The dominant theory in neuroscience has been that the sensory processing circuits in our brain are finalized in early ...

Researchers identify that the brain's sensory checkpoint (TRN) undergoes a molecular "upgrade" in adulthood for high-resolution perception.

A new McGill University study has found a direct link between age-related declines in neuron activity in the cerebellum and ...

Neurons placed inside engineered living bodies built from frog cells self-organize, become active, and reshape movement ...

By examining mice across the lifespan, researchers showed that age lowers firing rates in cerebellar Purkinje cells, leading to poorer motor coordination. Reversing this decline improved performance, ...

The trial-to-trial variability of neuronal responses and the correlated response variability among neurons are modulated by visual stimulus size in a manner that depends on cortical layer, suggesting ...

Researchers say study identifies location of oligodendrocytes in the brain, and integrates information about gene expression and the structural features of neurons.

Adults whose brains still have strong neuron production seem to have better memory and cognitive function than do those in ...

Discover why we stop scratching. Researchers identify spinal cord neurons that signal when an itch is satisfied, offering hope for new chronic itch treatments.

The genetic network of BTB zinc finger transcription factors and Eip93F is crucial for Kenyon cell identity regulation and neuronal function acquisition in the construction of Drosophila mushroom ...

New research suggests that super-agers generate twice as many neurons as typical older adults. But you don't have to be a ...
