In mouse brain cells, and in follow-up work involving worms and human cortical neurons, the team found that many axons ...

Dual-technique breakthrough: By merging SMLM’s ultra-high resolution with SIM’s ability to capture motion, researchers can build a richer picture of neuron structure and activity. Impact on ...

Biologists have long puzzled over why organisms with similar numbers of protein-coding genes can differ so dramatically in ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have successfully demonstrated that disrupting an eye structure long suspected ...

The odor receptors in the nose are not distributed at random but organized in a precise spatial pattern, two new studies ...

First-of-its-kind link: Northwestern engineers printed artificial neurons that sent recognizable signals to living brain ...

Neuron networks in the brains hippocampus, the memory centre, are dense with connections that appear random, but as animals mature, the networks become sparser but more structured and refined, a study ...

The analysis revealed a clear pattern. Neurons are arranged in tightly packed, overlapping horizontal stripes based on the ...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive, FDA-approved therapy that uses brief magnetic pulses to treat ...

Researchers use molecular barcoding to discover that Alston’s singing mice evolved complex vocalizations through targeted tripling of neural projections.
