Researchers have discovered a unique pattern of scarring in the brains of those who were exposed to blast brain injuries that differs from those exposed to other types of head injury.
Motor areas of the cerebral cortex are dedicated to sonar production and wing control in Egyptian fruit bats.
Researchers report they have mapped a portion of a mouse brain that could help explain which circuit disruptions may occur in Autism and Huntington's disease.
In the cerebral cortex, when somatostatin neurons become active, other nearby somatostatin neurons became active as well. The distance over which somatostatin neurons shared activity expanded in the posterior parietal cortex.
Researchers shed light on how sleep spindles help secure memory storage and reactivation.
Researchers have discovered a new molecular ‘switch’ that controls the properties of neurons in response to changes in the activity of their neural network.
Differences in activity between the left and right superior colliculi help researchers predict whether an animal was seeing an event.
Researchers have identified a specific genetic variant that appears to help facilitate empathy driven by fear in rodents.
A new study sheds light on the movement of neurons throughout the brain during fetal development. Researchers also found the two hemispheres of the human cortex separated earlier in development than previously thought.
Dogs possess significantly more cortical neurons than cats, a new study reports.
According to new research, there is greater connectivity between certain brain regions in people who successfully quit smoking.
Researchers track the connectivity patterns of chandelier cells.
