Neurons found in one of the oldest regions of the brain may control when we stop eating a meal, new research in mice hints.

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

Advancements could enhance perceptual capabilities in robotics. Artificially engineered biological processes, such as ...

Parkinson's disease primarily affects neurons in the brain that produce dopamine (depicted here). Now, RIKEN researchers have found that ...

A University of Ottawa neuroscientist has led a Canadian research team to reveal important new insights into the activation dynamics of neural stem cells (NSCs). These are the stem cells that build ...

Alcohol use disorder, which affects over 10% of Americans, can lead to persistent and serious insomnia. Difficulties falling ...

A high-resolution spatial map of the human hypothalamus makes it possible to identify specific cells, determine their exact ...

Microplastics are accumulating in human brains at alarming rates, with concentrations rising 50% in the past eight years. Researchers found plastic fragments as small as 200 nanometers, possibly ...

Brain implants, made from small clusters of brain cells, could help restore neural pathways damaged by Parkinson’s disease.

The 3D-printed brain-like model from TU Delft promotes structured neuronal networks, offering a new tool for investigating ...
