Study finds only 30% of genes traditionally associated with aging set the internal clock in drosophila. The rest reflects the body's internal response to bacteria.
Researchers were able to ascertain the colors people were seeing by looking at their brain activity. The study reveals we have unique brain activity associated with specific colors.
Using single nucleus RNA sequencing, researchers have mapped 21 subtypes of motor neurons in the spinal cords of mice.
The retrieval of mitochondria via a feedback loop is vital to sustaining synaptic transmission.
An analysis of user posts from the Reddit r/selfharm forum found people who self-harm describe their activities as an "addiction", marked with characteristic cravings and an escalation in severity or tolerance.
The NIH is awarding researchers $18.8 million to help support global research into concussions and TBI.
Teenage girls who experience inadequate sleep have an increased risk of obesity than their peers who prefer to sleep early. Interventions aimed at improving sleep schedules could be useful preventative tools for curbing obesity in teenagers.
A new system for high-density EEG helps with the imaging of the origin and path of both normal and abnormal neural activity.
Researchers discovered how a group of high-frequency brain waves help us to unconsciously set expectation of the world around us and realize something is different by comparing past memories with current situations.
Data analysis from previous studies reveals if one twin is on the autism spectrum, there is a 96% chance the other twin will also be diagnosed with ASD. However, symptom severity varies greatly between the twins. Researchers estimate genetic factors contribute to only 9% of the cause of trait variation.
IgA cells that originate in the gut play a role appear to have neuroprotective properties against diseases associated with neuroinflammation, such as meningitis.
Damaged axons in mice lacking syntaphilin were able to regrow past the injury site and form functional connections with other neurons.
