Image Press coverage | Dec 12, 2018 The Washington Post I was my dad’s caregiver through his fatal illness. I had no idea I’d be at risk... Studies suggest the role of caregiver can put people at risk for developing PTSD. Image Research news | Dec 12, 2018 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford researchers develop a method to watch as neurons fire without invasive ... Brain scientists have plenty of ways to track the activity of individual neurons in the brain, but they’re all invasive. Now, Stanford researchers have found a way to literally watch neurons fire – no electrodes or chemical modifications required. Image Research news | Dec 10, 2018 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford researchers found that receiving genetic information can alter a person... Simply learning of a genetic risk can alter a person’s physiology, a recent study found, causing people to perform less well on exercise tests or altering hormones that indicate fullness after a meal. Image Press coverage | Dec 10, 2018 Science Just thinking you have poor endurance genes changes your body Simply telling people they had a gene that lowers exercise ability made them perform worse on a treadmill.
