The universe has no brain. It has no gray matter, no nervous system, no neurons firing electrical impulses—and yet, that ...

A team of over 150 scientists has achieved what once seemed impossible: a complete wiring and activity map of a tiny section ...

The brain learns due to neurons using multiple mechanisms to store knowledge according to a new study by researchers.

Connections made via apical synapses seemed to be strengthened by movement information more than those made via basal ...

I think it's important to recognize not only how fake science can degrade medicine and exploit health care consumers, but ...

How do we learn new things? Neurobiologists using cutting-edge visualization techniques have revealed how changes across our synapses and neurons unfold. The findings depict how information is ...

Researchers mapped 84,000 neurons in a mouse brain after it watched video clips. The 3D map links structure and activity.

From a cubic millimeter of brain tissue, scientists have constructed a precise, 3D map of the activity in a mouse’s brain, detailing 84,000 neurons and more than 500 million synapses.

These mysterious structures have revolutionized our understanding of brain plasticity and development while opening new therapeutic avenues for various neuropsychiatric conditions. Silent synapse ...

Researchers have created the largest and most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, by mapping cells in a cubic millimetre of a mouse’s brain tissue 1. In a landmark achievement, the ...

Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a ...
