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

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

Non-invasive and invasive neurostimulation have been used to probe and shift cortical excitability, elicit evoked responses, and alter behavior and perception. For instance, neurostimulation can be ...

In healthy rodent brains, newborn neurons are constantly generated in the stem cell niche, known as the subventricular zone ...

When a neuron ages, it loses synaptic connections with other neurons, it is less able to transmit nerve impulses, and its ...

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 ...
