New research suggests increased activity in neurons that are deficient in the CNTN5 or EHMT2 gene could cause autism-related characteristics in humans.
The Brazilian Reproducibility Initiative will assess the replicability of biomedical science published by Brazilian institutions and explore what this literature can tell us about research reproducibility.
Scientists have been able to detect the neural ‘fingerprints’ of a missing hand decades after amputation, regardless of the presence of phantom limb movements, but could not find similar fingerprints in those born with a missing hand.
New research on how solid particles group together in the small intestine could aid our understanding of how nutrients and drug particles are absorbed during digestion.
