The researchers used fiber photometry systems to detect neurotransmitters, which involved injecting the mice with fluorescent ...

Researchers suggest a better understanding of the neural basis for thermoregulation during motion sickness may provide ...

As the mouse ran through the virtual maze, they recorded its neural activity to see which brain circuits were actually in use. Sure enough, the study revealed a circuit that lit up when a mouse ...

Look around, and you'll see it everywhere: the way trees form branches, the way cities divide into neighborhoods, the way the ...

Researchers have discovered how specific brain circuits process empathy, showing that witnessing others in pain activates the ...
