Historically, scientists studied brain organization properties by examining tissue samples from post-mortem or by using ...

A recent study highlights the role of interneurons in the brain, functioning as traffic controllers that regulate other brain ...

The tagging system lit up all astrocytes that expressed the c-Fos gene in response to fear conditioning. Williamson’s team ...

A study led by Dr. Marco Bocchio in the Durham University Department of Psychology reveals how specific brain cells called ...

Scientists have created a game-changing 'Alzheimer's in a dish' model that allows for faster and more accurate testing of ...

We can now collect cell-count data across whole animal brains quantifying recent neuronal activity, gene expression, or anatomical connectivity. This is a powerful approach since it is a multi-region ...

A team from the Champalimaud Foundation (CF) has pinpointed a critical neural circuit for sexual rejection, identifying a set ...

Researchers have mapped how different brain cell types align with functional networks in the human cortex, advancing our ...

Researchers at Rutgers have made significant strides in understanding the cellular foundations of brain networks, identifying ...

Interneurons work a bit like the brain's traffic controllers where they regulate the firing of other brain cells, acting like a sophisticated brake system. This control is critical because when ...

Researchers have uncovered the crucial role of a protein subunit, INST10, in guiding pluripotent stem cells toward becoming ...

Researchers have developed a technique to enhance the effectiveness of cell transplantation therapy for stroke or traumatic ...
