To simulate blood flow inside brain aneurysms, researchers from Japan have developed a computational method that combines 4D ...

It's been recognized for some time that Alzheimer's disease affects brain regions differently and that tau—a protein known to ...

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 ...

Nerves look blue in the reconstructed view of a genetically engineered mouse (left) whose neurons produce a fluorescent ...

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 ...

In a comprehensive Genomic Press Interview published in Brain Medicine, Dr. Michael C. Oldham shares his unconventional journey from advertising executive to computational neuroscientist and his ...

Neuroscience research. Learn how the brain's physical, chemical and electrical structure can affect everything from motivation and sensory perception to disease recovery.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flows through your central nervous system, serving multiple roles: it protects your brain, takes out the cellular trash, and even ...

Blood pressure is essential to life. Here, we explain how to take a blood pressure reading, what the readings mean, and how to prevent high blood pressure.
