Epileptic seizures, with their synchronized bursts of neural activity, can be tamed! Traditional therapies focus on suppressing seizures during the ictal period, but once the stimulation is turned off, the seizures may return. However, a groundbreaking study introduces a new neurostimulation technique called Forced Temporal Spike-Time Stimulation (FTSTS). By leveraging synaptic plasticity, FTSTS desynchronizes pathological […]
Imagine you’re baking a cake but you don’t have the recipe. Instead of giving up, you decide to study each ingredient and its properties. That’s exactly what scientists are doing to build artificial intelligence (AI) based on our understanding of the brain! They’re taking a bottom-up approach, analyzing the different features of neurons, synapses, and […]
Think of the brain like a puzzle, and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) as a missing piece. In this new study, scientists used functional MRI (fMRI) to uncover the hidden connections within the frontoparietal network (FPN), a crucial part of the brain’s internal communication system. By analyzing various fMRI-related measures, such as low-frequency fluctuations and functional […]
