Monkeypox and Neurology
11 Aug 2022
The World Health Organization recently declared monkeypox a global public health emergency of international concern. Monkeypox is a viral zoonosis caused by a double-stranded DNA virus in the Orthopoxvirus genus, transmitted to humans from animals -- with symptoms similar to smallpox although clinically less severe.
Cell by cell, scientists are building a high-resolution map of brain changes in Alzheimer’s disease
28 Jul 2022
A massive dataset of 1.2M brain cells shines a light on disease’s cellular roots.
New study finds pulsed MRI system could deliver drugs to the brain
21 Jul 2022
Combined MRI/neuromodulation/drug delivery system could revolutionize mental health and neurological therapy
Discovery of a Potential Parkinson's Trigger Could Lead to New Treatments
21 Jul 2022
New research in the journal Brain that takes scientists one step closer to understanding α-synuclein (αSyn), a key protein that they found links inflammation and Parkinson’s disease.
Diagnosis of early-stage Parkinson's disease now possible with new method developed at Hebrew University
15 Jul 2022
Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HU) researchers, led by Professor Aviv Mezer, realize that the cellular changes in Parkinson's could possibly be revealed by adapting a related technique, known as quantitative MRI (qMRI) enabling them to look at microstructures within the part of the deep brain known as the striatum – an organ which is known to deteriorate during the progress of Parkinson's disease.
The Secrets of Covid ‘Brain Fog’ Are Starting to Lift
1 Jul 2022

New imaging method may predict risk of post-treatment brain bleeding after stroke
17 Jun 2022
In a study of stroke patients, investigators confirmed through MRI brain scans that there was an association between the extent of disruption to the brain’s protective blood-brain barrier and the severity of bleeding following invasive stroke therapy.
Information Transfer in the Brain
26 May 2022
Researchers discover a new mechanism responsible for information transfer between different regions of the brain. Discovery of the mechanism may contribute to the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
