A study tracking thousands of neurons shows how the brain separates memory content from context to support flexible recall.
Neuroscientists have unveiled an engineered protein that lets them watch incoming signals wash over neurons in real time, turning what used to be invisible chemical whispers into vivid, trackable ...
Humans have the remarkable ability to remember the same person or object in completely different situations. We can easily ...
Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.
The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly. The diagram of all 139,255 neurons in the adult fly brain is ...
The human brain contains approximately 87 billion neurons. On average, each of these cells make thousands of different connections to facilitate communication across the brain. Neural communication is ...
Nothing teaches us how the brain works like neurosurgery, maintains Theodore Schwartz, MD, of Weill Cornell Medicine in New York City. "We tend to think about neuroscientists, neurologists, and ...
