Using machine learning, researchers have developed a brain network marker that predicts depression symptoms based on functional MRI data. Furthermore, they found common brain networks between symptoms of depression and diagnosis of major depressive disorder.
The Japan Neuroscience Society (JNSS) has developed the experimental guidelines for the use of macaque monkeys and common marmosets in neuroscience research.
A group of researchers including Yukiko Hori from the University of Tokyo has developed a novel photo-oxygenation method that has the potential to eliminate amyloid aggregates found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients.
Takuya Hayashi in RIKEN, Japan, and other scientists in the US, France, UK, and China have started the international research project to elucidate primate brain structure, function, and connectivity.
