The Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Suwon, Korea, is developing new neuroimaging approaches to explore biophysics, physiology, and biology, and ...

How do scientists peer into the brain to better understand what is happening, where, and why? By taking advantage of the brain’s electromagnetic properties or by sending radioactive markers into the ...

Around 10 million new cases of dementia are diagnosed globally every year, with Alzheimer’s disease accounting for 60-70% of ...

The human brain includes two hemispheres connected by a bundle of nerves. The left hemisphere controls movement for the right side of the body, while the right hemisphere directs the left side. The ...

In this experiment, ultrasound protocols comprising two distinct stimulation patterns by combining Low-Intensity Low-Frequency (LILF) 30Hz and 5Hz ultrasound were used. The first pattern, known as ...

Exercise has long been linked with stronger brains and reduced risk of dementia and other cognitive diseases. But new research suggests that older adults can significantly improve brain health with ...

New research shows that during moments of lost focus after poor sleep, the brain releases a wave of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)—the same cleansing process that normally occurs during deep sleep.

The brain does not need its sophisticated cortex to interpret the visual world. A new study published in PLOS Biology ...

Not only does a lack of sleep make you feel awful, research has shown it impairs the brain. What’s more, sleep loss over long periods can even increase risk for Alzheimer’s and other neurological ...
