Scientists recreate blood-brain barrier defect outside the body
Scientists can’t make a living copy of your brain outside your body. That’s the stuff of science fiction. But in
Researchers map sound, response and reward anticipation in mouse brain
University of Oregon neuroscientists report that two areas of the mouse brain combine representations of what is heard and anticipated,
In mice, single population of stem cells contributes to lifelong hippocampal neurogenesis
Scientists once thought that mammals entered adulthood with all of the neurons they would ever have, but studies from the
Healthy fats improve nerve function in obese mice: Data support further investigation of diets rich in monounsaturated fats as potential treatment for common diabetes complication
Swapping dietary saturated fats for monounsaturated fats reverses nerve damage and restores nerve function in male mice, finds new preclinical
Open-source software tracks neural activity in real time: The tool, called CaImAn, replaces the process of manually tracking the location and activity of neurons
Tracking the firings of individual neurons is like trying to discern who is saying what in a football stadium full
Synaptic logic for connections between two brain hemispheres
Researchers at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have developed a new combination of technologies that allows them to
Hold the fries! How calorie content makes you rethink food choices
Seeing pictures of food with calorie information not only makes food less appetizing but it also appears to change the
Is foraging behaviour regulated the same way in humans and worms?
Finding food and staying at a food source are crucial survival strategies in the animal world. But how are external
Biologists use ‘mini retinas’ to better understand connection between eye and brain: Research could lead to cell replacement therapies that could restore sight
IUPUI biologists are growing ‘mini retinas’ in the lab from stem cells to mimic the growth of the human retina.
