A new study suggests that the network connection between nerve cells in the spinal cord seems to play a critical role in the development of the severe disease ALS.

Using a brain-training app helps people eat less junk food and lose weight, new research suggests.

A new algorithm could be an important step toward adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS). The algorithm removes a key hurdle that makes it difficult for DBS systems to sense brain signals while simultaneously delivering stimulation.

A new study analyzing the association between an individual’s genetics (genotype) and their observable characteristics resulting from the interaction of genetics and the environment (phenotype), contributes new knowledge to the understanding of human complex traits and diseases.

A simulation of a robotic hand implemented on the EBRAINS research infrastructure is beginning to perform human-like digit configurations.

A massive genome-wide association study (GWAS) of genetic and health records of 1.2 million people from four separate data banks has identified 178 gene variants linked to major depression, a disorder that will affect one of every five people during their lifetimes.

A new study of duetting songbirds from Ecuador, the plain-tail wren (Pheugopedius euophrys), has offered an explanation of the mysterious connection between successful performing duos.

A team has produced an app called Significant Otter that allows couples to communicate with each other based on their sensed heart rate.

Intermittent Fasting is an effective means of improving long term memory retention and generating new adult hippocampal neurons in mice

Scientists have recorded blood oxygen levels in the hippocampus and provided experimental proof for why the area is vulnerable to damage and degeneration, a precursor to Alzheimer’s disease.
