Photonics is gaining momentum as a platform for high-speed AI computing. Researchers in Singapore have demonstrated a passive, ultrafast, and integration-ready all-optical nonlinear activation ...

As mice age, changes in the microorganisms in their guts contribute to cognitive decline by altering signalling between the gut and brain.

Researchers identified in mice a microbiome–gut–brain pathway in which age-associated changes in gut microbes increase medium-chain fatty acids that impair vagal sensory signaling and hippocampal ...

Spinal cord injury often triggers a cascade of secondary damage that severely limits functional recovery, largely driven by ...

There's now another reason to love Japan's famous matcha: A study in mice suggests that the green tea powder could reduce the need to sneeze in people with nasal allergies.

Scientists from the University of Bochum have shown that the process of getting rid of fear can be significantly accelerated by activating certain neurons in the brain. This discovery could be an ...

Tiny plastic particles may be quietly threatening brain health. New research suggests microplastics—now widely found in food, water, and even household dust—could trigger inflammation and damage in ...

A study in mice concluded that memory problems associated with age may be driven by our gut microbiome and that the vagus nerve may be key to reversing it.
