A new animal study highlights how important uninterrupted sleep is to recovery after a traumatic brain injury, finding that fragmented sleep worsens symptoms that a TBI produces – and that mice without TBI can make up for some REM sleep loss brought on by interruption…

If a Meta AI model can read a brain-wide signal, why wouldn't the brain?

CU Anschutz scientists have discovered that while brain neuron changes, including cell loss, may begin in early life, a drug long-approved for other conditions might be repurposed to slow this damage, offering new hope for those with Alzheimer’s disease and other cognition issues.
