The brain is like an ecosystem—thousands of different types of cells connect to form one big, interdependent web. This ...

A new study challenges a decades-old assumption in neuroscience by showing that the brain uses distinct transmission sites -- not a shared site -- to achieve different types of plasticity.

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

The venous system maintains the health of our brains by removing deoxygenated blood and other waste products, but its complexity and variability have made scientific study difficult. Now, a UC ...
