Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections, and as a result, in signal ...

Neurons are cells in the brain that govern signaling, and therefore are fundamental in sensory perception, emotional response, the regulation of bodily functions such as heart rate, digestion, and ...

An astrophysicist at the University of Bologna and a neurosurgeon at the University of Verona compared the network of neuronal cells in the human brain with the cosmic network of galaxies... and ...

CCN1 is a key factor for stabilizing brain circuits in adulthood, offering a therapeutic target for conditions, such as Alzheimer's and PTSD.

MRI signals don’t always match the brain’s true activity levels, overturning a core assumption used in tens of thousands of studies.

An interactive toolbox for standardizing, validating, simulating, reducing, and exploring detailed biophysical models that can be used to reveal how morpho-electric properties map to dendritic and ...

In the last five years, neuronal pentraxins have emerged as potential markers of synaptic loss. In the case of NPTX2, researchers may now be able to explain why. In the March 29 Science Translational ...

Closely related dopamine-releasing neurons in the olfactory bulb behave in fundamentally different ways depending on their physical structure.

What if we could peer into the brain and watch how it organizes information as we act, perceive, or make decisions? A new ...
