Cedars-Sinai Guerin Children’s is building a formidable pediatric research enterprise aimed at identifying the genetic underpinnings of childhood diseases and developing novel therapies.
Researchers at UC San Diego identify a key pathway leading to neurodegeneration in early stages of ALS, hinting at the potential for short-circuiting the progression of the fatal disease if diagnosed early.
Dr. Jacqueline Gottlieb from Columbia University shares groundbreaking insights into the science of curiosity. Known for her research on cognition and decision-making, Dr. Gottlieb explains that curiosity isn’t just about learning—it’s a complex process where our brains assess uncertainty and prioritize valuable information
Experts on healthy aging from Cedars-Sinai’s growing Center for Translational Geroscience and Geriatrics Program will present their latest research and clinical advances at The Gerontological Society of America’s (GSA) 2024 Annual Scientific Meeting in Seattle, Nov. 13-16.
Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago ranked #9 in Newsweek’s list of the World’s Best Specialized Hospitals 2025 in Pediatrics. The hospital is among the top 250 pediatric hospitals worldwide to be recognized.
In a study published November 7 in the journal Cell Reports Medicine, researchers from Tufts University School of Medicine and Vanderbilt University School of Medicine show that people with schizophrenia generate distinct neural patterns when asked to make decisions based on conflicting information. The work offers one of the first biological tests to assess whether someone is prone to inflexible thinking and, by monitoring changes in these patterns, a new way to measure whether treatments are working.
Older people who are sleepy during the day or lack enthusiasm for activities due to sleep issues may be more likely to develop a syndrome that can lead to dementia, according to a study published in the November 6, 2024, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
Mount Sinai researchers have discovered for the first time a neural mechanism for memory integration that stretches across both time and personal experience.
As primary care for Koos grade I vestibular schwannomas, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is superior to observation with regard to tumor control and preservation of neurologic function, according to the results of an international, multicenter retrospective study.
This research introduces new techniques to significantly improve the field of view of three-photon microscopy. Scientists can now observe the activity of large groups of neurons in deep brain regions with unprecedented detail. This advancement enables a deeper understanding of brain function and neural networks.
A review article entitled “Prevalence of Antibiotic Resistance in Older Adults and Alzheimer’s Disease Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis,” is now published in the Journal Alzheimer’s Disease Reports.
On a Thursday morning in Dallas, Fiona Strasserking, M.D., chats with her UT Southwestern colleague while internal medicine residents from the University of Zambia log on to their Zoom call. Rafic Berbarie, M.D., Associate Professor in UTSW’s Division of Cardiology, is today’s guest lecturer and the topic is “Evaluation of Chest Pain.”
University of Wisconsin–Madison researchers are warning that artificial intelligence tools gaining popularity in the fields of genetics and medicine can lead to flawed conclusions about the connection between genes and physical characteristics, including risk factors for diseases like diabetes.The faulty predictions are linked to researchers’ use of AI to assist genome-wide association studies.
Certains aspects de la pandémie de COVID-19 ont été de courte durée, comme les confinements et la distanciation sociale. Les webinaires ILAE, en revanche, ont non seulement persisté depuis 2020, mais sont aussi devenus plus fréquents.
Juhn Atsushi Wada was a Japanese–Canadian neurologist known for research on epilepsy and brain asymmetry, including the development of the Wada test to assess hemispheric dominance of language function. He became a pioneer in the utilization of the kindling model of epilepsy, which permitted controlled studies of the development of epilepsy in the laboratory.
