Using in-vitro models of a specific type of brain cell, scientists have demonstrated that neurons can transform from one type ...

Cells with electrophysiological activity obtained at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) are opening up new ...

A new study reveals that the thalamus, long overshadowed by the cortex and hippocampus, plays a crucial role in shaping and ...

The cells with electrophysiological activity obtained at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) are opening up new avenues for the study of neurodegenerative diseases and the development of ...

Here, we explored how NMDARs signal in tLTD. We found that, regardless of frequency, L5 PC→PC tLTD relies on the non-ionotropic preNMDAR signaling pathway mediated by JNK2, which helps to resolve the ...

Our brains contain billions of neurons and trillions of connections, and scientists are only beginning to understand the ...

A new study reveals how a single food poisoning experience creates long-lasting aversive memories in the brain.

This implies that under certain conditions, even brain cells change, and so do their functions. This is noteworthy as it ...

In 1904, a German zoologist and memory researcher named Richard Semon made a prediction about how memories were stored in the ...

Keeping your brain sharp and alert is crucial, especially in today’s fast-paced world. While sleep, exercise, and mental ...

Years ago, as a neurology resident, Chinfei Chen, MD, PhD, cared for a 20-year-old woman who had experienced a very small stroke, affecting only the thalamus.
