Ever feel like your brain is running on empty by 3 p.m.? That mental fog that creeps in during afternoon meetings or when you’re trying to tackle a challenging project might not just be fatigue — it ...

Muse by Interaxon, a neurotechnology startup, unveiled Muse S Athena, a consumer wearable that can deliver advanced cognitive fitness insights. It does so by combining two powerful brain sensors: ...

In mice we observed the occurrence of spatial and temporal defined local sinks in the brain tissue oxygen levels, a phenomenon we termed “hypoxic pockets”. Those hypoxic pockets lasted on average 50 ...

The human brain consumes an immense amount of energy and needs an uninterrupted supply of oxygen to maintain its activity. Therefore, the brain is equipped with a network of delicate blood vessels ...

Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania say they have developed a novel optical method that uses a pair of macromolecular phosphorescent probes for the real-time monitoring of cerebral metabolic ...

Researchers at the University of Rochester and at the University of Copenhagen have developed a bioluminescence imaging technique that creates highly detailed, and visually striking, images of the ...

No human can survive longer than a few minutes underwater, and even a well-trained Olympic swimmer needs frequent gulps of air. Our brains need a constant supply of oxygen, particularly during ...

A new bioluminescence imaging technique has created highly detailed, and visually striking, images of the movement of oxygen in the brains of mice. The method, which can be easily replicated by other ...

The human brain consumes vast amounts of energy, which is almost exclusively generated from a form of metabolism that requires oxygen. While the efficient and timely delivery of oxygen is known to be ...

Luminescent protein, substrate, and oxygen all combine to create chemical chain reaction to produce light. Video shows the cortex of a mouse recorded over several minutes as the oxygen concentration ...
