Researchers using high-resolution brain scans are finding that when hearing starts to slip, the brain does not simply “turn ...
Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers from Japan have ...
Researchers identify the Functional-Structural Ratio (FSR) as the biological link between age-related hearing loss and cognitive decline, offering a potential new biomarker for dementia risk.
Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...
In a recent study published in Science Advances, a group of researchers assessed whether dendritic spine head diameter in the temporal cortex is a better predictor of episodic memory performance in ...
A tiny version of a developing cerebral cortex – a brain region involved in thinking, memory and problem-solving – has been ...
For the first time, scientists have unraveled the structure of proteins in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. The findings provide clues into how these disease-causing proteins interact ...
The extreme mental and physical fatigue brought on by long COVID may be a result of structural changes in the brain, new research suggests. These observable changes not only promise to improve the ...
Previous studies have reported that the cerebellum, which is most well-known for coordinating the body’s movements, is also ...
