetic component for late-onset Parkinson's disease. Read More
A new study published in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience has proven that moderate exercise can help to enhance connectivity in brain circuits. Additionally, exercise can help to improve cognition and combat decline in brain functions associated with aging. Read More
Researchers at the UTMB, Galveston are calling for traumatic brain injury to be defined and managed as a chronic disease. Read More
New research points to a DNA sequence that causes the DUX4 gene to become more active in producing proteins that are toxic to muscle cells, leading to a form of muscular dystrophy. Read More
Scientists have found evidence linking pesticides to attention problems in children. Read More
This research shows that the loss of connections in the corpus collosum could be partly responsible for slower response times seen in older animals and humans due to too much crosstalk and confusion between the brain hemispheres. Read More
New brain research shows that the size of fish telencephalons was correlated with risk taking and timid behaviors. Fish with... Read More
UCL neuroscientists have shown that a single neuron, and even a single dendrite, can respond differently to unique sequences of input. Read More
UC Irvine researchers have identified the perforant path in humans with the diffusion tensor imaging technique. Read More
Deleting the enzyme PTEN allowed neurology researchers to regenerate corticospinal tract neurons after spinal cord injuries in rodents. Read More
Grid cells have been found in the presubiculum and parasubiculum of the rat brain. Read More
Researchers have developed a camera system that mimics the bee eye. The artificial bee eyes allow the researchers to take images that are believed to be similar to the bee's viewpoint. Read More
