A 20-year study found a brain game that boosts speed and splits attention helped prevent Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
Prior to his seizure, nothing in Byrd’s life would have led him to believe he had a brain tumor. He had a persistent mild ...
Machine learning is helping neuroscientists organize vast quantities of cells’ genetic data in the latest neurobiological cartography effort.
The brain’s hemispheres are specialized for efficiency. Modern neuroscience shows lateralization enhances function without dividing the mind.
A needle-thin, flexible brain implant is giving researchers a new way to interact with multiple brain regions simultaneously.
Therapeutic targeting of the AhR-Siglec-15 axis reveals potent efficacy against SHH medulloblastoma in preclinical models.
Siglec-15 has traditionally been understood as an immune checkpoint molecule, primarily located on the cell membrane where it suppresses T-cell function. However, the new research revealed that in SHH ...
Armed with new tools that reveal patterns of connection between brain areas, researchers are gaining clearer insights into how the brain regulates behavior.
To consolidate memories, our brains replay them during periods of rest as a kind of 'replay mode'. A new mouse study suggests ...
A new study reveals a hidden brain defense: base barrier cells. These cells form a molecular seal in the choroid plexus, acting as a gatekeeper against systemic inflammation and potential ...
Large animals face a constant battle against physics: they generate a lot of body heat that can be difficult to dump. For a dinosaur with a head as large and heavily insulated by bone and keratin as ...
