New research identifies a promising strategy for correcting dopamine imbalances in the brain using a drug that blocks kappa ...

Summary: New neuroscience research highlights how verbal abuse in childhood can alter brain development and increase the risk of mental health issues later in life. Children who are routinely shamed, ...

Summary: New research shows that varied cognitive training, rather than repetitive tasks, helps older adults improve working memory. Participants who engaged in multiple types of memory exercises saw ...

Summary: New research shows that 40Hz sensory stimulation (GENUS) improves memory, enhances brain circuit connectivity, and increases new neuron growth in mice modeling Down syndrome. In the study, ...

Summary: A new study has revealed how two morphogens, WNT and Sonic Hedgehog, act as molecular “traffic cops,” directing early human brain development. Using a custom device and stem cell-derived ...

Summary: A new study reveals a strong correlation between diet and brain health. Analyzing dietary data and health indicators from 181,990 UK Biobank participants, the study found that a balanced diet ...

Summary: BrainBridge, a neuroscience and biomedical engineering start-up, has unveiled a revolutionary concept for a robotic head transplant system. This ambitious project aims to offer a new lease on ...

Summary: A new review explores the genetic factors influencing reproductive health, fertility, and life expectancy. Researchers identified 37 key genes linked to traits such as age at first childbirth ...

Summary: New research reveals that brain structure varies with reading ability, particularly in the left hemisphere. Better readers have distinct traits, including a larger anterior temporal lobe for ...

Summary: Staying up late harms mental health regardless of one’s natural sleep preference. Surveying nearly 75,000 adults, researchers discovered that both morning and night types who stayed up late ...

Summary: Researchers have developed a brain-computer interface that can synthesize natural-sounding speech from brain activity in near real time, restoring a voice to people with severe paralysis. The ...

Summary: A new study suggests that consciousness may be rooted in quantum processes, as researchers found that a drug binding to microtubules delayed unconsciousness in rats under anesthesia. This ...
