Organoids that mimic the physiology and function of the cochlea have been developed, opening doors to a better understanding of – and potential treatments for – hearing loss.

Matching the speed of information delivery during a learning task to the natural tempo of the brain can help enhance learning, according to research from the University of Cambridge.

A new study shows that sleep medications increase the risk of dementia for people who are white. But the type and quantity of the medication may be factors in explaining the higher risk.

Videos that resemble real life and engage babies could be used to help them learn to count, reports new research from Rutgers University.

Researchers have conducted a study to better understand the effect of spinal cord stimulation on chronic pain and sleep.

If you have ever let your mind “wander”, you have relied on the brain’s default mode network (DMN). This network is important for using our short-term memory. Do changes in the DMN play a key role in the short-term memory loss seen in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD)?

Researchers have discovered that a potential new gene therapeutic approach may also be effective in treating patients living with other eye diseases in the future.

New research has identified that a layer of CD4+ T cells around the central nervous system acts as a reservoir for HIV during antiviral therapy, enabling a "rebound" of the virus when the treatment is stopped.

Editing healthy immune cells with CRISPR safely thwarts the brain's resistance to them, helping researchers to harness immune cell function to treat neurological conditions.

EPFL researchers have combined low-power chip design, machine learning algorithms, and soft implantable electrodes to produce a neural interface that can identify and suppress symptoms of various neurological disorders.
