Using machine vision, researchers have been able to reliably link five emotional states, and even the relative strength of these states, to the facial expressions of mice.

Some researchers are saying that it's time for regulators, scientists, and the public to "revisit drugs that were once used but fell out of use because of political machinations, especially the war on drugs."

Currently, the only way to measure pressure inside the skull, formally called intracranial pressure (ICP), is by using invasive techniques that insert a catheter or sensor. Researchers have been hunting for better ways of measuring ICP. The latest proposed solution can predict ICP by monitoring resonance frequencies within the brain.
