The brain is constantly bombarded with information, and focus depends on its ability to filter out distractions and detect what matters. Attention disorders such as attention-deficit hyperactivity ...

Prefrontal cortex biopsies taken for research purposes during deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedures appeared to be safe, new research has suggested. Investigators found no significant differences in ...
