The COVID-19 pandemic has presented both challenges and opportunities for medical training. Remote learning technology has become increasingly important in several fields. A new study finds that in a remote environment, an artificial intelligence (AI) tutoring system can outperform expert human instructors.
A new research collaboration between The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital), Takeda Development Center Americas, Inc. and Roche will enable large-scale analysis of patient data to potentially find promising targets for drug development in neurological diseases.
To support听, Pfizer commissioned听听to record a series of podcast interviews with experts working within clinical and medical disciplines. The objective was to share perspectives on the real-world impact and benefit of open science for patients and key stakeholders.
A new study from The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital) and eight collaborating international epilepsy centers has developed a simple web-based application clinicians can use to predict which patients will not benefit from an invasive diagnostic work-up, preventing unnecessary, invasive procedures, saving time for patients and the clinical team, and freeing up overburdened health resources.
The COVID-19 pandemic has tested our psychological limits. Some have been more affected than others by the stress of potential illness and the confusion of constantly changing health information and new restrictions. A new study finds the pandemic may have also impaired people鈥檚 cognitive abilities and altered risk perception, at a time when making the right health choices is critically important.
Professor Robert Zatorre has been recognized for his work by La Fondation Pour l鈥橝udition, a research institute and hearing advocacy organization based in Paris, France. He is this year鈥檚 recipient of the Grand Prix Scientifique, which recognizes leading research into the human auditory system.
The Neuro鈥檚 director, Dr. Guy Rouleau, has been elected first vice-president of the World Federation of Neurology. The first vice-president and other WFN officers are elected by delegates from its 122 neurological societies around the world.
The mission of the WFN is to foster quality neurology and brain health worldwide by promoting global neurological education and training with emphasis placed firmly on under-resourced parts of the world.
People with rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder act out their dreams. While sleeping safely in bed, for example, they might throw up their arms to catch an imaginary ball, or try to run from an illusory assailant. Such actions are more than just a nuisance. People with the disorder have a 50 to 80 per cent chance of developing a serious neurodegenerative disease within a decade of diagnosis.
A new study shows that artificial intelligence networks based on human brain connectivity can perform cognitive tasks efficiently.
Maria Gobbo is the latest recipient of the ALS fellowship named in his honour
In 2010, former Montreal Alouette and 9I制作厂免费 physical education instructor Tony Proudfoot passed away from ALS. Ten years later, his legacy lives on in a fund that helps train and support the next generation of leaders fighting this disease.
Leading antibody reagent and knockout cell line manufacturers team up to address life science reproducibility crisis
YCharOS Inc., an open science company with the mission of characterizing commercially available antibody reagents for all human proteins, is pleased to announce the publication of its first characterization data and formation of its Industry Advisory Committee (IAC).
To make sense of complex environments, brain waves constantly adapt, compensating for drastically different sound and vision processing speeds
听
Every high-school physics student learns that sound and light travel at very different speeds. If the brain did not account for this difference, it would be much harder for us to tell where sounds came from, and how they are related to what we see.
The BIC is pleased to share this 听presentation from Helmholtz International BigBrain Analytics Learning Laboratory,听supported by HBHL.
