A drug mainly used by hypertension patients has been discovered to reduce the inflammation caused by the body after suffering from traumatic brain injury, a new study reports.
Scientists have finally been able to make an artificial brain.
Researchers from the RIKEN-MIT Center for Neural Circuit Genetics have created their own "blue light special" for mice-but this one helps them recall memories that had been suppressed. Their study, published in the journal Science, also suggests something even more profound: even memories that have been assumed to be lost after traumatic injury to the brain may still exist, and be retrievable.
