Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a traumatic event that can lead to neurodegeneration. Neuronal damage in the primary motor cortex (M1) can hinder motor function recovery after SCI. However, the exact ...

The primary motor cortex (MOp) is an important site for motor skill learning. Interestingly, neurons in MOp possess reward-related activity, presumably to facilitate reward-based motor learning. While ...

A recent large-scale study published in Science Advances has revealed a connection between genetic variations associated with ...

From Don Henley to Karen Carpenter, we're running through the best singing drummers in history. From soft rock to pop and ...

and that motor processes may be modulated by inputs from regions such as anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) or the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) to the basal ganglia and thalamus. In each of these studies, ...

Researchers have discovered that positive emotions enhance perceptual memories during sleep, particularly in the non-REM stage.

The barrel cortex consists of the regions of the primary somatosensory cortex that receive input from the whiskers via the thalamus. Barrel cortex is organized into cylindrical columns of neurons ...

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science (CBS) have uncovered how perceptual memories linked to positive emotions, ...

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science (CBS) in Japan have uncovered how perceptual memories linked to positive ...

Scientists have confirmed that microplastics from everyday items are not only making their way into our bodies. They’re also slipping past the brain’s protective barrier, embedding deep into the ...

Physical Address: We serve patients ACROSS SOUTH AFRICA. We have advisors covering the Eastern Cape and Garden Route . Our ...
