Brain’s reaction to virtual reality should prompt further study, suggests new research by UCLA neuroscientists
UCLA neurophysicists have found that space-mapping neurons in the brain react differently to virtual reality than they do to real-world environments. Their findings could be significant for people who use virtual reality for gaming, military, commercial, scientific or other purposes.
“The pattern of activity in a brain region involved in spatial learning in the virtual world is completely different than when it processes activity in the real world,” said Mayank Mehta, a UCLA professor of physics, neurology and neurobiology in the UCLA College and the study’s senior author. “Since so many people are using virtual r...

Injury-induced neurogenesis: mechanisms and relevance - Yu TS, Washington PM, Kernie SG.
Partial recovery from brain injury due to trauma, hypoxia, or stroke, is ubiquitous and occurs largely through unknown mechanisms. It is now well accepted that injury enhances proliferation of quiescent stem and progenitor cells in specialized niches withi...

Volumetric Measurements of Cytotoxic and Vasogenic Edema Following Traumatic Brain Injury Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (P7.156)
CONCLUSIONS: While edema over the first week after TBI is primarily vasogenic, cytotoxic edema makes a significant contribution, as well. Cytotoxic edema peaks around 3-4 days post-injury, while vasogenic edema peaks around 6-7 days post-injury. This data may be informative for the design of clinical trials of drugs targeting post-traumatic edema.

The 8 Most Important Things We've Learned About Happiness In The Past 10 Years
We're living in a golden age of happiness -- the scientific study of happiness, at least.
The field of positive psychology has exploded in growth since its inception in 1998, dramatically increasing our understanding of human flourishing. We now know more than ever about what makes us happy, how we can spread happiness socially and geographically, and how happiness affects our physical and mental health.
But it's just the beginning. In the next decade, we're likely to see not only a greater understanding of positive emotions, but also the application of this research on a practical level to improve well-being on a globa...
