MIT researchers plan to search for proteins that could be used to measure electrical activity in the brain.

"This research demonstrates that we can monitor changes in oxygen concentration continuously and in a wide area of the brain."

A new, one-size-fits-all brain-computer interface lets subjects control a racing video game with their thoughts, researchers report.

"...sharp wave-ripples are the physiological mechanism used by the brain to 'decide' what to keep and what to discard."

For people with type 1 diabetes, both blood sugar highs and lows may hamper the brain's ability to quickly process information.

Human brains are getting bigger. Researchers hypothesize that might be good news for dementia risk.

The discovery of anorexia's origins in the brain was observed in mice, but the findings could lead to human drug treatments.

Single-cell gene expression patterns in the brain, and evidence from follow-up experiments, reveal many shared cellular and molecular similarities that could be targeted for potential treatment.

Living in poorer neighborhoods is linked to higher risk of dementia and faster brain aging, according to new research.

A wireless network that gathers data from sensors no bigger than grains of salt could lead to implantable or wearable biomedical devices.
