One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they react during times of stress, such as when the temperature gets ...
The parasite that may already live in your brain can infect the very immune cells trying to destroy it, but new UVA Health ...
Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...
A new ‘biomimetic’ model of brain circuits and function at multiple scales produced naturalistic dynamics and learning, and ...
A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...
A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...
For more than a century, Alzheimer’s disease has been framed as irreversible. Once memory and thinking decline, recovery has ...
Nonlinear dendritic integration in single presubicular neurons provides a mechanism for combining vestibular-based head-direction signals and visual landmark signals to anchor the brain’s internal ...
Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...
An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...
Tiny tweaks in DNA folding can have big effects. A study from Umeå University shows that even the most subtle changes in DNA's shape have an important influence on gene activity and energy production.
