Exploring the interaction between sensory neurons and drug aversion can offer clues to the genetic basis of addiction.

Astrocytes, once thought to be the brain’s housekeepers, may actually be silent powerhouses of memory.

A new study published in Nature reveals how olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) achieve extraordinary precision in selecting ...

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and ...

New research from MIT suggests that astrocytes - long considered support cells - may play a key role in the human brain's ...

FMI researchers have provided new insights into how the brain organizes and processes memories, thanks to a study that looks ...

Recent discoveries in psychology and neuroscience are reshaping how we think about memory. Far from being a passive ...

Researchers have a new hypothesis for how brain cells called astrocytes might contribute to memory storage in the brain. Their model, known as dense associative memory, would help explain the brain's ...

CL1 is designed as a high-performance closed loop, where neurons interact with software in real time. The system can stay ...

They were also able to observe how neurons interact while inhibiting a seizure. These insights provide a deeper understanding of how the approach might be used to tightly regulate brain activity that ...
