Ultimately, success is dependent on its lead drug candidate, neflamapimod, an investigational, orally administered, small molecule brain penetrant that inhibits p38α in the neurons of people with ...

Major scientific discoveries can arise from simple decisions: say, by simply looking where virtually no one else has. Such ...

What a buzzkill. Smoking weed can certainly have an impact on your brain — and not just the potential for some serious ...

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

Marijuana contains more than 500 active compounds. But most people focus on two: There’s cannabidiol, or CBD, which reduces inflammation. It tells your brain you’re hungry, and makes food smell and ...

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 ...

Neurobiologists using cutting-edge visualisation techniques have revealed how changes across our synapses and neurons unfold. The findings depict how information is processed in our brain's ...

In order to follow a new behavior or retain newly introduced information, the brain's circuitry undergoes change. Such modifications are orchestrated across trillions of synapses—the connections ...

In order to follow a new behavior or retain newly introduced information, the brain’s circuity undergoes change. Such modifications are orchestrated across trillions of synapses — the ...

In our newly published research in the journal Science, we have identified some of the “rules” the brain uses to learn. The human brain is made up of billions of nerve cells. These neurons conduct ...

However, how the brain determines which synapses should be modified during learning and whether individual neurons apply the same plasticity rules uniformly across their structurally and ...
