Imagine the brain as a bustling city, with different neighborhoods representing stages of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. In these neighborhoods, we have two troublemakers: β-amyloid and α-synuclein proteins. But here’s the twist – these troublemakers also have some hidden talents, like being able to fight off microbes! Scientists believe that these diseases may be influenced […]
Just like a master artist carefully divides a canvas to create a masterpiece, accurate parcellation of the brain is crucial for understanding changes in aging and neurodegeneration. Instead of relying on manual parcellation by radiologists, a new computational model called DeepParcellation uses deep learning techniques to quickly and accurately divide brain regions. In a groundbreaking […]
In the world of stroke rehabilitation, robot-assisted therapy (RAT) has become a popular and promising tool. But how exactly does the brain respond to this type of training? That’s what a recent study sought to uncover. Using a cutting-edge technology called functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), researchers measured the brain’s activity in stroke patients undergoing RAT. […]
