Estrogen sets up physical differences in the brains of males and females during development, a new study reports.
Neuron activity in the locus coeruleus spikes when a mother mouse touches her pup to retrieve it.
Wave patterns provide a deeper insight into sleep, consciousness, and attention.
Researchers implicate neurons in the anterior insula cortex as a driving force for motivation in the brain, according to a new mouse study.
Researchers have identified a pre-programmed neural circuit in the basolateral amygdala of mice that processes both positive and negative stimuli.
Study reveals the globus pallidus plays a critical role in fear processing.
Testing multiple computational models of the nervous system, researchers discover that just because a model can make accurate predictions about data, this doesn't always translate into the underlying logic of the biological system it represents.
Chandelier cells have an unusual direct method of communication. Unlike other neurons, chandelier cells connect directly to the part of a target neuron that initiates a spike.
Researchers explain how odor habituation occurs. Familiar smells can be ignored in favor of new odors that are faint, but important.
Study investigates whether overactive immune cells that produce neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are responsible for more severe and lethal cases of coronavirus.
Microscopy study sheds light on the function of two calcium homeostasis modulators.
Just like humans, mice fidget more while deep in thought.
