Updated October 14, 2026 | Reviewed by Monica Vilhauer Ph.D. A paper published recently in Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience is making some waves in trauma circles, and for good reason. Written by Steven Kotler, Michael Mannino, Glenn Fox, and Karl Friston, it takes…
Artificial intelligence tools have emerged as a potential means of extending the capabilities of health care workers, including in primary care settings. Large language models (LLMs) known as chatbots have performed well in simulations. However, little is known about how…

The new analyses indicate that there were fewer countable motor seizures as early as two weeks following bexicaserin treatment initiation and that these reductions were maintained over a full year of open label observation. This observed response was consistent across…
Certain common genetic changes might make some people with focal epilepsy less responsive to seizure medications, finds a new global study led by researchers at UCL and UTHealth Houston. Focal epilepsy is a condition where seizures start in one part…
A systematic review of 43 studies finds that longer status epilepticus duration predicts worse functional outcome more consistently than mortality, urging clinicians to treat seizure duration as a context-dependent marker rather than an absolute threshold. Article Title: Associations between duration of…
A multi-cohort transcriptomic, genetic, and experimental study identifies the RHBDF2–ADAM17–TNFα axis as a molecular bridge linking ulcerative colitis to blood–brain barrier disruption and dementia risk. Subject of Research: Molecular mechanisms linking ulcerative colitis to blood–brain barrier disruption and…
A surgical treatment commonly used to reduce epileptic seizures in adults also is effective and safe for children, according to a Rutgers study. The study, published in the journal Neurosurgery, is one of the first to investigate responsive neurostimulation system…
A new coordinate-based network mapping study suggests that the scattered gray matter abnormalities reported in idiopathic generalized epilepsy converge most consistently on a subcortical functional network centered on the thalamus and putamen. News Source: Kendall Mcintyre. (October 15, 2026). Scattered Gray Matter…
Cells long viewed as guardians of brain health may have a darker side in old age. New research suggests that oligodendrocytes, the cells that build and maintain the insulating coating around nerve fibers, can become dysfunctional and help drive the…
