Researchers have defined a new genetic disease caused by a mutation in the IVNS1ABP gene. The condition marks a rare ...

Researchers have used gene therapy to partially reprogram the brain cells that store memories in aging mice, reversing signs of cellular decline and restoring learning ability. The technique, ...

Brain fog can be scary. It might appear innocently, like losing your car keys or forgetting what date you scheduled that appointment on. Some of this memory loss is normal—it’s just a natural side ...

Scientists have developed a promising new approach to treating Alzheimer’s disease by turning ordinary brain cells into powerful plaque-clearing machines. Instead of requiring frequent antibody ...

This scan of a mouse brain shows blood vessels (red), brain cells (green), and amyloid plaques (blue). A new gene therapy treatment developed by UC San Diego works by reprogramming the behavior of ...
