Researchers have investigated how highly organized patterns of neural activity emerge during development. Published in Nature Communications, an international collaboration between researchers at the ...

Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new level of detail in the ...

Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

When defending their territory, male mice typically appear threatening before launching an attack, ensuring that aggression does not unnecessarily escalate. Researchers at the University of Tsukuba ...

Neural circuits associated with three cortical regions in cognitive generalization with different manifestations from different species. (A) Emotionrelated brain regions mainly project to PFC and OFC; ...

Two independent research teams have successfully regenerated mouse brain circuits in mice using neurons grown from rat stem cells. Both studies, published April 25 in the journal Cell, offer valuable ...

When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the occupants of danger. But imagine if the device could transform into something ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and the Mechanobiology Institute (MBI) at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have discovered a novel pathway to wake up dormant neural stem cells, ...
