Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, depending on their physical structure. New research from the Institute of ...
A novel electrode platform detects dopamine from single living brain organoids in real time, enabling non-destructive monitoring of neuronal function at concentrations as low as 7.51 nM. (Nanowerk ...
What if your brain had a built-in map—not of places, but of possible futures? Researchers at the Champalimaud Foundation (CF) blend neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI) to reveal that ...
Dopamine is the brain's motivational spark, driving us to chase what feels good, say scrolling another reel on social media, and steer clear of what doesn't, like touching a hot stove. But scientists ...
A groundbreaking clinical trial is testing whether specially engineered stem cells can help the brain restore its own dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease. Because the condition is ...
Surgeons have transplanted dopamine-producing cells derived from human embryonic stem cells directly into the brains of ...
The caudate nucleus (green) is a subcortical brain region located in the striatum. The striatum is one of several neural structures that make up the basal ganglia (colored regions) located below the ...
Researchers used PET imaging to assess dopamine neuron markers in 24 adults with long COVID. They found reduced VMAT2 levels ...
