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 [...]

From a British study has shown that stem cells can repair the damage done to the myelin and cause the onset of multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is a serious disease caused by damage to myelin, a substance that surrounds the brain and nerves and spinal cord that modulates the messages transmitted from the brain to [...]

The language is a key factor that distinguishes us as human beings. Although some brain regions are known to be associated with language, neuroscientists have taken a time to use the technology of brain imaging to understand exactly what these “areas of language” are doing. In a new study published in the Journal of Neurophysiology, [...]

Much has been investigated on the molecular effects of acupuncture to boost the impact of this treatment in modern medicine. Scientists have taken another important step toward understanding how the needles are placed in the body can relieve pain. In an article published in Nature Neuroscience , a team from the University of Rochester Medical [...]

The Holy Grail of local anesthesia is the ability to strike a nerve block of long duration that eliminates the sensation of pain without affecting motor function. Researchers at Children’s Hospital Boston have discovered an anesthetic method that seems to do just that. The formula? Lidocaine + surfactants. In local anesthesia, in contrast to the [...]

A new study of sign language does not consider that there is only one advanced area of the human brain that gives to the language skills beyond those possessed by any other animal species. However, to make sense of a sentence using multiple human brain regions, each designed to perform various tasks primitive. Depending on [...]
