A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...

That viral claim that your frontal lobe “isn’t fully developed until 25” turns out to be more myth than milestone. Early ...

New research finds that sleep is essential for protecting brain mitochondria by transferring toxic metabolic waste from neurons to glial cells for disposal.

Imagine balancing a ruler vertically in the palm of your hand: you have to constantly pay attention to the angle of the ruler ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

Indiana University researchers are advancing the fight against Alzheimer’s disease using brain organoids, cutting-edge clusters of cells that mimic the structures of the human brain.

Brain activity has been detected up to an hour after cardiac arrest, challenging long-held beliefs about when death truly occurs.

Work smarter not harder.

Researchers show sleep protects neuronal mitochondria by transferring oxidative lipid damage to glial and blood cells. The ...

Neuroscience rarely enjoys clean experiments. Most brain disorders are mosaics of risk genes, aging, lifestyle and chance that leave their origins obscured. Huntington's disease (HD) is different. It ...

A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...

Brain cells are constantly swallowing material from the fluid that surrounds them - signaling molecules, nutrients, even pieces of their own surfaces - in a process known as endocytosis that is ...
