Learn more about the “glue sniffer” protein, which is able to detect brain cells’ incoming chemical signals, and what that ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections, and as a result, in signal ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By ...

Neurons are famously fragile, yet some injured cells manage to hang on, stabilize, and even reconnect. That quiet resilience ...

Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to just their ...

Once thought to play a supporting function in the brain, new research shows non-neuronal astroglial cells perform a leading role in regulating the activity of neurons and their connections. In 2019, ...

Imagine you're navigating a city like New York, or any other that's laid out on a grid. Suppose you run into a roadblock as you're heading north. How do you know that you can turn to your left, say, ...
