A new study shows how dysfunctional packaging of the neurotransmitter dopamine triggers toxic processes in neurons—and how ...
A groundbreaking clinical trial is testing whether specially engineered stem cells can help the brain restore its own dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease. Because the condition is ...
When we learn a new motor skill—whether mastering a piano passage or refining balance while walking—the brain must reorganize ...
Dopamine is a type of neurotransmitter that can provide an intense feeling of reward. It has been a long-standing assumption that most, if not all, dopamine neurons solely respond to rewards or reward ...
Researchers review the future of schizophrenia treatment, highlighting TAAR1 agonists, NMDA enhancers, and the gut-brain axis ...
A pioneering clinical trial is exploring whether lab-engineered stem cells can restore dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease.
Unexpected rewards boost movement speed within 220 milliseconds, revealing how dopamine-linked reward prediction shapes human motion and offering a potential biomarker for brain disorders.
When you are feeling hungry, the brain takes the necessary steps toward consuming a meal. Many of these steps are not well known, but a new study published in the journal Metabolism by researchers at ...
What happens in the human brain when we learn from positive and negative experiences? To help answer that question and better understand decision making and human behavior, scientists are studying ...
For the first time, dopamine regulation has been mapped in real time, deep inside the brains of three humans, revealing how the brain neurotransmitter plays an essential role in not just recognizing ...
What happens in the human brain when we learn from positive and negative experiences? To help answer that question and better understand decision-making and human behavior, scientists are studying ...
Our brains have been trained to chase 'easy dopamine' - but we can restore focus, motivation and energy with a detox ...
