UCSF’s research has been ranked among the top in the world, according to the latest U.S. News & World Report’s Best Global Universities 2022 rankings.
Three adolescents who had mild or asymptomatic COVID-19 developed sudden severe psychiatric symptoms. A recent study into their immune responses identifies a potential mechanism by which these symptoms emerge.
A team of UCSF scientists have identified the specific neurons and signaling pathway that make sexually receptive females of many species more active at the time of ovulation.
Two new studies of the developing human brain are helping researchers reconcile a long-held debate over how the brain forms.
UCSF Health physicians have successfully treated a patient with severe depression by tapping into the specific brain circuit involved in depressive brain patterns and resetting them using the equivalent of a pacemaker for the brain.
Glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor and among the most treatment-resistant cancers. In the last 15 years, numerous attempts to develop new drugs for glioblastoma have failed.
