Genetics research leads to better understanding of children with ACC
Agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC) is a birth defect in which there is a complete or partial absence of the corpus callosum - the major pathway for communication between the brain’s two hemispheres. It occurs when the corpus callosum fails to develop normally during pregnancy.
Alcohol, drugs, and the impact on partners
When we think of issues surrounding alcohol and other drug use, we usually only consider the direct effects on the consumer. Such problematic issues, however, also heavily impact the partners, who face an increased risk of experiencing domestic violence, financial stressors, health problems and relationship challenges. And yet, these partners often do not seek help or support due to a range of barriers, such as shame, stigma, and practical constraints.
Helping Aussie kids reach their full potential
The human brain undergoes massive developmental change from infancy to early adulthood. Disruption to neurodevelopment can be dramatic, leading to clinical conditions marked by failure to attain appropriate cognitive, motor, emotional or social developmental milestones.
Enhancing Computational Neuroscience through international collaboration
We are privileged to have key international researcher, Prof Gustavo (Gus) Deco, visiting MICCN this month from Spain.
