Psychiatric Medication.London, UK. An animal model has been used to better understand the clinical significance of chronic psychotropic drug treatment on structural remodeling of the brain.

The effects of these structural changes has been unclear given the many challenges in executing longitudinal, controlled, and randomized studies to evaluate this issue in humans.

Brain Network.Hamburg-Eppendorf, Germany. Brain networks may communicate on different frequencies to avoid traffic jams, a potential key to conditions with scarce structural markers.

The research was conducted by a team of researchers from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf and the University of Tübingen. Their findings appear in the journal Nature Neuroscience.

A method for assisting nerves to repair naturally could improve the chances of restoring sensation and movement in injured or regenerated limbs and appendages.

An engineering team has describes a new method for making medical devices called nerve guidance conduits (NGCs). Their study that appears in the journal Biofabrication.

Mouse brain (abstract representation).Seattle, WA, USA. A new dataset in the Allen Brain Atlas shows good conservation of gene expression between humans and mice, with reports of some striking differences.

A report published in the journal Cell examines the cellular and molecular organization of human and mouse brains by analyzing the expression of approximately 1,000 genes in the brain.

A diffusion spectrum MR image of rhesus monkey brain. Courtesy of Van Wedeen, M.D.Boston, MA. USA. Neural pathways are arranged in a curved, three-dimensional grid, built from parallel and perpendicular fibers that cross each other in an orderly fashion.

The discovery of such a remarkably simple organization in the forebrain of humans and other primates was completely unsuspected by investigators, with implications for further studies of brain evolution, development, and analysis.
