A revolutionary digital assessment that measures brain chemistry in just three minutes has been validated against direct neuroimaging for the first time, offering new possibilities for early detection of cognitive decline and dementia. The breakthrough research demonstrates that a self-administered computerised test can accurately reflect levels of acetylcholine, a crucial neurotransmitter whose decline signals cognitive […]
Researchers at UC Davis have demonstrated the first brain-computer interface that directly translates neural activity into synthesised speech in real-time, allowing a man with severe ALS to communicate naturally with immediate audio feedback rather than text-based approaches.
Scientists have discovered a novel mechanism by which immune cells targeting gut bacteria can infiltrate the brain and cause neuroinflammation through molecular mimicry. The research reveals how intestinal inflammation promotes the migration of microbiota-specific T cells into the central nervous system, where they mistakenly attack brain proteins.
Researchers have discovered that theta brain waves play a crucial role in integrating visual lip movements with speech sounds during memory formation. The study demonstrates how disrupting the natural synchronisation between these audiovisual cues affects neural oscillations in both the neocortex and hippocampus, potentially impacting speech memory accuracy.
A revolutionary multidimensional framework for characterising acute traumatic brain injury is set to replace the outdated Glasgow Coma Scale-based classification system. The new Clinical, Biomarker, Imaging-Modifiers (CBI-M) approach integrates blood biomarkers, advanced neuroimaging, and patient-specific factors to provide clinicians with unprecedented diagnostic precision for the first 24 hours post-injury.
In a Genomic Psychiatry interview, Professor Barbara Franke reveals how her revolutionary interdisciplinary approach is transforming ADHD research. Her innovative methodology combines cutting-edge genomics, experimental models, and international collaboration to decode biological pathways from genetic variations to behavioural changes, offering unprecedented insights for personalised neurodevelopmental treatments.
New research integrates findings from neuroscience, music, and psychology to support Neural Resonance Theory (NRT), which suggests musical experiences arise from natural oscillations in the brain that synchronise with rhythm, melody, and harmony. Rather than merely processing musical input, our brains physically resonate with music, explaining its profound emotional and physical effects.
A groundbreaking imaging study reveals how pleasurable music activates the brain’s natural opioid receptors, providing first direct evidence that music taps into the same neural reward networks used for essential survival activities like eating and reproduction.
In a pioneering study examining the relationship between sleep patterns and adolescent brain development, researchers have revealed that young people who sleep longer and go to bed earlier show improved brain structure, neural connectivity, and cognitive performance compared to their peers with later bedtimes and shorter sleep duration – though even the best sleepers fall […]
Two neuroscientists have been awarded the prestigious Brain Prize 2025 for their groundbreaking discoveries showing how neural activity in the brain can promote cancer development, opening new avenues for glioma treatment.
