Tufts University School of Medicine researchers developed imaging technology that records neuronal activity throughout the brain during the first weeks of recovery. They discovered that a head injury ...

Neuronal pathways originating from the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) of the brain participate in different adaptive behaviors, but which pathways are used for distinct adaptive strategies remains unclear ...

The neural pathways involved in syncope, or fainting, are not well understood. Studies in mice have identified a defined subset of vagal sensory neurons that connect the heart and brain. Stimulation ...

The ability to measure the connectivity of each neuron in a neural circuit has established large maps of neuronal pathways—the connectome. But the extent to which those connectivity measurements alone ...

The neural mechanisms of many symptoms associated with migraine have yet to be elucidated. New research suggests that a non-image-forming retinal pathway and signals from the dura mater contribute to ...

The brain is a complex organ that regulates everything you do. It sends and receives chemical and electrical signals through the body that control and coordinate thought, memory, emotion, ...

Carbon monoxide (CO) is synthesized in neurons by heme oxygenase-2 (HO2). Inhibition or genomic deletion of HO2 reduces neurotransmission in experimental models, suggesting that like nitric oxide (NO) ...

Schizophrenia, a psychiatric disorder that affects how a person feels, thinks, and behaves, affects roughly 1% of the ...

Music can also help prevent the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, which, in up to 95% of cases, can be driven by nongenetic ...

The researchers discovered that this separation proves remarkably clean. In a preprint paper released in late October, they ...

What if a model could forget without losing its mind?” That question now has a technical foothold, thanks to new research ...
