Scientists at UCSF combined advanced brain-network modeling, genetics, and imaging to reveal how tau protein travels through ...

A new study finds rare neural stem cells in the adult human hippocampus, suggesting some brains can generate new neurons into ...

For decades, the story of Alzheimer’s research has been dominated by a battle between amyloid-beta and tau amyloids, both of which can kill neurons and impact the brain’s abil ...

It's been recognized for some time that Alzheimer's disease affects brain regions differently and that tau—a protein known to ...

Using brain gene expression maps from the Allen Human Brain Atlas, the researchers tested the degree to which Alzheimer’s risk genes explain the patterns of both actual and residual tau. This allowed ...

Discover the deep-rooted causes of chronic stress and learn how to transform your stress response for lasting resilience.

Findings suggest that Alzheimer’s risk genes drive tau buildup and spread through both network-based and independent mechanisms.

It's been recognized for some time that Alzheimer's disease affects brain regions differently and that tau - a protein known ...

An interaction between two proteins points to a molecular basis for memory. But how do memories last when the molecules that ...

A single low dose of the anesthetic ketamine restored the ability to enjoy sweet treats and social contact in mice that had ...

A new study reveals that neurons in the brain’s memory center, the hippocampus, continue to form well into late adulthood. A ...
