New research identifies a specific neural pathway (Pdyn+ neurons) that carries stress signals from the brain to the skin, triggering eczema flares by activating eosinophils.

Tufts University School of Medicine researchers developed imaging technology that records neuronal activity throughout the brain during the first weeks of recovery. They discovered that a head injury ...

Researchers have identified a previously overlooked neural pathway that helps control human hand and arm movements. The ...

Patients with chronic back pain exhibit auditory hyperresponsivity linked to specific neural pathways and multisensory sensitivity patterns.

Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

The biofield, mediated by light known as biophotons, could be the missing piece of the consciousness puzzle.

Researchers at the University of Michigan have discovered that the constant gnawing of rodents isn't just a reflex or a consequence of a tough diet. It also triggers a release of dopamine in the brain ...

Dear Doctors: My husband and I usually make a few resolutions for the new year. This year, I skipped it because I never follow through, and I wind up feeling bad about myself. My husband did OK for ...
