Study provides valuable insights to prevalence of burnout in neurosurgery residents   When it comes to workplace stress, even doctors aren't immune to its effects. For doctors training to become neurosurgeons, burnout is common, and certain workplace stressors -- like unrewarding mentor relationships, difficult coworkers and not getting enough exposure to the operating room -- can lead to it, according to a new study from the Keck School of Medicine of USC.         Excitatory magnetic brain stimulation reduces emotional arousal to fearful faces, study shows   A new study published in Biological Psychiatry: Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuroimaging reports that processing of negative emotion can be strengthened or weakened by tuning the excitability of the right frontal part of the brain.

New research signals potential breakthrough for adults with ASD   New collaborative research out of the University of Pittsburgh School of Social Work and the Department of Psychiatry signals a potential breakthrough for adults with autism spectrum disorder.       Findings reveal dramatic landscape of genetic changes in the brain in response to visual stimulation   "Nature and nurture is a convenient jingle of words, for it separates under two distinct heads the innumerable elements of which personality is composed.       Gladstone scientists uncover how fast-spiking interneurons improve procedural learning   Even if you haven't ridden your bike in years, you probably remember how to do so without giving it much thought.       MRI scans reveal why people often become aggressive after drinking alcohol   Researchers have used magnetic resonance imaging scans that measure blood flow in the brain to better understand why people often become aggressive and violent after drinking alcohol.       USC scientists uncover cellular mechanism responsible for ALS and frontotemporal dementia   Scientists have for the first time discovered a mechanism that limits the number of "cellular janitors" in the nervous system, leading to increased risk for two neurodegenerative diseases: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia, according to a Keck School of Medicine of USC study published today in Nature Medicine.
