An auditory brainstem implant converts sound into an electrical signal and sends it to the brainstem, so your brain can create the sense of sound. An auditory brainstem implant (ABI) is a ...

In experiments, researchers at University College London (UCL) were able to control the three behaviours by switching the neurons on and off in a part of the animals’ brainstem called the median ...

Damage to the brainstem – the brain's 'control center' – is behind long-lasting physical and psychiatric effects of severe Covid-19 infection, a study suggests. Using ultra-high-resolution ...

Researchers have revealed neural circuits in the brainstem that are crucially involved in implementing decisions by controlling three fundamental behavioural states or strategies: perseverance, ...

Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs) are aggressive pediatric brain tumors found in the pontine region of the brainstem.

Circuits in the brain that are crucially involved in implementing decisions by directing between perseverance, exploration and disengagement have been ...
