Current reporting, research and professional developments across Neuropsychology, curated for psychologists and behavioral-health professionals.
Behavioral state fluctuations profoundly impact episodic memory processing. To explore the underlying mechanisms, we recorded CA1 place cells in head-fixed male mice and focused on awake immobility to capture spontaneous…
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimerâs, dementia, and Parkinsonâs disease, pose a significant worldwide health concern owing to their progressive and irreversible nature. Early and precise prediction of…
Stereotypical motor movements (SMM) are a core diagnostic feature of autism and remain difficult to quantify across individuals and developmental stages in an efficient and valid way. The current paper presents a novel…
Influenced by Regulatory Focus Theory, message framing is crucial in persuasive communication, particularly in marketing. This effect is further enhanced when integrated with artificial intelligence-generated content…
In the version of the article initially published, Corey C. Harwell was inadvertently omitted from the author list. Corey C. Harwellâs laboratory, in collaboration with Christopher M. Reid, generated the unpublished…
An important but under-explored use case for socially assistive robotics is in community formation. In this work, we conduct a novel investigation into the ability of a social robot to encourage human-human relationships…
Sensory difficulties in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exacerbate behavioural and emotional challenges. Despite their clinical prevalence, objective psychophysical assessments of sensory performance in…
In May 2026, OpenAI released a new math result that sent shock waves throughout the world of mathematical research. A major unsolved problem called the "unit distance conjecture" had just been resolved by generative AI.
Researchers at University College London suspect money troubles may place chronic stress on the systems involved in cognitive processing ...
Anyone who has spent time on a college campus lately has probably heard laments from faculty about their students' reading habits, or rather, nonreading habits. Such complaints are more than unfounded nostalgia for a…
Sustainable business practices are often seen as a luxury that only rich countries can afford. And these days, some of the biggest economies, including the U.S., are backtracking on those commitments.
Three studies presented at the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery's (SNIS) 23rd Annual Meeting found that racial, geographic and socioeconomic disparities continue to influence stroke treatment and outcomes across…
A new study uses the HiToP framework to map motor symptoms to mental health dimensions in nearly 3,500 individuals.
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science, the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and the University of Washington have shed new light on Alzheimer's disease that could point to…
Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have uncovered the first high-resolution structure of NBCn2, a brain protein linked to epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder and other neurological conditions, and…
Researchers found that elevated acid ceramidase in senescent cells increases their susceptibility to ferroptosis and transfers this vulnerability to adjacent tissue.
A new study introduces FlatMux, a two-photon voltage imaging platform that records electrical signals from nearly 200 neurons at up to 2,000 frames per second.
A new study shows that 3D genome architecture is altered in prefrontal cortex cells of individuals with Alzheimer's disease.
A new study indicates that the immune cell landscape of the hippocampus, a brain region critical for learning and memory, rapidly undergoes substantial remodeling beginning in midlife. This previously unrecognized shift…
Dr. Kate Diasamidze is a Los Angeles-based neuropsychologist with clinical training in UCLA-affiliated settings, specializing in ...
Bureaucracy moves slowly, and decades of outdated provisions clogging the bylaws of cities and states only make it worse. Sometimes dubbed "policy sludge," such obsolete processes and stale reporting requirements can…
A research team led by Professor Jae Youn Hwang of DGIST's Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, in collaboration with a team led by Professors Euiheon Chung and Hyuk Sang Kwon of GIST's Department…
A new study reveals that the human brain undergoes major shifts in 3D genome architecture and gene regulation starting in midlife.
The silkworm moth, whose caterpillars have been used in silk production since antiquity, may have been brought to southern Central Asia 4,000 years ago—nearly 2,000 years earlier than previously assumed—according to new…
Human sacrifice was deeply ingrained in Inca civilization. Children and young people were selected for sacrifice to appease the gods and sacred mountain spirits. Being chosen was considered a great honor for both the…
It's no secret that management at major firms such as Starbucks and Tesla isn't exactly a fan of unionization. But for other companies, how does an anti-union stance affect worker output and performance? It might depend…
Asingle dose of the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin rapidly reverses autism-like behaviors and abnormal brain connectivity in adult mice exposed to maternal inflammation during development.
The world of mathematics handed out its most prestigious awards Thursday at a unique moment for the field, as it faces pressure from AI's potential to outpace human calculation.
A new study highlights "gut jet lag", the desynchronization between host biological clocks and gut microbiota rhythms during long-haul travel.
How and why we experience consciousness is a question that has long plagued philosophers and scientists alike. We have come to understand that, when awake, our brains organize neural information for perception, yet we…
