The cerebral cortex, the outer layer of the mammalian brain, is known to play a key role in numerous higher-level processes, including language, memory and decision-making. While countless studies ...

Researchers discover rotating spiral brain waves that travel across cortical networks, acting as a space-and-time clock for ...

A new study upends movement disorder research, proving Purkinje cells are a poor biomarker for deep cerebellar nuclei.

A connectome 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 is a representation of neuronal connections among involved neurons, neuronal populations and brain regions. Connectomes have been intensively studied at various scales, ...

Sleep is one of the most widely studied states of consciousness, known to play a role in physical recovery, the processing of ...

Heterogeneity among somatosensory neurons is necessary for internal and external sensation. Precise patterns of gene transcription orchestrated through enhancer activation maintain heterogeneity. Thus ...

The same memory can feel vivid and accessible one moment, yet stubbornly out of reach the next - even when the memory itself remains intact.

The ability to sense regular patterns is fundamental to making sense of the world. Stimulus from the environment activates a group of neurons in the frontoparietal region of the brain called the ...

Migraine drug flunarizine reversed abnormal microRNA patterns in SMA cells and mice, indicating the drug may help protect ...

When a person thinks, speaks, eats, walks, or just sits comfortably with all bodily systems functioning normally, the billions of cells that make up the brain and the rest of the nervous system are ...
