Scientists harness machine learning to uncover new insights into the human brain - sunjester - 01-10-2019
Quote:An inter-disciplinary research team has successfully employed machine learning to uncover new insights into the cellular architecture of the human brain. This approach could potentially be used to assess treatment of neurological disorders, and to develop new therapies.

I think the following Is certainly a step In the right direction.
Quote:enabling neuroscientists to infer the cellular properties of different brain regions without probing the brain using surgical means
Non-surgical procedures Is slowly progressing.

I hope so.
In terms of medical discussion, when a "cure" Is found for cancer, I'd be one of the first to celebrate.

Have any of you ever noticed that mad cow disease, which was supposedly controlled a few years back, is very similar to dementia?
I did a bit of reasearch and came across this page:

I have also read that before, that mad cow disease was similar, never saw that NPR article though

Very Interesting read.
I had no Idea they're closely linked.

Personally I believe that mad cow disease is still about but the government is trying to cover it up.

I want to be a neurologist but at this rate, I will be lucky to get out of university.

The thing is, you hear about this stuff all the time. I remember like 6 years ago they were talking about having a break through restoring damaged nerves.
The human race thinks they are smarter than nature, have beat nature and can stop nature. This is the same thing. The problem is not the disease, it's causes it.
99/100 it's that you people are not living healthy and thus are not healthy. They need to stop looking for a cure especially in terms of a medicine. They need to start
to prevent the cause it (not vaccines. Other story) . Now how do you prevent cancer? Dementia? Parkingson? Living healthy.
