Researchers have uncovered a shared brain cell breakdown mechanism behind Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, revealing how ...

The progression of Alzheimer's disease is poorly understood, but new research may have found how the plaques that cause it ...

A team at Carnegie Mellon University is helping kids understand artificial intelligence with a soft, squishy, LED-lit neural ...

The authors used a Bayesian modeling framework to fit behavior and serotonin neuron activity to reward history across multiple timescales. A key goal was to distinguish value coding from other ...

Researchers have developed a new type of artificial neuron that physically emulates the electrochemical processes of ...

Neural networks are algorithmic systems created based on the principle of the human nervous system. They consist of many ...

Neuronal synchronization refers to the temporal coordination of activity across populations of neurons, a process that underlies coherent information processing, supports the encoding of diverse ...

The brain's mechanisms for repairing injuries caused by trauma or degenerative diseases are not yet known in detail. Now, a study from the University of Barcelona describes a new strategy based on ...

Robin Erickson has been covering high school sports since 2023 after graduating from Carroll College with a degree in Health Sciences. He began working in data operations at High School On SI before ...

“Illusions are fun, but they are also a gateway to perception,” says Hyeyoung Shin, assistant professor of neuroscience at Seoul National University. Shin is the first author of a new study in Nature ...

We often think of memory as stable—a mental archive that stores experiences in neat, retrievable files. But what if those files quietly shift positions, even when the original experience hasn’t ...

For at least six decades, neuroscientists have been arguing over a big, foundational question: Do adult brains make new neurons? This process of “neurogenesis” had been shown in other adult animals, ...
