A groundbreaking brain atlas maps nearly 680,000 cells to reveal how the human brain develops at the single-cell level. The discovery could transform Parkinson’s research by setting new standards for ...
Can the brain keep working when its architecture changes? Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have discovered that neurons located in the wrong place can still carry out their normal ...
Some parts of the body can recover from injury fairly rapidly. The cornea, for example, can heal from minor scratches within a single day. The human brain, however, is not one of these fast-healing ...
“Current automated STD methods perform well under controlled conditions but degrade sharply in low SNR or with unseen targets, while standalone BCI systems suffer from high false alarm rates. To ...
Dopamine neurons in the midbrain may, with aging, be increasingly susceptible to a vicious spiral of decline driven by fuel shortages, according to a study led by Weill Cornell Medicine (NY, USA) ...
Researchers at Duke-NUS Medical School have developed a detailed single-cell atlas of the developing human brain, offering a new reference point for evaluating lab-grown neurons used in Parkinson’s ...
ABSTRACT: Background: Scientific research has increasingly focused on studying the effects of substances on brain function. However, these studies often evaluate overall effects without identifying ...
ABSTRACT: Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the Substantia Nigra Pars Compacta, located in the midbrain.
Did you ever wonder why you suddenly crave something that you see someone else eating? Or, find yourself ordering the same thing someone else does at a restaurant? Often we have been reminded that ...
Researchers have long believed that neurons rely on glucose nearly entirely for fuel. The brain’s enormous energy requirements were presumed to be supplied by sugar alone, in contrast to muscle or ...
“Illusions are fun, but they are also a gateway to perception,” says Hyeyoung Shin, assistant professor of neuroscience at Seoul National University. Shin is the first author of a new study in Nature ...
