In Plain Sight: Study Compares Performance of Humans Versus Neural Networks in Visual Searches
2017-09-26 18:18:30-04
Researchers report humans often miss objects in plain sight, especially if the size is inconsistent with the rest of the scene.

Brain Cells That Control Appetite Identified
2017-09-27 11:48:49-04
Recent findings from University of Warwick researchers could help find new treatments to control eating habits that lead to obesity. Researchers discovered tanycytes detect amino acids from food and directly 'tell' the brain when we feel full. Certain food, such as chicken, lentils and avocados, activate tanycytes and make us feel fuller quicker.

Migraine With Aura May Increase Stroke Risk
2017-09-27 11:52:29-04
A new study published in Brain reports an increased risk of stroke in those who suffer from migraines with aura, but found no evidence of heightened stroke risk for people who suffered from migraines alone.

Brain Disconnections May Contribute to Parkinson's Hallucinations
2017-09-27 11:56:38-04
Researchers have identified functional connectivity problems in brain regions associated with visual processing and attention in Parkinson's patients who experience visual hallucinations.

Unlocking the Mysteries of Memory, and Potentially Enhancing It
2017-09-27 12:01:20-04
Researchers have identified a compound that appears to enhance long term memory.

Anxious Moms May Give Clues About How Anxiety Develops
2017-09-27 12:04:47-04
According to researchers, babies whose mothers were more anxious spent longer focusing on environmental threats than those whose moms were more relaxed.

Pass the Salt: Mapping the Neurons That Drive Salt Cravings
2017-09-27 14:47:26-04
Researchers have identified a group of neurons that respond to sodium deficiency and drive the need to consume salt.

Epigenetics of Addiction: Untangling Relapse and Addiction in the Brain
2017-09-27 14:54:38-04
A new study looks at the epigenetic factors that contribute to drug addiction and influence relapse.

Researchers Uncover Brain's Filing System for Storing Experiences
2017-09-27 14:57:59-04
A new study from NYU reveals how our brains organize experiences based on their similarities.

What Happens When Nerve Cells Stop Working?
2017-09-27 15:01:43-04
A new study investigates what happens during micro-failures in neural communication and looks at potential methods of preventing long term damage.

Modeling Brain Connections to Understand Parkinson's Disease
2017-09-27 15:06:07-04
Researchers have created computer models of the neural connections in both health brains and brains of people suffering from Parkinson's disease.

Back From the Brink: How Cells Recover From the Verge of Programmed Death
2017-09-27 16:03:04-04
A new study in JCB reveals the mechanisms behind anastasis, a process that allows cells to recover from the brink of programmed cell death.

Battling Belly Fat: Specialized Immune Cells Impair Metabolism in Aging
2017-09-27 16:07:05-04
Researchers reveal how the macrophages become inflamed as we age and prevent neurotransmitters from functioning correctly.

That Cup of Coffee May Not Relieve Parkinson's Symptoms
2017-09-27 16:11:13-04
According to a new Neurology study, caffeine may not have the beneficial effects for Parkinson's symptoms as previously reported.
