Edition 5 - Cognitive Neuroscience
Cognitive neuroscience investigates how the brain processes information and how this relates to cognitive functions such as perception, memory, attention, language, and decision-making. In clinics, it enables precise diagnosis and tailored treatments for mental health disorders by unraveling the brain's intricate workings.
This edition encompasses diverse perspectives, ranging from the impact of pregnancy on the brain to memory processes to the conceptualization of innovation, while also shedding light on the role of prefrontal cortex neurovascular unit cells in post-stroke dementia, potentially uncovering new biomarkers and drug targets also associated with cognition in dementia.
