Other cells, such as glial cells, support the function of neurons. Neuroscience has often painted glial cells as the glue ...
The findings, published in Nature on July 19, shed light on potential neural mechanisms involved in working memory and decision making. "Our study is a step toward thinking of the brain not in terms ...
Adding rat stem cells to a mouse embryo resulted in a ‘hybrid brain’ in which the rat cells stepped in to restore function when the mouse’s sense of smell was removed, new research has shown. It’s the ...
Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...

When most of us picture the brain, we imagine billions of nerve cells flashing with electrical activity, carrying thoughts, memories and commands from one region to another. Those cells, called ...
Researchers found that astrocytes in the amygdala actively encode, maintain, and extinguish fear memories. Altering their ...
The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for ...
