Canine cancer vaccine program shows early promise
It wasn't publicized, other than by word of mouth, and still the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine was overwhelmed with requests. view more (2006-01-27)
Fetal brain imaging
A modified technique that uses the eyes as the line of reference means a 50 percent reduction in the time necessary to take MRI images of the fetal brain. view more (2005-10-03)
Discovery of novel nerve cell modulator offers potential for mood disorders, epilepsy treatments
The discovery of a novel molecular switch that powerfully modulates nerve cell activity offers the potential for new mood disorder and epilepsy treatments, University of California, Irvine researchers report. view more (2007-08-06)
Unraveling where chimp and human brains diverge
Six million years ago, chimpanzees and humans diverged from a common ancestor and evolved into unique species. view more (2006-11-14)
Cell's fight against cancer revealed
If anything in cancer biology can be likened to a cage match, this is it: the battle inside the cell walls between LTag, "The Most Amazing Molecule in the Universe," and p53, "The Guardian of the Genome." view more (2006-09-01)
Brain memory area modifies its wiring diagram during the female cycle
Researchers at Northwestern University and Columbia University have found that "wiring" in female rat brain memory area expands and retracts in relation to the amount of estrogen present during the estrous/menstrual cycle. view more (2005-11-15)
Cell phone use not linked to cancer risk
Long or short-term cell phone use is not associated with increased cancer risk, according to a study in the December 6 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. view more (2006-12-06)
Neural development protein disproved as marker for schizophrenia
The results of a study published today in the open access journal BMC Psychiatry contradict previous findings and show that Oct-6, a protein involved in neurodevelopment, is normally expressed in the adult brain and cannot be used to identify patients with schizophrenia. view more (2005-10-24)
Ultrasounds show mothers' drinking shrinks fetal brain
Routine ultrasounds show that heavy drinkers who continue to imbibe after learning they are pregnant may carry fetuses with reduced skull and brain growth compared to those of abstainers or quitters, says a new study. view more (2006-04-28)
Why the brain has 'gray matter'
By borrowing mathematical tools from theoretical physics, scientists have recently developed a theory that explains why the brain tissue of humans and other vertebrates is segregated into the familiar "gray matter" and "white matter." view more (2006-01-12)
The brain's motivation station
The prospect of a paycheck, good grade, or promotion wonderfully concentrates the mind, and researchers have now identified the brain circuitry responsible for such reward-motivated learning. view more (2006-05-04)
Treating multiple brain tumors with radiosurgery results in improved survival
Treating four or more brain tumors in a single radiosurgery session resulted in improved survival compared to whole brain radiation therapy alone. view more (2005-10-19)
Patients, be patient: Brain images suggest new therapy for severe depression can take months to work
It takes time - between three and 12 months - before a new type of therapy for treatment-resistant depression starts to benefit patients, according to new preliminary brain scan research that confirms earlier observations by psychiatrists about vagal nerve stimulation. view more (2006-05-26)
Killing brain tumors from within: A 'Trojan horse' approach
A new method for targeting malignant brain tumors through inducing the cancerous cells to "commit suicide" has been developed by a team of researchers headed by a Hebrew University of Jerusalem professor of biochemistry. view more (2006-10-25)
Stress-induced levels of corticotropin-releasing factor responsible for binge behaviour
Stressed individuals might be particularly prone to binge eating or drug addiction because of the high levels of the stress hormone corticotropin-releasing factor in their brain. view more (2006-04-13)
Ginkgo biloba extract: More than just for memory?
Researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center say they now have a clearer picture of how an extract from the leaves of the Ginkgo biloba tree reduces the risk of aggressive cancer in animal experiments. view more (2006-02-24)
M. D. Anderson: Setting the benchmark in brain tumor treatment
Brain tumor specialists at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center are poised on the brink of a new era. view more (2006-05-10)
Duck-billed dinosaur crests not linked to sense of smell
After decades of debate, a U of T researcher has finally determined that duck-billed dinosaurs' massive but hollow crests had nothing to do with what many scientists suspected - the sense of smell. view more (2006-01-25)
Scientists find brain function most important to maths ability
Scientists at UCL (University College London) have discovered the area of the brain linked to dyscalculia, a maths learning disability. view more (2006-03-07)
Human brains pay a price for being big
Metabolic changes responsible for the evolution of our unique cognitive abilities indicate that the brain may have been pushed to the limit of its capabilities. Research published today in BioMed Central's open access journal Genome Biology adds weight to the theory that schizophrenia is a costly by-product of human brain evolution. view more (2008-08-05)
