A research team led by researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, has, for the first time, successfully decoded leg movements directly from the remaining nerves in people with ...

Even when you’re full, early brain responses to food cues stay rewarding, helping explain why seeing snacks can still trigger wanting and lead to overeating.

Before his disease took his voice, he could type a message as fast as anyone. Now, with electrodes no larger than a grain of rice embedded near the surface of his brain, he can do it again, at 110 ...

To understand differences in neural activity between FXS and non-FXS individuals when responding to different frequencies, Thorpe said, researchers played an auditory “chirp,” or sound stimulus, and ...
