- 1Stanford Medicine says the human brain is two organs●Stanford Medicine reveals human brain is two organs
Stanford Medicine is being widely cited for a claim that the human brain is actually two organs rather than one. The finding, reported by KRON 4, has drawn large public attention as audiences debate what a two-organ model would mean for neuroscience and medicine. Details of the underlying research have not been made available in the coverage cited.
- 2Hidden Brain Circuit May Explain Post-Heart-Attack Damage▼Scientists Found a Hidden Brain Circuit That May Explain Why Heart Attacks Get Worse After They Happen
Scientists report identifying a previously unknown brain circuit that could explain why heart attacks often worsen after the initial event. The finding suggests the brain may trigger processes that compound damage to the heart in the hours and days following an attack. If confirmed, the discovery could open new avenues for treating patients after a heart attack and reducing long-term harm.
- 3Precision Neuroscience raises $250 million for brain-computer interfaces▼Precision Neuroscience Raises $250 Million Series D To Advance Brain-Computer Interface Technology
Precision Neuroscience has raised $250 million in a Series D funding round to advance its brain-computer interface technology. The company, which develops implants designed to help people with neurological conditions, is part of a growing field of neurotech firms competing to bring brain-computer interfaces from the lab toward real-world medical use. The funding will support further development and commercialisation efforts.
