Neurotechnology is advancing at an unprecedented pace, with brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) at the forefront of innovation. Over the past decade, BCIs have transitioned from experimental prototypes ...

Gene delivery systems can target specific brain cells, a breakthrough that could lead to treatments for Parkinson's, ...

Blame cell death and fungi for brain decay, not TikTok. TikTok won't really make your brain rot. That doesn't happen until ...

Understanding the neurological systems that produce the world inside your head can help you to harness its transformative ...

How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are transmitted between nerve cells using molecular containers called vesicles. Now, ...

One scientist may have cracked the code to curing Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s—using a single molecular switch.

Neurons deep in the brain not only help to initiate movement—they also actively suppress it, and with astonishing precision.

In brain science terms, that’s extraordinarily high. A proportionate sample of the human brain would be 240 million cells. Within the sciences, coding and computer science can sometimes ...

A study of long-distance runners shows the brain’s remarkable ability to adapt—by burning its own fat. A marathon taxes more than just muscles—it pushes the brain to its metabolic limits.

But there is a problem: The initial McCulloch and Pitts framework is “complete rubbish,” said the science historian Matthew Cobb of the University of Manchester, who wrote the book The Idea of the ...

University of Tennessee Health Science Center, and the University of Pittsburgh will increase precision in measuring changes in brain structure and make it easier to share results for scientists ...

A study published in Cell and led by Dr. Du Jiulin's lab at the Institute of Neuroscience, Center for Excellence in Brain Science and Intelligence Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has ...
