MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

In a short talk at Caltech, physicist Richard Feynman laid out a vision of manipulating and controlling atoms at the tiniest ...

A new study suggests that dementia may be driven in part by faulty blood flow in the brain. Researchers found that losing a ...

Peanuts could be doing more than satisfying a mid-afternoon craving. New research suggests they may also help support brain health in older adults, improving blood flow to key areas of the brain and ...

Peanuts are considered a healthy snack due to their high content of plant-based protein, minerals, vitamins, and valuable unsaturated fatty acids. Their consumption can support the function of the ...

As part of the yearlong celebration of 150 years of Biological Sciences at Purdue, we are honored to welcome Dr. Massimo Scanziani, Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator and Professor at the ...

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), an ocean current system that transports heat from the tropics to the North Atlantic, plays a vital role in regulating the global climate. Most ...

Summary: Researchers found that a rare class of neurons—type-one nNOS neurons—plays a central role in regulating brain blood flow and coordinating neural activity in mice. Removing these ...

A major international study by the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University finds CSF movement on MRI can predict dementia years before symptoms, outperforming traditional cardiovascular risks ...

Doctors have long been as puzzled as their patients have been alarmed when some unaccustomed exercise causes not only numbness in an arm but faintness and even temporary blindness. Now artery ...

A major international study has uncovered a new biological clue that could help predict dementia long before memory problems arise. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University ...
