In a new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers have identified the neurogenic ...

When HHMI Investigator Amita Sehgal started studying sleep 25 years ago, the topic elicited a yawn from most biologists. "In the year 2000, if I had suggested to my department that we hire people ...

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — A Texas A&M University researcher received a multi-million-dollar grant to advance brain cell ...

Discover how TMS therapy targets depression at the source. A deep dive into the physics, safety protocols, and FDA-cleared ...

Memories are thought to be stored in sparse groups of neurons called engrams. These are the cells that switch on during learning and can later switch on again during recall. In physiological aging and ...

Researchers applied the Ribo-STAMP method to map protein translation in nearly 20,000 mouse hippocampal cells. The study ...

Researchers have identified the neurogenic progenitor that give rise to dopaminergic neurons, the primary neurons affected in Parkinson’s disease.

Researchers from The Universities of Manchester and Birmingham have identified the exact nerve cells in the brain that drive ...

In October 2023, Neuroscience News reported research showing that the hippocampus does much more than store memories. Drawing ...

New experiments reveal how astrocytes tune neuronal activity to modulate our mental and emotional states. The results suggest that neuron-only brain models, such as connectomes, leave out a crucial ...

A new study has demonstrated how networks of spiking nanolasers could emulate a key principle of brain function: to imagine ...

Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal ...
