Neuroscientists demonstrate how the brain improves its ability to distinguish between similar experiences, findings that could lead to treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and other memory…
Short, toxic RNAs kill brain cells and may allow Alzheimer’s to develop. New finding to understand brain cell loss in neurodegenerative disease Increasing protective short…
Across mammalian species, brain waves are slower in deep cortical layers, while superficial layers generate faster rhythms. Throughout the brain’s cortex, neurons are arranged in…
A new study suggests different species may rely on a shared principle for neural network formation. In all species, brain function relies on an intricate…
A novel, noninvasive behavioral test by Caltech researchers helps detect early Alzheimer’s risk by analyzing how individuals process distractions, offering a breakthrough in early disease…
Study sheds light on TAAR1, pointing to potential enhancement opportunities in drug development. Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have uncovered…
Scientists uncover a neural basis for “sunk cost” pride. Ahab hunting down Moby Dick. Wile E. Coyote chasing the Road Runner. Learning Latin. Walking over…
People with PTSD have a cerebellum about 2% smaller than unaffected adults, especially in areas that influence emotion and memory. Adults with posttraumatic stress disorder…
Discovery could be useful in developing new therapies for multiple sclerosis, neurodegenerative conditions, and brain cancer. New research from Oregon Health & Science University for…
Scientists from UC San Diego may have solved the century-old mystery of why this controversial treatment works. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), formerly known as electroshock therapy,…
A new neural implant revolutionizes brain activity monitoring, combining surface and deep brain data acquisition in a minimally invasive manner. Scientists at the University of…
Recent research suggests that a number of neuronal characteristics, traditionally believed to stem from the cell body or soma, may actually originate from processes in…
Synthetic serum marker enables non-invasive neural monitoring. The brain, being the most protected organ in the body, is encased within a highly complex and nearly…
A new study finds that microglia with mutant TREM2 protein reduce brain circuit connections, promote inflammation, and contribute to Alzheimer’s pathology in other ways. A…
In new research, Boston University neuroscientist Dr. Steve Ramirez and collaborators examine the dynamic nature of fear responses in varied environments and their impacts. In…
A recent study uncovers the role of FAM53C in regulating DYRK1A, offering new insights into the cellular mechanisms of Down syndrome and potential clinical implications….
High-resolution atlas charts neural neighborhoods for more than 5,300 cell types. Six years and 32 million cells later, scientists have created the first full cellular…
