An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a painless test that uses small sensors placed on the scalp to measure the brain's electrical activity. It provides a real-time readout of brain "waves"—rhythms ...

University of Rochester researchers have demonstrated a noninvasive method using BL-OG, or bioluminescent optogenetics, that harnesses light to activate neurons in the brain. The ability to regulate ...

A recent groundbreaking study published in Nature has opened a promising new chapter in the treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and other forms of brain injury,. Conducted by researchers from ...

Scientists have developed a geometric deep learning method that can create a coherent picture of neuronal population activity during cognitive and motor tasks across experimental subjects and ...

Youth with related behavior challenges may have trouble moving between different brain states, according to a new study from ...

A new bioluminescent tool allows neurons to glow on their own, letting scientists track brain activity without harmful lasers or fading signals. The advance makes it possible to watch individual brain ...

Additionally, this study only examined the brain structure characteristics in children with ADHD elucidated using harmonization." While the new findings will need to be validated on a larger scale, ...

Deep brain stimulation involves sending electrical signals to a specific brain area via surgically implanted electrodes.

Carrying too much body fat can have lasting effects on the brain, not to mention other organs. A new study shows that the ...
