Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative condition that affects a significant proportion of older people ...

In AD, synaptic plasticity, the brain’s ability to regulate the strength of synaptic connections between neurons, is significantly disrupted. This worsens over time, reducing cognitive and memory ...

New research shows that low-intensity repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can restore key synaptic structures in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease.

Recent research highlights carnosic acid, found in rosemary and sage, as a potential weapon against Alzheimer's. Scientists ...

A recent research finding adds to evidence that brain inflammation is a major driver of neurodegenerative disorders such as ...

New research proposes a unified theory of brain function based on criticality—a state where the brain teeters between order ...

Our brains may work best when teetering on the edge of chaos. A new theory suggests that criticality a sweet spot between order and randomness is the secret to learning, memory, and adaptability. When ...

The world's first commercial hybrid of silicon circuitry and human brain cells will soon be available for rent.

A surprising discovery about how brain cells handle sugar could shift how scientists approach dementia and Alzheimer’s ...
