Love indulging in a delightful meal, even though you are full? Then that’s the right study for you! Peleg-Raibstein and team investigated the role of different brain cells for the development of overeating behavior. When […]
In a joint project between the Decision Neuroscience Lab at ETH Zurich and the Swiss Epilepsy Center at Klinik Lengg, Ph.D. candidate Giovanna Aiello discovered how deep brain stimulation treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy patients could […]
Have you ever wondered why older adults might struggle to understand speech even with good hearing? The answer lies in how their brains process information. Stefan Elmer, Nathalie Giroud, and their team uncovered the reasons […]
Knowing when to say “stop” to an ongoing action and instead looking for other opportunities (i.e., foraging) is crucial for mental health. However, many people struggle with doing so. Sidorenko and colleagues investigated the effects […]
Do you ever worry about your mental health and wonder if you might develop depression? Recent research by Klaas Enno Stephan and his research team suggests that we may soon be able to identify signs […]
The flagship project STRESS financed by Hochschulmedizin Zürich (HMZ) celebrates its first anniversary – reflecting on achievements and future directions in the pursuit of biomarkers to predict mental and physical symptoms of stress. Stress affects millions of […]
Neurogenesis – the process of renewing neurons in the hippocampus of mammals throughout life – is driven by neural stem cells (NSCs). However, as we age, this activity declines. Yicheng Wu and his team have […]
