Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, often debilitating autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS).
Researchers have identified a previously overlooked neural pathway that helps control human hand and arm movements. The ...
Tufts University School of Medicine researchers developed imaging technology that records neuronal activity throughout the brain during the first weeks of recovery. They discovered that a head injury ...
Cryosleep’ remains the preserve of science fiction, but researchers are getting closer to restoring brain function after deep ...
Neuronal pathways originating from the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) of the brain participate in different adaptive behaviors, but which pathways are used for distinct adaptive strategies remains unclear ...
We become forgetful as we age. This is often seen as a universal truth, but in fact it is far from universal: some people remain incredibly sharp at 100 years old, while others experience memory loss ...
FAYETTEVILLE, GA, UNITED STATES, March 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Spinal cord injury often triggers a cascade of ...
Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...
Researchers identify PV neurons in the prefrontal cortex as the gatekeepers of drug addiction relapse, offering a new target for precision treatment.
Drug addiction carries an extremely high risk of relapse, as cravings can be reignited by minor stimuli even long after one has stopped using. Previously, this phenomenon was attributed to a decline ...
