| | | | | Study reveals negative long-term effects of heavy cannabis use on brain function and behavior Young people with cannabis dependence have altered brain function that may be the source of emotional disturbances and increased psychosis risk that are associated with cannabis abuse, according to a new study published in Biological Psychiatry: Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuroimaging. | | | | | | Neuronal loss is very limited in Alzheimer’s disease, shows new study Frequently encountered in the elderly, Alzheimer's is considered a neurodegenerative disease, which means that it is accompanied by a significant, progressive loss of neurons and their nerve endings, or synapses. | | | | | | Maximize resolution in deep imaging for neuroscience research with Olympus TruResolution objectives Two new Olympus TruResolution objectives for multiphoton laser scanning microscopes deliver an industry-first automatic spherical aberration compensation function that also compensates for Z-shifts when operating the correction collar. This function automatically finds the best collar setting based on measured image contrast for clear, bright imaging. | | | | | | Neuronal loss very limited in Alzheimer's disease, new study shows Frequently encountered in the elderly, Alzheimer's is considered a neurodegenerative disease, which means that it is accompanied by a significant, progressive loss of neurons and their nerve endings, or synapses. A joint French and Canadian study published in Scientific Reports now challenges this view. | | | | | | AMSBIO offers isogenic panels of neuronal iPSC derivatives For several years, neuroscience research using cell line and animal models of degenerative neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease has been challenged to translate results into in vivo conditions, whether for basic understanding of disease pathology or for the screening of targeted drug therapies. | |
