| Study casts doubt on theory that women aren't as competitive as men Posted: 01 Nov 2021 12:48 PM PDT The theory has been touted as a possible explanation for America's longstanding gender wage gap. But new research suggests women exhibit their competitiveness differently. |
| Researchers boost human mental function with brain stimulation Posted: 01 Nov 2021 11:17 AM PDT Researchers show it is possible to improve specific human brain functions related to self-control and mental flexibility by merging artificial intelligence with targeted electrical brain stimulation. |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2021 11:17 AM PDT Monoclonal antibodies protected aged, diabetic rhesus macaque monkeys from disease due to SARS-CoV-2 and reduced signs of inflammation, including in cerebrospinal fluid, according to a new study. |
| New type of nerve cell discovered in the retina Posted: 01 Nov 2021 07:54 AM PDT Scientists have discovered a new type of nerve cell, or neuron, in the retina. In the central nervous system a complex circuitry of neurons communicate with each other to relay sensory and motor information; so-called interneurons serve as intermediaries in the chain of communication. |
| Study IDs strategies to help recovering alcoholics Posted: 01 Nov 2021 07:53 AM PDT A new study identified six strategies recovering alcoholics use to negotiate social situations and remain sober. |
| Key to resilient energy-efficient AI/machine learning may reside in human brain Posted: 01 Nov 2021 07:48 AM PDT A clearer understanding of how a type of brain cell known as astrocytes function and can be emulated in the physics of hardware devices, may result in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning that autonomously self-repairs and consumes much less energy than the technologies currently do, according to researchers. |
| SARS-CoV-2 virus can infect the inner ear, study finds Posted: 29 Oct 2021 04:49 AM PDT The SARS-CoV-2 virus can infect cells of the inner ear, including hair cells, which are critical for both hearing and balance, a new study suggests. Researchers also found that the pattern of infection seen in human ear tissue is consistent with the symptoms seen in a study of 10 COVID-19 patients who reported a variety of ear-related symptoms. |
| PTSD symptoms vary over course of menstrual cycle, research finds Posted: 28 Oct 2021 06:33 AM PDT In women who have experienced trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms may vary over the course of the menstrual cycle, with more symptoms during the first few days of the cycle when the hormone estradiol is low, and fewer symptoms close to ovulation, when estradiol is high, new research finds. |
| Death rate from Parkinson's rising in U.S., study finds Posted: 27 Oct 2021 06:19 PM PDT A new study shows that in the last two decades the death rate from Parkinson's disease has risen about 63 percent in the United States. The study also found that the death rate was twice as high in men as in women, and there was a higher death rate in white people than other racial/ethnic groups. |
