A group of researchers from KAIST in collaboration with the Yonsei University College of Medicine has applied deep learning techniques to autism diagnosis.

Researchers have built a new device that acts just like a brain cell.

New study reports that cognitive decline is not due to the Alzheimer’s hallmark.

The study was recently published in BBA Molecular Basis of Disease.

Researchers have created a machine-learning algorithm that can detect subtle signs of osteoarthritis, often missed by trained radiologists, on an MRI scan taken years before symptoms even begin.

A new study led by Zippora Brownstein, PhD, and Prof. Karen Avraham from the Sackler Faculty of Medicine at Tel Aviv University has found that 32 genes are responsible for inherited hearing loss in Israeli Jewish families.

By exploring the benefits of sport in memory and motor learning, scientists at UNIGE are opening up promising perspectives for school programs and in the prevention of Alzheimer’s disease.

A group of psychologists discovered that we see possible romantic partners as a lot more attractive if we have what the scientists call "a sexy mindset." Under the same condition we also tend to overestimate our own chances of romantic success.

Breaks in our DNA, which can occur spontaneously or result from irradiation or chemical insults, can lead to severe problems since they foster mutations and can ultimately lead to cancer. One of the main DNA repair pathways involves copying the missing information on the damaged DNA from the replicated sister chromatid. For this to occur, the two DNA molecules of sister chromatids need to come close together at the exact same genomic position. The team around Daniel Gerlich developed a method that solves this problem.

A new research study has revealed that individuals with type 2 diabetes who used metformin experienced slower cognitive decline with lower dementia rates than those who did not use the medication.
