Neurons, the uber-connected nerve cells that act as a main switchboard for the brain, are central to some incredibly complicated processes. They make it possible to think, walk, speak, and breathe.

After the storm comes the calm. But contrary to the famous proverb, the brain's neurons enter a period of calm before the neuronal storm that is an epileptic seizure. An international team of ...

To map the mammalian brain and its various functions with increasing precision, neuroscientists rely on high-resolution imaging techniques and other advanced experimental tools. These now include high ...

Researchers recorded neural activity and blood flow in mice. Opposing neuron populations predicted blood flow more accurately ...

Summary: Researchers revealed that thermal perception is governed by a singular, dual-directional neural community. By deploying high-resolution, live-tissue imaging in awake models, the team ...

Researchers at Trinity College Dublin have discovered that microglia—the main immune cells of the brain—play a critical role in maintaining the stability of neuronal networks in Alzheimer's disease.
