A new study suggests that how neurons process energy may determine whether they resist damage or begin to break down.

Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, ...

Researchers have developed a new type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. Controlling the concentration of different ions can ...

Researchers at Kyushu University have discovered that turning brain immune cells into neurons successfully restores brain function after stroke-like injury in mice. These findings, published on ...

Understanding how new neurons affect brain function throughout adulthood can offer new approaches to treating epilepsy and dementia. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

New research published in Brain, Behavior, and Immunity provides evidence that alcohol use disorder triggers a distinct type of immune response in the brain. The findings suggest that excessive ...

Nonlinear dendritic integration in single presubicular neurons provides a mechanism for combining vestibular-based head-direction signals and visual landmark signals to anchor the brain’s internal ...

A research team has developed a neuron device that holds potential for application in large-scale, high-speed superconductive neural network circuits. The device operates at high speeds with ultra-low ...
