Researchers at St. Petersburg University have developed an efficient way to detect a crucial immunity biomarker—neopterin—in the blood using nanotechnology and a laser. Neopterin is a nucleotide whose blood levels rise sharply in cases of viral infections, autoimmune or oncological…
Researchers from the NeuroAD group (Neuropathology of Alzheimer’s Disease) within the Department of Cell Biology, Genetics and Physiology at the University of Málaga, also affiliated with IBIMA–BIONAND Platform and CIBERNED, have made a pioneering breakthrough in the fight against this…
Presbycusis is a prevalent form of age-related hearing loss that also hinders speech recognition. While scientists have linked hearing loss to an increased risk of cognitive decline, the biological “bridge” between the two has remained unclear. Now researchers at Tiangong…
How you take probiotics can affect their impact on the brain. A study from Örebro University points to new possibilities for personalized approaches, depending on whether the primary aim is, for example, to improve memory or reduce depression. The research…
Silent clapping, often referred to as “jazz hands,” is becoming popular as a way to make events more neurodivergent friendly. A new study from Karolinska Institutet shows that both neurodivergent and neurotypical people are generally positive towards the practice, although…
A team of researchers from the SABIEN group at the ITACA Institute of the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) has led an international study that comprehensively analyzes the use and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units…
Clinical neurophysiology examinations include electroencephalography, sleep and vigilance studies, as well as nerve conduction recordings. Interpretation of these recordings is largely taught during clinical work, using the same devices and software that are employed in everyday practice.
An international study led by researchers from the Sant Pau Research Institute (IR Sant Pau) shows that advanced use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows much more accurate identification of patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD).…
New research from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry and Masonic Cancer Center is providing important new insights into the structure of a human virus that causes blood cancer. In their study published in Nature Communications, researchers analyzed human…
The start of the year often comes with attempts at big life changes that we’re hoping will make us feel more grounded, fulfilled or in control. Maybe you’ve decided it’s time to change careers, move overseas or run a marathon.
