Research reveals that traumatic brain injuries could heighten the risk of Alzheimer’s disease
Brain aging may hold the key to predicting Alzheimer’s risk
Research reveals advanced brain aging in older adults correlates with cognitive decline and Alzheimer's risk, highlighting the need for early intervention.
Researchers develop first-of-its-kind therapy to enhance heart repair after a heart attack
Scientists at the Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at UCLA have developed a first-of-its-kind experimental therapy that has the potential to enhance heart repair following a heart attack, preventing the onset of heart failure.
Mechanisms of neurogenesis after stroke revealed
Researchers at the University of Freiburg have studied what happens immediately after a stroke in the stem cell niche known as the subventricular zone, using a mouse model.
Can Sound Waves Treat Depression?
Ultrasound is already used for diagnosis and therapy. Recent studies have found it also to be a safe, effective, and rapid treatment for depression.
Researchers create mini-brains to study autism and test new treatments
Using stem cells generated from patients with a rare and severe form of autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability, Scripps Research scientists have grown personalized "mini-brains" (or organoids) to study the disorder in new detail.
Immunotherapy may be an effective treatment strategy for heart failure
A new study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis suggests that a type of immunotherapy -; similar to that approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat inflammatory conditions such as arthritis -; also may be an effective treatment strategy for heart failure.
Brain difference tied to autism found in living people for 1st time
