Simon Fraser University scientists are embarking on a new study to discover what makes some people more resilient to brain ...

Understanding brain structure is a central challenge in neuroscience. Although brain structure changes throughout life and is linked to both aging and neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's ...

As people age, structural brain changes influence their ability to adapt to the environment. New from eNeuro, Tatiana Wolfe and colleagues at the University of Arkansas characterized changes in the ...

Researchers examined anatomy of neurons from humans, mice and fruit flies. They discovered that the cellular structure of the brain is at a critical point, poised between two phases. New insights ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain's wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

A new study has found that psychopaths show structural changes in particular areas of the brain that deal with things like impulse control and emotional regulation. This improved understanding may ...

A large international study reports no overlap between the biological signatures of early depression and psychosis.

Led by physician-scientist Josef Parvizi, researchers from Stanford Medicine recently uncovered the shocking role of a tiny structure known as the anterior precuneus (aPCu)– which plays a key role in ...

Researchers have found that the size of the amygdala—a region of the brain involved in processing emotions—could be linked to ...

The extreme mental and physical fatigue brought on by long COVID may be a result of structural changes in the brain, new research suggests. These observable changes not only promise to improve the ...
