Study links tiny pieces of plastic in the environment to Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases
It is no secret that the plastics in our environment are making us ill, but recent research demonstrates the power of a specific type of plastic to destroy our brains and cause diseases such as Parkinson’s and Lewy body dementia. The study…
When do brains grow up? Research shows mouse and primate brains mature at same pace
Excitatory axon development in mouse and primate. a Cartoon depicting hypothetical models of excitatory axon development: left, axons increase their synapse frequency and/or right, axons make more branches. b, c Histograms of the number of synapses/µm and branches/µm, respectively, of excitatory axons at different…
Experimental deep brain stimulation offers hope to treat cognitive deficits after traumatic brain injuries
Five people who had life-altering, seemingly irreversible cognitive deficits following moderate to severe traumatic brain injuries showed substantial improvements in their cognition and quality of life after receiving an experimental form of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in a phase 1 clinical trial. The trial,…
In a first, human study shows how dopamine teaches our brain new tricks
More than just the ‘rewards’ chemical, dopamine helps our brains avoid negative experiences based on previous ‘punishment’ For the first time, dopamine regulation has been mapped in real time, deep inside the brains of three humans, revealing how the brain neurotransmitter plays an essential…
