Neuroscientists have long listened to the brain’s electrical spikes, but those loud crackles are only the final output of a ...

A novel electrode platform detects dopamine from single living brain organoids in real time, enabling non-destructive ...

Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to just their outgoing signals).

Researchers have developed a new way to decipher the language of the brain by listening to and recording the fastest and ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

Researchers have long believed — and the authors of a new study hypothesized — that schizophrenics have lower brain levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin, and that those lower levels are associated ...

The peptide commonly referred to as SNAP-8 (acetyl octapeptide-3) is a synthetic fragment derivative of SNAP-25, engineered to modulate the SNARE complex and potentially support neurotransmitter ...

A vesicle, only a few nanometers in size and filled with neurotransmitters, approaches a cell membrane, fuses with it, and releases its chemical messengers into the synaptic cleft—making them ...

Researchers in Okinawa set out to discover the neural basis of how we switch our behavior when situations change.

The human brain contains nearly 86 billion neurons, constantly exchanging messages like an immense social media network, but neurons do not work alone – glial cells, neurotransmitters, receptors, and ...

Upon energy restriction, an unusual release of the neurotransmitter glutamate can be observed. The overabundance of glutamate ultimately causes damages to nerve cells. Upon energy restriction, an ...
