This poster provides an illustrated overview of the top five most common disorders affecting the brain, and the protein biomarkers involved in their diagnosis, progression, and treatment.

			Scientists take first step towards digital map of the ion channels in the brain Researchers from école Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland (EPFL) have mapped the molecular workings of potassium ion channels within the brain. The study titled, “A kinetic map of the homomeric voltage-gated potassium channel (Kv) family,” was published in the latest issue of the journal Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience.

			Protein plays important roles in intracellular membrane trafficking in the brain Our bodies couldn’t operate without the central nervous system - a complex network that coordinates our actions, reflexes, and sensations. Each neuron in your brain has one long cable that snakes away from the main part of the cell.

	Does Cannabis Consumption Alter Neuropsychological Function? As the rate of cannabis consumption continues to rise, healthcare professionals and researchers around the world have become increasingly concerned as to whether this drug can alter normal neuropsychological function.

	Scientists identify group of proteins for repair of nerve fibers Scientists at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases have identified a group of proteins that help to regenerate damaged nerve cells. Their findings are reported in the journal Neuron.

	Regular exercise may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s Disease At the 2019 American Psychological Association convention, a team of researchers presented their work that showed that regular exercise could help prevent cognitive decline seen in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
