The new study looks at how consuming vitamin B-12 led to a cascade of signals originating in the brain and triggering actions ...

Artificial neural networks are commonly employed to mimic biological activities in the brain. Synapse as the neuron connecter plays an important role in information transmission, which revises the ...

Scientists discovered that the brain keeps making new neurons even in adulthood, offering hope for brain health treatments.

A new study identified a specific group of neurons called RE Vglut2 located in the center of the brain, in the thalamus, that may help us uncover how lost sleep is recovered in animals.

Schwartz: The Jennifer Aniston neuron comes from a study done by a neurosurgeon named Itzhak Fried, who was putting electrodes into the brain to treat epilepsy.

Instead of relying on a single neuron, the brain uses the pattern of activity across many neurons to encode information to reach a decision.

Neuroscientists want to understand how individual neurons encode information that allows us to distinguish objects, like telling a leaf apart from a rock. But they have struggled to build ...

The cerebrum, especially the cerebral cortex, has long been thought to be the important part of our brain. However, the cerbrum contains less than 20 percent of the neurons in our brain. Eighty ...

Anatomy explorers have charted a new path myeloid cells use to access the brain. On 3 June in Neuron, scientists led by Lindsay Hohsfield and Kim Green, both at the University of California, Irvine, ...

Common Brain Parasite Infecting Up To 30 Percent Of Americans Disrupts Neuron Communication The discovery may lead to ways to diagnose and treat the condition that many people don't realize they have.
