Scientists are reporting that a nasal spray of a key brain hormone cures sleepiness in sleep-deprived monkeys. With no apparent side effects, the hormone might be a promising sleep-replacement drug. Saved By: Jeunium | View Details | Give Thanks

An increasing amount of research tries to link the human brain with machines allowing humans to control their environment through their thoughts. Scientists in Australia have developed a mind switch that enables people to activate electrical devices (e.g. turn on a radio or open doors) by thinking.

The Pentagon has a disturbing pattern of withholding information on the impact of chemical/biological weapons and other toxins on US service members. As a result, veterans are often told that their debilitating symptoms are "in their head" and can go decades without receiving medical help. That's not supporting our troops.

It's a scenario straight out of Gray's Anatomy: a paramedic or doctor plops a mask over the face of a person struggling to breathe and begins dispensing pure oxygen. Yet growing research suggests that inhaling straight oxygen can actually harm the brain.

Researchers at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) have identified neural signatures of real-time coordination between people. In one of the first studies in the field of social neuroscience, they actually recorded, measured and analyzed behavior and brain activity simultaneously in two interacting humans.

Like any new kid on the block that tries to fit in, newborn brain cells need to find their place within the existing network of neurons. The newcomers jump right into the fray and preferentially reach out to mature brain cells that are already well connected within the established circuitry

After a log weighing several hundred pounds was dropped on Spc. Paul Thurman's head during during Army Special Forces training, an MRI later showed that he had lesions on the right parietal lobe of his brain, a condition that led to a "don't deploy" order which the Army violated. His leaders have harrassed him and refused him medication.
