Researchers challenge the "efficiency" theory of the brain, showing that neurons become more coordinated and share more ...

A new study discovers how nitric oxide triggers a biochemical domino effect in the brain, leading to mTOR overactivation in ...

When you get better at a skill-recognizing a familiar face in a crowd, spotting a typo at a glance, or anticipating the next move in a game-sensory neurons in your brain become more coordinated, ...

The article from Tech Horizons reports a groundbreaking discovery by researchers at Case Western Reserve University, led by Dominique Durand, revealing a previously unknown form of neural ...

A team of scientists has identified specialized neurons in the brain that store "meal memories" detailed recollections of when and what we eat. These engrams, found in the ventral hippocampus, help ...

Binge drinking in early adult years fundamentally changes how the brain's neurons communicate, in what scientists equate to a faulty gas pedal in a car that needs more pressure applied to "go." What's ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...
