A completed trial tests EGCG combined with diet, exercise, and cognitive training to slow decline in ApoE4 carriers with early warning signs.
New research shows single V1 neurons in the visual cortex track internal arousal states, directly predicting perception and reaction speed.
New research reveals how the brain selectively triggers learning only during meaningful errors — not random neural noise.
A landmark Nature Neuroscience study reveals how peripheral immune cells infiltrate the spinal cord in ALS, pointing to targeted immunotherapy.
A master autophagy regulator drops with age and in AD patients — restoring it in mice clears amyloid, reduces tau, and rescues cognition.
Huberman breaks down the brain circuits behind aggression and shares evidence-based tools — sunlight, sauna, ashwagandha — to dial it down.
UC Davis scientists created novel brain-healing molecules that activate key serotonin receptors tied to neuroplasticity — without triggering hallucinations.
LINE-1 retrotransposons act as alternative gene promoters in human stem cells, and silencing them shrinks cerebral organoids.
Scientists used stem cell-derived vesicles to deliver light-activated gene therapy to the brain without surgery, reversing cognitive decline in Alzheimer's mice.
A bibliometric analysis of 595 papers maps how glymphatic-Alzheimer's research has grown exponentially, pinpointing AQP4, sleep, and DTI-ALPS imaging as the hottest frontiers.
Cerebral hypoperfusion drives glymphatic dysfunction in systemic inflammation — and restoring blood flow with levosimendan reverses it.
HIE disrupts the glymphatic system in neonatal brains, impairing waste clearance and development with lasting consequences.
