Precise mapping shows how brain injuries inflict long-term damage
Researchers have shown how forces acting on the brain during traumatic injury are linked to damage seen years after the initial trauma. The findings, from a cross-disciplinary team at Imperial College London, could be used to predict the severity of…

Researchers link cellular transport pathway to aggressive brain cancer
Researchers at McGill University have identified a new cellular pathway that limits the growth and spread of brain tumors by controlling the recycling of cell surface receptor proteins. The study, which will be published January 14 in the Journal of…

Mapping a life’s worth of changes in a mysterious brain structure
Until recently, scientists didn’t know much about perivascular spaces (PVS), fluid-filled regions in the brain involved in clearing waste and toxins—mainly because it’s tough to get a clear look at them using neuroimaging. But as technology evolves, researchers are finding…

A brain mechanism underlying ‘vision’ in the blind is revealed
Some people have lost their eyesight, but they continue to ‘see.’ This phenomenon, a kind of vivid visual hallucination, is named after the Swiss doctor Charles Bonnet, who described in 1769 how his completely blind grandfather experienced vivid, detailed visions…

Brain damage of patients with Covid-19
In an in-depth study of how COVID-19 affects a patient’s brain, National Institutes of Health researchers consistently spotted hallmarks of damage caused by thinning and leaky brain blood vessels in tissue samples from patients who died shortly after contracting the…

Research strongly suggests COVID-19 virus enters the brain
More and more evidence is coming out that people with COVID-19 are suffering from cognitive effects, such as brain fog and fatigue. And researchers are discovering why. The SARS-CoV-2 virus, like many viruses before it, is bad news for the…

Researchers develop low-cost, portable brain imaging scanner
When it comes to brain scans for assessing head trauma, detecting brain cancer, and performing numerous other tests, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the best option, but MRI scanners are costly, require special infrastructure, and are immobile. Now a team…
