A speech prosthetic developed by a collaborative team of Duke neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, and engineers can translate a person's brain signals into what they're trying to say.

A consortium of scientists unveiled a detailed portrait of the human brain, mapping over 3,000 distinct types of brain cells responsible for emotions, thoughts, memories, and various neurological disorders.

A complete map of all the connections in an entire mammalian brain may be in sight. Allen Institute researchers have just launched three new projects to construct large, detailed maps of neuronal connections in sections of the mouse and macaque brains, with an eye toward creating full wiring diagrams of these animals' brains in the future.

About 55 million people live with dementia worldwide. New research into why brain cells die is enabling scientists to develop effective Alzheimer's drugs.

Researchers establish connections between Alzheimers-linked genetic alterations and the functioning of brain cells.

Researchers are gaining new insights into neurological diseases by studying circular RNAs (circRNAs) in brain cells.

The discovery of a new kind of "hybrid cell" could create an upheaval in the field of neuroscience, giving scientists new potential way to target neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease.

Researchers explored the biological mechanisms by which exercise-induced irisin attenuates amyloid-beta pathology in Alzheimer’s disease.

To understand the full relationship between brain activity and behavior, scientists have needed a way to map this relationship for all of the neurons across a whole brain-;a so far insurmountable challenge.

In a study published in the journal Foods, researchers reviewed available literature on the potential anti-Alzheimer's disease properties of mushrooms.
