Gut Bacteria Infiltrate the Brain Following Medical Device Implantation

The image displays four views of a person's brain, highlighting the boundaries between different functional brain networks, each represented by different colored lines, as mapped using functional MRI. This map is overlaid on a salience network connectivity heat map, where warmer colors indicate stronger connectivity within the salience network. Researchers discovered that a larger salience network may be associated with an increased risk of depression. Credit: Lynch/Liston Labs.

Cleaning up the aging brain: Scientists restore brain’s trash disposal system

A brain organoid culture, where the MECP2 gene (linked to Rett syndrome) has been knocked out, is shown under a fluorescent microscope. The culture was treated with the experimental cancer drug ADH-503, resulting in the formation of new synapses.

Cancer Drug Shows Promise for Improving Cognition in Rett Syndrome and Other Neurological Disorders

Hengen's artistic interpretation of the varied brain wave patterns that produce the fundamental states of sleep and wake.

Scientists find that small regions of the brain can take micro-naps while the rest of the brain is awake and vice versa
