OBJECTIVES It remains controversial whether selective neuronal ischaemic change develops in patients with occlusion of the large cerebral arteries. Previous studies have shown atrophy of the corpus ...

How the brain largely maintains its function when neurons are lost—this is what researchers at the University Medical Center Mainz, the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (FIAS) and Hebrew ...

MLD is a disorder of central and peripheral myelin that results from the absence of the enzyme arylsulfatase A. The disorder may present at any age, although the majority of cases occur in the first ...

Motor cortex articles from across Nature Portfolio The motor cortex is the region of the cerebral cortex including the primary motor, premotor and supplementary motor cortices that is responsible ...

Fluctuations in nonlinear systems can enhance the synchronization with weak input signals. Chaotic resonance (CR) is one of such phenomena, caused by a system-intrinsic chaotic fluctuation. CR is ...

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues within the body. MRI can help with viewing injuries, tumors ...

Intracortical brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) provide people with paralysis a means to control devices with signals decoded from brain activity. Despite recent impressive advances, these devices ...

Together, these findings underscore how individual mutations in the same gene can selectively perturb different aspects of brain function. One particularly intriguing discovery came from the K1431M ...
