Many unique groups of neurons connected inside and across crucial areas of the brain aid in learning, remembering, and retrieving memories. A recent study led by the universities of Bristol and Heidelberg showed that if these neuronal assemblies fail to sync up at the correct time, memories
A study on whether replacing missing teeth with fixed prosthesis may protect against cognitive decline was presented at the AADOCR's 52nd Annual Conference & Exposition, which was held in conjunction with the CADR's 47th Annual Meeting.
Preterm newborns do not habituate to pain in the same way that full-term infants, children, and adults do, according to a study conducted by UCL (University College London) experts.
A Duke Health research team has uncovered a collection of biomarkers that might help determine whether pancreatic cysts are likely to develop into cancer or stay benign.
An abrupt drop in blood pressure and body temperature is a key feature of the severe allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis, causing people to faint and, if untreated, potentially die. That response has long been attributed to blood vessel dilation and leakage. However, in a mouse study, res
Understanding the factors that promote the growth of beneficial bacterial species known as "good" bacteria in the gut may enable medical interventions that promote gut and overall human health. Yale researchers have discovered a novel mechanism by which these bacteria colonise the gut in a n
Personalization of cancer treatments has long been a goal--finding the right drugs that work for a patient's specific tumour based on specific genetic and molecular patterns. Many of these targeted therapies are highly effective, but they are not available for all cancers, including NSCLCs w
Backed up by 40 years of research, well-being expert Professor Simon L. Dolan PhD says that leaders with low self-esteem are most likely to pass on stress to their teams.
Scientists from the University of Utah Health have corrected abnormal heart rhythms in mice by restoring healthy levels of a protein that heart cells require to connect with one another. GJA1-20k is a protein that is underproduced in people with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, a genetic condi
The study, conducted at MU's Roy Blunt NextGen Precision Health Building, identified the western diet-induced microbial and metabolic contributors to liver disease, advancing our understanding of the gut-liver axis and, as a result, the development of dietary and microbial interventions for
