Scientists are raising concerns about free-living amoebae, resilient microbes that can survive in water systems and enable ...

Physical gel models and numerical simulations have been created to study ferret brain gyrification and cortical malformations, while comparisons with human phenotypes aim to link genetics and brain ...

Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has a unique “connectivity fingerprint” tied to its role in cognition, from ...

A new study identifies molecular factors that promote small vessel disease—and an active drug that can restore impaired vascular functions.

In a recent review published in the journal Cell Metabolism, a group of authors explored how Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonism shapes the neurovascular unit (NVU), potentially linking ...

The connection between physical movement and brain function has emerged as one of neuroscience’s most significant discoveries. The human brain, despite representing only 2% of body weight, consumes ...
