New perspectives in the research of new drug against the most serious neurological disorders and neurodegenerative. The Department of Neuroscience and neurotechnologies the Italian Institute of Technology has written an important study published in Trends in Neurosciences (TINS), the most authoritative international journals update on Neuroscience, “compartmentalization from the outside: the extracellular matrix and functional [...]

A team of scientists has discovered that a memory rather than a partial memory loss is liable to cause mental confusion in patients with dementia.

From a U.S. study showed that the disease originates from the entorhinal cortex and then spread into other areas of the brain due to the complex neural network. Alzheimer’s is a disease caused by the formation of aggregates are toxic to neurons in the brain caused by the accumulation of beta amyloid protein that forms [...]

A research published on Brain, has highlighted the possibility of using magnetic resonance imaging for early diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease with 95% reliability. After that Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease is the most common degenerative brain disease characterized by progressive tremor and difficulty in movement. Despite technological change, today its diagnosis is mainly based on neurological medical [...]

If the trials will bring real benefits, thanks to the stem cells will be possible to reconstruct an entire articular cartilage. Will resume in the coming weeks how to start the testing of stem cells of the human brain for a possible treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The impetus for the research, says Angelo Vescovi, [...]

It has long been known that the primary emotions – like anger, sadness, joy and fear – are associated with activation of specific brain regions. The more complex emotions such as social emotions, especially typical of the human race, have been so far hardly been investigated with scientific methods. Among these is the social emotions [...]
