A ketogenic diet—one that is high in fat and extremely low in carbohydrates—has been known for decades to reduce seizures in ...

Epilepsy, one of the most common neurological disorders, is characterized by the spontaneous repetition of seizures caused by the hyperactivity of a group of neurons in the brain. Could we therefore ...

Researchers from Inserm and Grenoble Alpes University (UGA) have discovered a new therapeutic avenue for combating ...

A novel peptide augments the brain's natural mechanism to help prevent seizures and protect neurons in research models of both Alzheimer's and epilepsy, scientists report. The A1R-CT peptide the ...

A study by MIT scientists on a group of epilepsy patients discovered that a specific group of neurons in their brains respond only to singing — and not to instrumental music or any other type of sound ...

We all lose brain cells over time, but the results of a study led by scientists from the University of Southern California (USC) Stem Cell and the USC Neurorestoration Center suggest that adults can ...

Breakthrough Preclinical Result in Epilepsy Treatment These findings strengthen our confidence as we progress toward ...

An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a painless test that uses small sensors placed on the scalp to measure the brain's ...

The cerebral cortex, the brain's outermost region responsible for higher cognitive functions, depends on a highly ordered, layered structure. Its proper development requires newly generated neurons to ...
