Researchers have identified specific chemical changes in the brain that drive nicotine addiction. The findings could lead to new treatments to help break the addiction.
Rockefeller University researchers reveal Huntington's neurons are much larger than healthy cells.
Variations in specific neuromodulators in the developing nervous system may play a role in individuality, researchers report.
A new study could offer insight into human glial cell function and reveals a relationship between movement and sleep.
A new study reveals subplate cells may not simply disappear, they may, instead, be migrating to different levels of the cortex. In essence, subplate cells may become part of the cerebral cortex.
Researchers have identified a neural network in the brains of monkeys that may represent a common evolutionary origin for social communication and human speech.
Researchers reveal the role nucleus gigantocellularis neurons play in generalized arousal and cognition.
A new study reports patients with major depressive disorder and treatment resistant depression have decreased levels of acetyl-L-carnitine in their blood. The findings could lead to new blood tests to diagnose the nature and severity of depression.
