New findings reveal that certain areas of the brain influence how neurons transmit signals and control their range.

Researchers have successfully developed a fully embedded wireless brain neural signal recorder. This innovative technology enables real-time recording of brain neural signals generated by the ...

Here, we report that glycolysis controls astrocyte-synapse contact. In the Drosophila larval dopaminergic (DAergic) circuit, blocking astrocyte glycolysis stimulated perisynaptic ensheathment by ...

Ordinary human cells, not just neurons, respond more strongly to memory signals when they arrive in spaced bursts rather than ...

MIT researchers built a biologically detailed AI model of a brain circuit that unexpectedly predicted a class of neurons firing before mistakes, later confirmed in decade-old macaque data. The finding ...

Contrary to previous assumptions, nerve cells in the human neocortex are wired differently than in mice. Those are the findings of a new study conducted by Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin and ...

A large barrier in neuroscience is the ability for researchers to conduct studies on a live, functioning brain without surgery or implanting probes. Today researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of ...

In mouse brain cells, and in follow-up work involving worms and human cortical neurons, the team found that many axons ...
