Neural circuits in the brain are highly sophisticated biological systems, orchestrating ultra-fast, parallel computations ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Trying to document how single brain cells participate in networks that govern behavior is a daunting task. Brain probes called Neuropixels, which feature high-density silicon arrays, have enabled ...

Researchers at the University Hospital Bonn and the University of Bonn are reconstructing neural networks in the laboratory and investigating new mechanisms of signal transmission in the brain ...

Why do we sometimes keep eating even when we're full and other times turn down food completely? Why do we crave salty things ...

Electrophysiology has emerged as a central pillar in the intersection of neuroscience and the treatment of neuropsychiatric ...

Brain stimulation might sound like some Frankensteinian demonstration from a Victorian science fair. But in reality, it is a contemporary technique making a huge impact in neuroscience by addressing a ...

Disrupting left superior frontal sulcus selectively impaired perceptual but not value-based decisions, revealing segregated ...

New research from the University of St Andrews, the University of Copenhagen and Drexel University has developed AI computational models that predict the degeneration of neural networks in amyotrophic ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. William A. Haseltine, Ph.D., covers genomics and regenerative medicine A recent study from Cell inches us closer to understanding ...
