Neuroscientists have learned a lot—like which neurons and circuits are associated with different behaviors—by recording the ...

One of the characteristics of depression is a tendency to perceive sensory stimuli and everyday situations in an excessively ...

A new device consists of four flexible petals equipped with platinum electrodes, which curl around the spheroid when exposed to the liquid that supports the cell structure. This actuation is driven by ...

The following is a summary of “Unaltered responses of distal motor neurons to non-targeted thoracic spinal cord stimulation ...

In a new study published in Neuron00640-8), researchers uncovered how the little-known psychedelic drug DOI ...

Two-photon (2P) fluorescence imaging through gradient index (GRIN) lens-based endoscopes is fundamental to investigate the functional properties of neural populations in deep brain circuits. However, ...

Speaking, singing, coughing, laughing, yelling, yawning, chewing—we use our jaws for many purposes. Each action requires a ...

Measuring the activity of hundreds of neurons in macaque brains simultaneously provides further evidence that drift-diffusion dynamics underlie how decisions are made in the brain.

Mouse study of therapeutic food for malnourished children reveals new gut bacterial enzyme's wide-ranging functions.

When a neuron ages, it loses synaptic connections with other neurons, it is less able to transmit nerve impulses, and its metabolism is also altered. This process of neuronal aging — inevitable with ...
