Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication is disrupted, the brain must rapidly rebalance its internal signaling to ...

An often-overlooked communication strategy for neurons might be more prevalent than previously believed. New research from biology professor Adam Miller's lab in the UO's College of Arts and Sciences ...

Researchers at IN-CSIC/UMH in Spain corrected a single gene’s expression in one population of amygdala neurons in adult mice ...

New devices replicate complex biological signals, opening a path toward brain-machine interfaces and more energy-efficient computing.

Insights from advanced imaging technology show how neurons communicate at the atomic level for the first time. For the first time, scientists at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) used advanced ...

WASHINGTON – A new finding from researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center shows that the learning process of associating cues with rewards can be altered by increased or decreased activity ...

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication is disrupted, the brain must rapidly rebalance its internal signaling to ...

For decades, textbooks told students the human brain contained 100 billion neurons. That figure, repeated so often it became ...

Glial cells are an integral part of the human nervous system. They help support and nourish nerve cells, or neurons. Several types of glial cells exist. Glial cells are the “glue” of the nervous ...
