After injury, the visual system can recover by growing new neural connections rather than replacing lost cells. Researchers ...
The same cellular renewal that keeps our bodies healthy might also fuel the growth of cancer. A UC Merced biologist has found that the brain could hold the key to stopping it. Professor Néstor Oviedo, ...
A team of neuroscientists at the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown, in Lisbon, has been able to map single neural connections over long distances in the brain. "These are the first measurements of ...
Co-written with Jai Liester. Silent synapses represent one of neuroscience's most fascinating discoveries—connections between neurons that lie dormant until activated by specific triggers. These ...
Researchers have mapped the long-range synaptic connections involved in vocal learning in zebra finches, uncovering new details about how the brain organises learned vocalisations such as birdsong.
The connection between physical movement and brain function has emerged as one of neuroscience’s most significant discoveries. The human brain, despite representing only 2% of body weight, consumes ...
For the first time, a team of researchers at the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), has ...
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to adapt and learn in response to life experiences. It can allow you to gain new skills and recover from injury and trauma. Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ...
