After years of suffering, a patient with severe and untreatable depression has finally found relief with an experimental brain implant originally developed to help people with epilepsy, researchers in ...
Brain preserved in formaldehyde. — Gaetan Lee (CC BY 2.0) Brain preserved in formaldehyde. — Gaetan Lee (CC BY 2.0) Scientists have discovered a brain “pain switch” that prioritises survival needs ...
In a landmark study, scientists have identified a small group of brain cells that can completely reverse anxiety and depression in mice. This non-pharmacological approach involves rebalancing brain ...
Post-traumatic stress disorder is often described as a brain stuck in survival mode, with threat circuits firing long after the danger has passed. Now researchers are zeroing in on a specific neural ...
Your brain’s “stop eating” signal may come from an unexpected source. Researchers found that astrocytes—once thought to just support neurons—actually play a key role in controlling appetite. After a ...
Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons. For the first time, DZNE researchers have observed an ...
In a major brain science breakthrough, New Orleans-based researchers and collaborators have discovered a nerve signaling mechanism that takes place outside the cell, flipping on a 'pain switch.' This ...
