From a study that analyzed brain images of more than 2,500 people with Parkinson's disease in 20 different countries, scientists were able to identify patterns of neurodegeneration and create metrics ...
Mount SInai researchers identified the cortical amygdala – an olfactory cortical structure – as a key brain region in ...
The default mode network (DMN) is a set of interconnected brain regions known to be most active when humans are awake but not ...
In “Cerebral Entanglements,” Allan J. Hamilton argues that new imaging technologies give us unprecedented access — with ...
By creating a new metric, researchers envision the possibility of diagnostic and treatment advances for the disease, which is estimated to affect about 4 million people worldwide.
