Endometriosis surgery can be performed in two ways: the traditional laparoscopic method and the newer robotic-assisted approach. Both are minimally invasive, but they might not be equal when it comes to post-surgery pain and the need for strong painkillers, known as opioids. Researchers wanted to s
Ever wondered how cycling and visual tasks affect your brain? A small study tried to find out. They looked at how cycling on a stationary bike and a visual task, like searching for items, impact brain function. Twenty-seven young adults took part. They did four sessions. First, they checked their f
Neuroscience is stepping away from old ideas that label brain differences as problems. Instead, it's looking at each person's brain as a unique network. This shift is called precision neurodiversity. It's about seeing how our brains are wired differently and how that affects how we think and behave.
Ever wonder how your brain deals with weird or unexpected info? Well, it turns out your brain has a cool way of sorting things out. Scientists used EEGs to peek inside the brain and see what happens when we process odd data. They found that our brains use two main modes: automatic and controlled pro
Sesame seeds might be small, but they hold big secrets. Scientists have found a new way to study these tiny powerhouses. They used a special tool called ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. This tool is like a super-powered microscope that can see the invisible. The tool can quickly and easily check the chemical
Epilepsy is a complex puzzle. It alters the brain's layout and operations. Researchers have been piecing together clues. They examined various brain scans. Some scans focused on the brain's physical form. Others observed its activity during rest. The findings were intriguing. The hippocampus, a vit
The occipitotemporal cortex (OTC) in our brain is quite the multitasker. It's not just about recognizing faces, bodies, or scenes. It's about using what we see to guide our actions. Some researchers argue that we should shift our focus. Instead of just looking at categories like faces or places, we
The brain is like a bustling city, with different areas working together to keep things running smoothly. For a long time, scientists have focused on the gray matter, which is like the city's main offices where important decisions are made. But now, they're starting to realize that the white matter,
Milk powder is a big deal in many households. But what if it's not real? Fake milk powder can be risky. So, finding tricks to spot it is super important. A new method uses something called Raman spectroscopy. It's like a high-tech detective. This method can find fake stuff in milk powder, even when
Pulse Biosciences, a company known for its unique nPulse™ technology, recently made a move to attract new talent. They gave stock options to three new employees. These options let them buy up to 13, 450 shares of the company's stock. The options have an exercise price of $13. 58 per share. This pric
