Summary: A new study reveals that misleading information about depression is widespread, making it harder for people to grasp the causes of their distress. The study...
Summary: Researchers have found that sleep deprivation can hide, rather than erase, memories in mice, and that these memories can be restored using existing drugs. The...
Summary: Researchers have enhanced auditory processing in young mice by increasing inner ear synapses using neurotrophin-3. This study supports the hypothesis that synapse density impacts hidden...
Summary: Researchers discovered the serotonin 2C receptor in the brain plays a crucial role in regulating memory in both humans and animal models. This breakthrough offers...
Summary: Researchers developed a novel peptide, KS-133, to target cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia. By using a brain-targeting peptide, KS-487, they successfully transported KS-133 across the blood-brain...
Summary: A new study reveals how depression affects brain activity in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) of rats. Using a microelectrode array, researchers found increased theta frequency...
Summary: A new study reveals the role of the molecule KIBRA in forming long-term memories. Researchers found that KIBRA acts as a “glue,” binding with the...
Summary: Researchers discovered how the brain controls sensitivity to threats, influencing escape behavior in mice. The study found that inhibitory neurons in the periaqueductal gray (PAG)...
It took seven hours for neurosurgeons at London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital to fit this brain implant. ADVERTISEMENT A British teenager with severe epilepsy has become...
