Stem cells derived from a patient's own fat offer a step toward improving—not just stabilizing—motor and sensory function of people with spinal cord injuries, according to early research from Mayo ...
A new study is using robotics to expose a hidden barrier in stroke recovery: the loss of the body’s internal sense of movement. This sensory ability, called proprioception, is rarely tested in clinics ...
Graphesthesia, also called graphagnosia, is the ability to recognize symbols when they’re traced on the skin. “Graph” means writing and “esthesia” means sensing. This ability is a measure of cortical ...
Memory problems have long been considered the primary hallmark of dementia, but a team of researchers is now challenging this view. They argue that changes in sensory perception – from vision to ...
Every day, we constantly absorb information through our sensory organs, which the brain then needs to process correctly. The information initially reaches the thalamus and then travels to the cerebral ...
Researchers have discovered that an FDA-approved drug acts on support cells in the central nervous system to encourage sensory neurons to regrow after injury. A spinal cord injury damages the lines of ...
Memory problems have long been considered the primary hallmark of dementia, but a team of researchers is now challenging this view. They argue that changes in sensory perception—from vision to balance ...
