Researchers at Bradley Hospital found that virtual reality (VR) training can help therapists feel more confident using exposure therapy. The study showed that simpler VR setups can be effective in reducing therapists' negative beliefs about exposure therapy.
A new study from Bradley Hospital researchers shows that cannabis use during adolescence is associated with reduced dopamine-related neurophysiology and altered reward processing. The study found that teens who repeatedly used cannabis showed signs of reduced tissue iron levels in brain regions involved in motivation and reward.
Researchers discovered a powerful molecule called miR-181d that weaks tumors and helps the immune system fight back against glioblastoma. The study found that tumors in 'exceptional responders' contain higher levels of miR-181d, which blocks cancer cells' ability to repair DNA damage.
Researchers identified a crucial factor that may help improve treatment for glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive and common forms of adult brain cancer. They discovered a small molecule called miR-181d acts like a master switch that controls how much MGMT is produced by each glioblastoma cell.
