Axonal conduction velocity, which ensures efficient function of the brain network, is related to axon diameter. Noninvasive, in vivo axon diameter estimates can be made with diffusion magnetic ...

Different brain regions are connected by—and interact through—networks of neurons. But the extent to which neuronal wiring drives shared function between these different regions is not well understood ...

Prenatal exposure to chlorpyrifos is associated with altered brain structure, function, and metabolism, with a duration into late childhood and adolescence.

Scientists have mapped out the molecular structure of a key part of our chromosomes called telomeres, which play a pivotal part in aging and cancer. Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, ...

Scientific research requires patience. The rewards are not always immediate, and the technology needed does not always exist. Michael A. Trakselis, Ph.D., professor and director of graduate affairs ...

Scientists have revealed how Fanzor2's divergence from bacterial ancestors may make it a useful tool for future genomic engineering endeavors. A revolution in biomedicine is currently underway, driven ...
