January 29, 2013 - Addiction to cigarettes, drugs and other stimulants has been linked in the past to the brain鈥檚 frontal lobes, but now there is scientific evidence that indicates where in the frontal cortex addiction takes hold and how.聽 Addiction could be a result of abnormal communication between two areas of the frontal lobes linked to decision-making.聽 The discovery will undoubtedly stimulate clinical work on new therapies for millions of people who suffer from addiction.

January 28, 2013 - A revolutionary technology has the ability to detect and diagnose Alzheimer鈥檚 disease with unprecedented accuracy. The computerized technique known as SNIPE analyzes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to capture patterns of atrophy specific to the disease in brain structures, specifically the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex. Diagnosing Alzheimer鈥檚 disease (AD) is still an inexact science, relying mainly on the patient's symptoms and performance on memory tests. Detecting pre-clinical AD, before symptoms appear, is extremely difficult.

November 27, 2012 - Clinician-scientists take a unique, integrated approach that is essential to advancing science and medicine. Problems encountered in the clinic inspire research and new findings from the labs are directly applied to patients鈥 needs. The integrated model is a hallmark of the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital 鈥 The Neuro, at 缅北强奸 and the MUHC and is now being replicated worldwide. Two clinician-scientists at The Neuro have been awarded grants today to further research on Parkinson鈥檚 disease and HIV/AIDS.

Microglia

In many pathologies of the nervous system, there is a common event - cells called microglia are activated from surveillant watchmen into fighters.聽 Microglia are the immune cells of the nervous system, ingesting and destroying pathogens and damaged nerve cells. Until now little was known about the molecular mechanisms of microglia activation despite this being a critical process in the body.

Have you ever wondered why some people find it so much easier to stop smoking than others? New research shows that vulnerability to smoking addiction is shaped by our genes. A study from the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital - The Neuro, 缅北强奸 shows that people with genetically fast nicotine metabolism have a significantly greater brain response to smoking cues than those with slow nicotine metabolism. Previous research shows that greater reactivity to smoking cues predicts decreased success at smoking cessation and that environmental cues promote increased nicotine intake in animals and humans. 聽 This new finding that nicotine metabolism rates affect the brain鈥檚 response to smoking may lead the way for tailoring smoking cessation programs based on individual genetics.<!--break-->
