Infants born deaf or hard of hearing show adverse changes in how their brains organize and specialize, but exposure to sound and language may help them develop more normally, according to new research ...

Babies with congenital heart disease have altered brain networks that may serve as a helpful guide for improving treatment ...

Based on a study of nearly 3,000 adults, one particular, simple diet has been shown to result in improved communication and structure of the brain's white matter. The more participants adhered to the ...

Background: Neurons have dominated neuroscience research for decades, but a growing body of evidence suggests that a group of non-neuronal brain cells called glia may play an equal or greater role in ...
