MOp (primary motor cortex), MOs (secondary motor cortex), SSp (primary somatosensory area), PALd (pallidum, dorsal), VM (ventral medial thalamic nucleus), LHA (lateral hypothalamus), STN (subthalamic ...

The function of your brain is to replicate your OS programming. There are parts of your brain, like the Reticular Activating System, that filter out and reject any belief or fact that doesn’t ...

According to the authors, specific high-order thalamic regions act as a gateway to awareness by sending signals to the prefrontal cortex. The findings shed new light on the mysteries of human ...

For example, effects like intraocular inflammation and reticular vasculitis are an inherent class-specific risk associated with anti-VEGF drug. When a biosimilar matches the reference product in ...

New research reveals that lower proportions of specific sleep stages are associated with reduced brain volume in regions vulnerable to the development of Alzheimer's disease over time. New ...

Interfaculty Research Cooperation Grant “Decoding sleep†The TSS study (Thalamic Stroke and Sleep) was supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation grant Sleep, Stroke, Neuroplasticity; the ...

In tissue blocks containing the mediodorsal thalamic nucleus (MD) from healthy donors (n = 5), we used dual immunofluorescence, confocal microscopy, and unbiased stereology to characterize BCAN and ...

Scientists at the Salk Institute mapped the pathways that connect other regions of brain to striatal interneurons in mice and discovered that a group of neurons in the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) ...

Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) of the hypothalamus and nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) of the brainstem play important roles in suppressing food intake and ...
