The next time you reach for a memory or make a quick choice, a storm of tiny signals races through your brain. Scientists can ...

A study tracking thousands of neurons shows how the brain separates memory content from context to support flexible recall.

Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production, a process that fails in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

A new study shows that the human brain stores what we remember and the context in which it happens using different neurons.

Humans have the remarkable ability to remember the same person or object in completely different situations. We can easily ...

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

Delivering a connection-building protein to star-shaped cells in the brain could reverse changes to neural circuits seen in ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

One of the brain’s biggest benefits from exercise – the birth of new neurons – may not even require any movement. Instead, the beneficial “packages” circulating in the blood after working out can be ...
