Cancer Triggers Brain Attack via Immune System Response - Neuroscience NewsResearchers discovered how certain tumors trigger a severe immune response, causing rapid-onset memory loss and cognitive deficits, a condition known as anti-Ma2 paraneoplastic neurological syndrome.

Women’s neuroplasticity during gestation, childbirth and postpartum - Nature NeuroscienceThis longitudinal study tracked the brains of 139 first-time mothers. Mothers showed lower cortical volume before childbirth that attenuated during the postpartum, with a distinct recovery rate as a function of the brain network and birth type.

Under very rare conditions, Alzheimer’s disease may be transmittedAlzheimer’s isn’t contagious. But contaminated growth hormone injections caused early-onset Alzheimer’s in some recipients, a new study suggests.

How Sleep Engineering Could Help Heal the BrainStimulating the sleeping brain may ease suffering from memory loss, stroke or mental health problems

Computational Modeling Sheds Light on Human Cognition and the Origins of Brain Disorders - Neuroscience NewsAn AI model of gene regulation in the brain identified thousands of mutations associated with neocortical development and the facilitation of mathematical abilities.

Brain Cells Inspire New Computer Components - Neuroscience NewsResearchers have developed a more powerful and energy-efficient memristor, based on the structure of the human brain, that combines data storage and processing. The new technology, made from nanocrystals of halogenated perovskite, is not yet ready for use as it is difficult to integrate with existing computer chips, but it has potential for parallel processing of large amounts of data.
