A research team in Germany has published new data on how pigeons use magnetic fields as a navigation method when visibility is limited. A key part of the long-sought answer could lie in an unexpected ...
They might be using iron rich immune cells in their livers to detect Earth’s magnetic field, playing a role in their sense of direction ...
Novel magnetic nanodiscs could provide a much less invasive way of stimulating parts of the brain, paving the way for stimulation therapies without implants or genetic modification, researchers report ...
Bruker Corporation announced the commissioning of a novel BioSpec™ 18 Tesla preclinical MRI, the world’s highest-field ...

Scientists thought they knew what to expect when studying the human brain. Human brains were reacting in real time. No light. Not sound. No touch. Yet brain activity was there. Participants in the ...
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved therapy that uses brief magnetic pulses to treat depression, particularly in patients who do not respond to medication. Yet ...
Shortly after giving birth, a combination of plummeting hormones and the exhaustion of new motherhood can cause a surge of negative emotions. Meanwhile, the brain’s prefrontal cortex has difficulty ...
For children with autism spectrum disorder and with an intellectual disability, the options for improving communication and social skills are limited. Talking therapies and behavioural programmes can ...
Spintronics are devices that operate leveraging the spin, an intrinsic form of angular momentum, of electrons. The ability to switch magnetic states is central to the functioning of these devices, as ...
Neuroscientists at University of Iowa Health Care have demonstrated for the first time that noninvasive brain stimulation can alter the activity of a critical deep brain region involved in emotion and ...
