Researchers have succeeded in restoring lost brain function in mouse models of stroke using small molecules that in the future could potentially be developed into a stroke recovery therapy.

Investigators have created computer-generated models to bridge the gap between 'test tube' data about neurons and the function of those cells in the living brain. Their study could help in the ...

Brain network changes: Meditation during the retreat reduced activity in parts of the brain associated with mental chatter, making brain function more efficient overall. Enhanced neuroplasticity: When ...

The brain’s hemispheres are specialized for efficiency. Modern neuroscience shows lateralization enhances function without ...

Declining brain function is a natural part of the aging process, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be delayed. A new study has found that physical activity can boost brain function for up to 24 hours and ...

For decades, researchers have attempted to pinpoint the specific areas of the brain responsible for human intelligence. A new ...

Now why would someone throw paint all over a perfectly good human brain? The good news is that this isn’t a paint splattered brain, but the colors are meaningful. This is a functional magnetic ...

Faulty brain circuits seen in Down syndrome may be caused by the lack of a particular molecule essential for the development and function of the nervous system, new research suggests. Restoring the ...

The results of research in mice suggest that a type of drug developed for treating cancer may hold promise as a new treatment for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The ...

You've probably heard blueberries called a superfood, but the latest research reveals just how remarkable they truly are for brain health. Consumption of wild blueberries for six months improves ...
