Show Notes

Neuroscience Daily for 02 July follows 3 stories from r/neuro and r/neuroscience, moving through ventricle anatomy, neurotech funding, amyloid terminology.

1. Ventricle Anatomy

This story from r/neuro is about a rodent brain section that appears to show a gap between the hippocampus and the diencephalon. The original post asks whether that negative space is a real anatomical feature, possibly tied to cerebrospinal fluid and surrounding membranes, or whether it could just be an artifact from slicing and mounting the tissue.

2. Neurotech Funding

This story from r/neuro is about a quarter-in-review look at neurotech funding. The post argues that the strongest signal in the second quarter was not flashy brain-computer interface hype, but money flowing toward more practical neuromodulation markets like bladder treatment, pain, sleep, tremor, paralysis, and depression.

3. Amyloid Terminology

This story from r/neuro is about whether the old FAP type 1 through 4 labels for familial amyloid polyneuropathy are still used in neurology. The post comes from someone studying a board review book who says a senior colleague questioned whether that terminology had already been abandoned decades ago.
