Neurons—the nerve cells responsible for transmitting electrical and chemical signals throughout the body—are organized in tissue, tending to cluster together in groups according to how they function.

Watch UChicago neurobiologist Mark Sheffield and his team investigate the mechanisms of memory by studying neuron activity and connections. Their research could enhance the treatment of memory-related ...

UNIGE scientists have identified a brain circuit that may be at the root of the social difficulties experienced by ...

The way DNA folds inside the nucleus of brain cells may hold the key to understanding a devastating form of brain cancer called glioblastoma, suggests a new preclinical study. The findings offer a new ...

A new study reveals that the way DNA folds inside brain cells plays a critical role in glioblastoma, one of the deadliest forms of brain cancer.

Deep brain stimulation has been around for a few decades, but the technology has recently advanced in leaps and bounds.

D uring schooldays, many of us dreaded maths as a subject. It often seemed like a daunting task, filled with numbers and formulas that appeared impossible to crack. However, the t ...

Introduction: The Hidden Power of Habits Logics Valley advocates the study of habit dynamics for the development of a fully informed and purposeful productive life structure. Our platform presents ...

Learning is something everyone does daily—mastering new skills at work, remembering song lyrics, or following directions to ...

Connections made via apical synapses seemed to be strengthened by movement information more than those made via basal ...

Our brain's remarkable ability to form and store memories has long fascinated scientists, yet most of the microscopic mechanisms behind memory and learning processes remain a mystery.

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...
