A recent study reveals that the physical structure of a specific brain region acts as a bridge between narcissistic ...
Previous research has found that the human brain reaches maturity sometime in the 20s, but a new study suggests that it never stops developing. Neuroscientists at the University of Cambridge have ...
A research team has identified genetic factors that influence the shape of subcortical brain regions—far beyond volume measurements. The results could open up new approaches for the early detection of ...
As more labs have adopted this methodology, they’ve created increasingly complex structures, including interconnected systems ...
The development of many psychiatric disorders, including depression, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, is known to be in great part influenced by genetics. Past research has identified various genes ...
A hidden waste-removal pathway in the brain has finally been caught in action. Using cutting-edge MRI scans, researchers ...
