By using common baker’s yeast as a model system, Harvard researchers discovered how the key motor protein dynein interacts with a molecule called Lis1. Molecular…
In horses, unusual gaits have been traced to a single mutation. This endows them with a wider repertoire of gaits, showing that some seemingly complex…
It’s a biological imperative how organisms respond to threats, and humans are no exception. Humans respond to threats, perceived or real, in an instinctual way,…
In an effort to find new treatments for people suffering from neuropathic pain, Yale University neurologists have managed to repair neurons associated with traumatic…
A team of neuroscientists studied data from roughly 350 patients to gain a better understanding about what different parts of the frontal lobes do, seeing…
A newly published study from a team of researchers found that cortical damage altered the brain’s ability to activate muscles in groups, known as “muscle…
Neuroscientists have been able to create a prosthetic retina that was able to partially restore sight to blind mice. The device could be eventually adapted…
A new study by Yale University scientists found that GATA1 represses the expression of several genes that are necessary for the formation of synaptic connections…
In a mouse model, researchers at UCLA showed that growth of new connections between the brain’s neurons and functional recovery may be achieved by blocking…
In an effort to better understand the function of inhibitory neurons in the brain and their role in neurological disorders, MIT neuroscientists developed a new…
New research from neurologists at John Hopkins explains how stem cells found in the adult mouse hippocampus are able to react by “listen in” on…
A newly published study from neuroscientists at Washington University in St. Louis provides evidence that neural connections between the lateral prefrontal cortex and the rest…
In an effort to more accurately classify the criteria for mental disorders, a newly published study examines neurobiology and the links between risk factors, brain…
By comparing the brain activity during a lucid dream with the activity measured in a normal dream, scientists at the Max Planck Institute were able…
A team of scientists analyzed and compared DNA sequences from 20 patients with hemimegalencephaly, finding that de novo somatic mutations in a trio of genes…
A newly published study examined the relationship between diabetes and cognitive decline, finding that greater levels of glycosylated hemoglobin were associated with more severe cognitive…
