Using brain gene expression maps from the Allen Human Brain Atlas, the researchers tested the degree to which Alzheimer’s risk genes explain the patterns of both actual and residual tau. This allowed ...

Visual auras, like those that occur in migraines, may be signs of small injuries to the brain’s visual cortex, according to a clinical trial at UC San Francisco that tracked the appearance of these ...

UC Berkeley scientists have developed a magnetic resonance imaging technique that tracks blood through the brain’s veins back to its source.

A brain blood clot, also known as a cerebral thrombosis or embolism, occurs when a clot blocks a blood vessel in the brain, interrupting blood flow and potentially leading to stroke or other ...

In the brain, not all blood flow is created equal. RIKEN researchers have developed a detailed cortical layer map of the blood vessels that weave through the brain of macaque monkeys. It reveals ...

Abstract Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is vital for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the brain. Many forms of orthostatic intolerance (OI) involve impaired regulation of CBF in the upright posture, ...

Movies are helping scientists map how the brain responds to audio and visual stimulation A new study tracked the brain areas that activated as people watched scenes from 'Home Alone' and other films.

The relationship between cerebral blood flow and the decline of cognitive function is poorly understood. Objective: To investigate the association between cerebral blood flow variation and decline of ...

Healthy blood vessels matter for more than just heart health. Vascular well-being is critical for brain health and potentially in addressing age-related cognitive decline and neurodegenerative ...
