Researchers at UCL have fixed a significant piece of the challenge that makes up the ancient Greek astronomical calculator referred to as the Antikythera Device, a hand-powered mechanical device used to predict expensive events. Understood to many as the globe’s first analog computer, the Antikythera Mechanism is the most complicated piece of design endured from […]
A set of brain signals known to assist memories form may additionally influence blood glucose levels, finds brand-new research in rats. Researchers at NYU Grossman College of Medicine discovered that a strange signaling pattern in the brain area called the hippocampus, connected by previous studies to memory development, likewise affects the metabolic process, the procedure

According to a study published June 20 in Science, scientists discovered two types of glial cells in the brains of adult mice – an astrocyte and an oligodendrocyte progenitor cell – after pushing neural stem cells to rise from dormancy. The results indicate new roles for glial cells, notorious for offering support to neurons. They also

Organic engineers at MIT have created a brand-new way to edit bacterial genomes successfully and program memories right into microbial cells by revising their DNA. Using this technique, various spatial and temporal information can be stored for generations and obtained by sequencing the cells’ DNA. The new DNA writing method, which the scientists call HiSCRIBE,
The neurotransmitters GABA and glutamate have complementary functions – GABA inhibits neurons, while glutamate makes them extra active. Published on July 22nd, 2021, in PLOS Biology, scientists led by Roi Cohen Kadosh and George Zacharopoulos from the University of Oxford revealed that degrees of these two neurotransmitters in the intraparietal sulcus of the brain could

On August 9, 2021, research from APC Microbiome Ireland (APC) at University College Cork (UCC), published in the leading international scientific journal Nature Aging, presents a new approach to invert aspects of brain deterioration and cognitive function related to aging through the microbes in the intestine. As our population ages, one of the leading global
