First-ever image of an open NMDA receptor reveals clues to how neurodegenerative disease occurs
When it comes to brain proteins, small changes can make a dramatic difference. Researchers studying NMDA ...
An intriguing new hypothesis suggests that electric fields generated by neurons in the brain could, in turn, be influencing its molecular infrastructure, allowing our brains to functionally adapt to ...
Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...
Comparing a map of the neurons in a nematode worm - the connectome - with a map of how signals travel across those neurons ...
Swiss team has uncovered a new role for astrocytes in brain computation. Using advanced microscopy, researchers found that ...
Cellular differentiation of stem cells into specialized cells requires many steps, including division, to create more cells; fate determination, which is a commitment to a specific lineage or ...
