Mapping a memory trace.** NIH-funded researchers used 3-D electron microscopy and AI to reconstruct the hippocampal “engram,” revealing multi-synaptic boutons and heavy astrocyte support—evidence that challenges the classic “neurons that fire together wire together” model. National Institute of Mental Health
How engrams mature.** A 2025 review details the molecular choreography that stabilises episodic memories, from early synaptic tagging through long-range systems consolidation. PubMed
TMS consensus update.** An April 2025 expert review spanning 2,400 studies confirms TMS’s safety (≤0.1 % seizure risk) and up to 83 % response in real-world depression; rapid theta-burst sessions now take only minutes. McGovern Medical School
Precision TMS in one week.** UCLA’s MRI-guided, robot-assisted “5×5” protocol (five sessions a day for five days) is delivering remission within a week for many depression patients. UCLA Health
PEMF + exercise trial.** A December 2024 RCT will test pulsed-electromagnetic-field therapy added to rehab for chronic ankle instability, with outcomes tracked to 12 months. PubMed
Stroke rehabilitation.** A July 2025 bibliometric review shows accelerating global research on TMS for motor, cognitive and swallowing recovery, urging integration with AI and brain-computer interfaces. PMC
Concussion care.** *NEJM* Clinical Practice (Jan 2025) recommends starting tailored aerobic exercise within 2–10 days—replacing “strict rest”—to speed recovery and curb persistent symptoms. Jacobs School of Medicine
Endometriosis breakthroughs.** March 2025 roundup reports (1) liquid-biopsy biomarkers, (2) integrin-targeted imaging that spots deep lesions, and (3) dichloroacetate cutting pain in 79 % of trial participants. MDPI Blog
