Ultrahigh resolution, high-speed imaging of fruit fly brains has allowed University of Oregon scientists to capture mechanical motions that stem cells use to make neurons, the cells that make up the brain.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | University Research | University of OregonUsing high-resolution imaging and 3D computer modeling, a University of Oregon research team has found that the branching arms of neurons weave through space in a way that balances their need to connect to other neurons with the costs of doing so.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | University Research | University of OregonBU neuroscientists are working to understand which parts of the brain are used to process sensory information and remember different skills.
University Research | Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Boston UniversityThanks to a $700,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, a group of Michigan State University researchers are working on ways robot-assisted learning can help patients improve common daily activities.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Michigan State UniversityUW researchers report that in a sample of more than 400 6- to 12-month-old infants, those who were later diagnosed with autism were more likely to have had difficulty falling asleep. This sleep difficulty was associated with altered growth trajectories in the hippocampus.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | University of WashingtonAccording to a new study led by Michigan State University, a larger hippocampus, a curved, seahorse-shaped structure embedded deep in the brain, does not always reliably predict learning and memory abilities in older adults.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Michigan State UniversityConcussions are more than twice as prevalent among college students than previously believed and significantly more likely to occur off the playing field than on, according to a CU Boulder study.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | University of Colorado BoulderA new study from Michigan State University researchers on a rare genetic disease provides insights into autism, epilepsy and cognitive impairment.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Michigan State UniversityResearch from Michigan State University could make daily decisions for professionals who work with children with autism faster and more effective.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Michigan State UniversityStanford University has found a link between levels of “bad” cholesterol at birth and subsequent childhood behavior could help identify and treat people who are prone to experiencing depression and other mental difficulties.
