Researchers identify sympathetic nerves as critical players in organizing pancreatic cells during development.
Researchers have discovered a complex and novel visual circuit in the brains of dragonflies. They hope the findings could some day help to improve vision systems for robots.
A new study finds no evidence that impaired blood flow or blockage in the veins of the head or neck are associated with Multiple Sclerosis.
New neuroimaging research suggests there is no evidence to indicate "right-brained" or "left-brained" personality traits exist.
A new study reveals a previously unknown mechanism which establishes polarity in developing neurons. The findings could help to develop new therapies for spinal injuries and neurodegenerative diseases.
Researchers discover a form of CD33, which lacked a critical functional domain, correlates with a reduced risk of Alzheimer's disease.
Neuroimaging study identifies differences in a key language structure before children start to learn to read.
Researchers discover a protein switch which can increase or decrease memory building, depending on the signal it detects.
Olfactory retentivity persists at a central level, helping us to identify new odors in complex environments and memorize smells, a new study suggests.
Researchers develop a steerable needle robot which can penetrate the brain and suction away blood clots.
A new test which measures the ability to name and recognize famous faces could help doctors identify early dementia in those aged 40 to 65, a new study suggests.
Researchers suggest neural stem cells could be resistant to radiation. The stem cells could be roused from a hibernation-like state in order to reproduce and generate new cells which have the ability to migrate, replace injured cells and restore lost function.
