Electrodes applied to most peripheral nerves can electrically access a large number of axons within the nerve. In many cases, advantage may be taken of the fascicular arrangement of the axons within ...

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have created a biodegradable, implantable tube or “nerve guide” that can repair damage to major nerves in cases of traumatic injury. The ...

Scientists created a model of the human pain pathway in a dish by connecting four separate brain organoids. The feat should help them understand sensory disorders like those affecting pain perception.

A deep-learning model trained on optical coherence tomography scans of the optic nerve head reliably distinguished among various types of optic nerve damage, such as glaucoma, non-arteritic anterior ...

For people living with chronic inflammatory diseases, the immune system can feel like a switch that is stuck in the ‘on’ ...
