What is neuroscience? Neuroscience is the scientific study of nervous systems. Neuroscience can involve research from many branches of science including those involving neurology, brain science, neurobiology, psychology, computer science, artificial intelligence, statistics, prosthetics, neuroimaging, engineering, medicine, physics, mathematics, pharmacology, electrophysiology, biology, robotics and technology.
Study reveals the how stress can induce sleep in mice, and how this stress-induced sleep can help reduce anxiety the following day.
Researchers say creativity is linked to two different semantic memory processes.
Parenting skill training can help multiple babies in the same family sleep longer, providing much-needed extra rest for the parents.
Study reveals a possible mechanism by which anxiolytic medications act on the brain, leading to cognitive impairment.
Researchers identified a novel brain network that includes the fronto-parietal networks and fusiform gyrus which helps with the encoding of visual mental imagery.
Women who have undergone menopause have more white matter intensities in the brain than pre-menopausal women and men of the same age.
Behavioral changes in men later in life including apathy and having false beliefs was associated with a risk of faster cognitive decline.
AgRP neurons in the hypothalamus control the release of endogenous lysophospholipids, helping to control the excitability of cerebral cortex neurons and stimulating the desire for food intake.
Stem cells in human urine have the potential to regenerate tissue.
A new study reveals how the COVID-19 pandemic changed the perception of time for many people. Researchers say people felt time passed more slowly during COVID lockdowns. This "time expansion" was associated with increased feelings of loneliness and a lack of positive experience during the early parts of the COVID pandemic.
Eliminating Collagen 1 production in tumor cells allowed animal models of brain tumors to live longer.
