An interaction between two proteins points to a molecular basis for memory. But how do memories last when the molecules that ...

The cerebrum, especially the cerebral cortex, has long been thought to be the important part of our brain. However, the cerbrum contains less than 20 percent of the neurons in our brain. Eighty ...

In contrast, plasticity in basal dendrites was linked to the neuron’s overall output, strengthening or weakening depending on how synapse activity aligned with global action potential firing.

A mouse watching The Matrix changed what we know about our brains - How we think, feel, see, talk and move are due to neurons ...

Thanks to a mouse watching clips from The Matrix, scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date, a diagram of the wiring connecting 84,000 neurons.

Movement is a complex process governed by a network of neuronal circuits spread across multiple regions of the nervous system ...

Under typical monosynaptic rabies tracing conditions about 40% of first-order presynaptic synapses to cortical neurons are labeled and spread efficiency does not vary depending on the distance of ...
