We can replace joints, lenses, even organs—but not the brain. As neuroscience unravels the mechanisms of neurodegeneration, ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

Discarded Neuron e-scooter helmets have become a permanent fixture of the Townsville landscape being almost as iconic as ...

Researchers have engineered a next-generation glutamate sensor, iGluSnFR4, capable of detecting the faintest incoming ...

Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes — think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke — is a behavior known as covert ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the human brain supports numerous advanced capabilities for centuries. The ...

Scientists at the University of Colorado Anschutz have discovered that while brain neuron changes, including cell loss, may ...

For over a century, the neuron doctrine — which states that the neuron is the structural and functional unit of the nervous system — has provided a conceptual foundation for neuroscience. This ...

A Norwegian startup has developed a technology to help study and optimize the power grid, and it all starts with "magic balls ...
