Not all brain cells are found in the brain. For example, a team at Caltech has identified two distinct types of neurons in the abdomens of mice that appear to control different aspects of digestion.

Super-resolution microscopes have revealed a whole new type of connection between neurons in mouse and human brains. In the ...

Researchers showed that large motor neurons face high metabolic stress, making them more prone to degeneration. Reducing this ...

Researchers have identified a group of nerve cells in the mouse brain that are involved in creating negative emotional states and chronic stress. The neurons, which have been mapped with a combination ...

New research has uncovered a way to 'hack' neurons' internal clocks to speed up their development. The approach promises to accelerate research into neurological disease. The neurons that make up our ...
