A research team has found olfaction may play an important role in motivating mammals to engage in voluntary exercise.

Researchers have focused on how animals assess the resource’s value and their opponent’s fighting ability, and found that emotions resulting from this drive animal behaviour.

A new study found in a large number of patients that tau secretion arises from tiny malfunctioning compartments inside the brain's neurons, associated with Alzheimer's.

On December 31, 2019, the first cases of a novel coronavirus were identified in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. Here, we curate a collection of news and content related to what has become the COVID-19 pandemic.

Technology Networks recently had the pleasure of speaking with Eppendorf Prize winner Christopher Zimmerman, PhD, to discover more about his research into drinking behavior.

In neuroscience research, imaging techniques are used ubiquitously to produce critical insights. Recently, sophisticated mapping, made possible by powerful elemental imaging techniques such as laser ablation (LA) in combination with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), has enabled studies of the distribution of different elements across an area of tissue.

Memory’s absence, amnesia, has profound implications for brain function and has been recognized as a neurological disorder for centuries. The neural underpinnings of amnesia remain a contentious and hotly debated topic. This article will examine these debates and the remaining challenges involved in understanding the neurobiological basis of amnesia.

To learn more about the PANDIS model, its aims, and how it can be used to help diagnose and treat patients suffering from a range of conditions spanning from cancers to “mystery chronic diseases”, Technology Networks spoke with PANDIS’s founders, Professor Gilles Guillemin and Catherine Stace.

An ambitious new research project powered by hitherto inaccessible techniques is investigating whether a crowded cellular environment might have a role to play in the origin of neurodegeneration.
