Imagine a synchronized dance performance where all the dancers move in perfect harmony, but sometimes this harmony is disrupted. In absence seizures, the brain experiences a similar phenomenon of hyper-synchronized activity known as generalized spike-and-wave discharges (SWDs). Scientists have been investigating the possibility of using EEG phase synchronization to detect and quantify the disorganization of […]
Alzheimer’s disease is like a mysterious puzzle that scientists are trying to solve. One of the pieces of this puzzle is exosomes, tiny vesicles that act like messengers between cells. Scientists have discovered that exosomes can both contribute to and alleviate the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. They can spread toxic proteins, like a double-edged sword, […]
