Green staining indicates myelination in these mouse brain cross sections. The brain that received 40Hz light and sound stimulation (right) shows significantly more myelin in four brain regions (insets ...

Our body movements profoundly impact how our brain processes sensory information. Historically, it was believed that the brain's primary motor cortex played a key role in modulating sensory ...

Scientists report that gamma frequency light and sound stimulation preserves myelination in mouse models and reveal molecular mechanisms that may underlie the benefit. Early-stage trials in ...

We don't usually realize it, but every word we speak depends on a series of complex brain processes working behind the scenes ...

Bright staining highlights VIP-expressing interneurons in this coronal cross-section of a mouse brain. The neurons may help drive glymphatic clearance of amyloid via the release of peptides. Studies ...

Researchers identify the anterior cingulate cortex as a "dial" for autonomic arousal, offering new insights into Parkinson's ...

The effects of spinal cord injuries are complex and multifaceted. People lose not only the ability to control the movement of their limbs, but also the ability to receive sensory feedback from them.

A randomised controlled trial published in The BMJ looks at accelerated continuous theta burst stimulation (a-cTBS) targeting left primary motor cortex for children with autism spectrum disorder. Prof ...

New studies reveal how the brain reorganizes its maps of the body in response to sensory changes and repeated experiences. The somatosensory cortex can undergo sweeping remapping after sensory loss, ...

Discovery of Brain-Body Connection Offers Clues for Parkinson’s and Alcohol Use Disorder When danger lurks, instinct keeps us ...
