Memories Are Not Limited to Brain, New Study Claims
- Tuesday November 12, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A study from NYU reveals that kidney and nerve cells can perform memory-like functions, suggesting memory capabilities are not restricted to the brain. By replicating a spaced learning process, scientists observed memory gene activation in these non-neural cells, expanding possibilities for enhancing learning and treating memory-related health issu...

Largest Brain Map Ever Reveals 140,000 Neurons and New Nerve Cell Types in Fruit Fly Brain
- Monday October 7, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new brain map of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster reveals nearly 140,000 neurons and over 54.5 million synapses. Led by neuroscientists Mala Murthy and Sebastian Seung, the research has uncovered 4,581 previously unknown types of neurons. The project took over four years to complete, relying on AI-assisted electron microscopy.

Brain Ageing in Monkeys Delays After Being Given Diabetes Medicine Metformin, Study Shows
- Tuesday September 17, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A recent study has highlighted the potential of metformin, a commonly used diabetes medication, in slowing the ageing process in monkeys. Published in Cell on 12 September, the research shows that daily doses of metformin can preserve cognitive function and delay the ageing effects on various tissues, particularly the brain. This study brings forwa...

Scientists Test Nanorobots to Treat Brain Aneurysms
- Sunday September 8, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have created nanorobots that could revolutionise the treatment of brain aneurysms by delivering clot-forming drugs directly to the weakened vessel area, reducing the risk of stroke. These robots, smaller than blood cells, were successfully tested in rabbits. The nanobots are guided using magnetic fields and heat, which release the drug a...

COVID-19 Virus’ Link That Potentially Increases Brain Infection Risk Found, Claims Study
- Wednesday August 28, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A recent study has revealed that SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, might be using an unexpected method to infect the brain. Researchers found that mutations in the virus' spike protein allow it to enter brain cells through a "back door," a process that might explain the neurological symptoms observed in some COVID-19 pati...

Harvard and Google Created the Most Detailed Map of Brain Using AI
- Sunday August 18, 2024
- Gadgets 360 Staff
In a landmark achievement, Harvard University and Google have developed the most detailed brain map ever created. This innovative project focused on a cubic millimeter of human cerebral cortex, a sample taken during an epilepsy surgery in 2014. Over a decade, biologists and machine-learning experts meticulously mapped approximately 57,000 cells and...
