An electroencephalogram (EEG) study of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) identified a neural signal that may help explain the …
Seeing schizophrenia: X-rays shed light on neural differences, point toward treatment
Schizophrenia, a chronic, neurological brain disorder, affects millions of people around the world. It causes a fracture between a person’s …
Researchers reveal neural markers of sequential working memory deficits in de novo Parkinson’s disease
A multi-institutional research team has demonstrated that hyper-activation and weakened functional connectivity of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) are neural markers …
Drug stimulation of neural stem cell repair leads to promising impact on treatment of childhood brain injury
Through a cross-species study of metformin, a common drug used to treat Type 2 diabetes, a team of researchers and …
A perspective on the study of artificial and biological neural networks
Evolution, the process by which living organisms adapt to their surrounding environment over time, has been widely studied over the …
Your brain has ‘landmarks’ that drive neural traffic and help you make hard decisions
Brain regions exchange information by sending and receiving signals through a network of nerve connections. This exchange is crucial to …
Scientists identify a novel neural circuit mediating visually evoked innate defensive responses
