Attacking Parkinson’s Before It Begins
A growing number of researchers and clinicians believe the key to addressing the cause of Parkinson’s—and identifying a cure—may be found in studying the nonmotor symptoms that occur before neurological symptoms of Parkinson’s emerge.Stem Cells for ALS, From Lower to Upper Motor Neurons
After promising findings in a safety trial for patients with ALS focusing on stem cell injections in lower motor neurons, researchers are now studying the investigative therapy in the motor cortex.Turning Complex Procedures Into Learning Opportunities
When patients undergo procedures such as deep-brain stimulation for Parkinson’s or implantation of temporary electrodes for epilepsy diagnostics, scientists from an internationally recognized leading research group in human cognitive neurophysiology are at the bedside—investigating the mechanisms of learning, memory and decision-making at the single-neuron and network level—and driving the science forward.The Human Side of Artificial Intelligence
Cedars-Sinai spine surgeons, in collaboration with the Department of Computational Biomedicine, have made exciting progress in their machine-learning algorithms to predict post-surgical pain duration, medication dependency, readmission rates and other key outcomes in spine surgery.An Expanded View Into Multiple Sclerosis and Alzheimer’s Disease
Cutting-edge imaging techniques have the potential to revolutionize diagnosis, disease prediction and progression tracking for a wealth of neurological conditions, including multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.The Human Side of AI: Predicting Spine Surgery Outcomes
