The teenage brain isn’t just trimming connections—it’s secretly building powerful new neural hotspots that may shape the mind ...

The next time you reach for a memory or make a quick choice, a storm of tiny signals races through your brain. Scientists can ...

A study tracking thousands of neurons shows how the brain separates memory content from context to support flexible recall.

The scientists have discovered that the adolescent brain does more than prune old connections. During the teen years, it actively builds dense new clusters of synapses in specific parts of neurons.

Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.

A team from UNIGE has shown that neurons positioned in the wrong place can still perform their function without disrupting ...

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.

Humans have the remarkable ability to remember the same person or object in completely different situations. We can easily ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

After nine years of painstaking work, an international team of researchers on Wednesday published a precise map of the vision centers of a mouse brain, revealing the exquisite structures and ...

Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...
