Study finds new mechanism that encourages brain to self-repair after ische
Updated : 5 months, 2 weeks ago IST
Due to the brain's inability to recover after injury, patients frequently endure functional deterioration after an ischemic stroke. However, there is still a chance for recovery since neurons that are still alive can start up repair processes that can reduce or even undo the damage brought o

Tiny, flexible spinal probe system may lead to better therapies: Study
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
The spinal cord is more difficult to access and research than the brain. The difficulties posed by its mobility and anatomical structure have made it difficult to determine exactly how it acts.

Preclinical test indicates potential for treating neuropathic pain: Study
Updated : 5 months, 2 weeks ago IST
Researchers at the Burke Neurological Institute and Weill Cornell Medicine have completed a preclinical investigation on a non-opioid designer molecule that calms hyperactive pain-sensing neurons in the peripheral nervous system to treat chronic neuropathic pain. The results of the study are

New research links brain waves directly to memory
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
Neurons in the brain generate rhythmic patterns of electrical activity. One of the unanswered problems in neuroscience is what generates these rhythmic signals, known as oscillations. Researchers at the University of Arizona discovered that simply remembering experiences might trigger them,

Study reveals gene therapy treats chronic pain by dialing down sodium
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
According to a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), researchers at NYU College of Dentistry's Pain Research Centre have created a gene therapy that cures chronic pain by unintentionally controlling a particular sodium ion channel.

Do you know tracking brain waves can reduce post-op complications? Study f
Updated : 2 years, 8 months ago IST
When patients are put under general anaesthesia, their brain activity frequently slows as they fall asleep. Higher anaesthetic medication dosages can cause an even deeper state of unconsciousness called burst suppression, which is associated with cognitive deficits once the patient awakens.

Researchers find neurons linked to chronic stress
Updated : 2 years, 8 months ago IST
A set of nerve cells in the mouse brain have been shown to play a role in the development of unpleasant emotional states and long-term stress, according to researchers at Sweden's Karolinska Institutet. The neurons, which have been mapped using a variety of cutting-edge methods, also include

Study reveals how discovery of neurons allow to recognize others
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
The Centre for Cognition and Sociality (CCS) at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has revealed the finding of neurons that allow us to recognise others. The researchers observed that the neurons that deal with information connected with distinct persons are situated in the CA1 area of th
