Functional near-infrared spectroscopy matches fMRI at detecting task-related brain signals

27 Aug 2021

Whole-head functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) can perform comparably to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at detecting task-related cortical haemodynamic changes across the lateral cortex, a recent study has found.

Short sleep may be early warning sign of Alzheimer’s disease

25 Aug 2021 by

Sleep time, estimated by an actigraphy watch, correlates with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of t-tau and p-tau, suggesting its potential role as an early marker of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), according to a recent study.
