Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...

From the complexity of neural networks to basic biological functions and structures, the human brain only reluctantly reveals its secrets. Advances in neuro-imaging and molecular biology have only ...

For over 100 years, scientists have agreed that discrete collections of brain cells fire off signals to other brain areas through a series of interconnected fibers. In a new study, researchers applied ...

When myelin breaks down, white matter in the brain deteriorates, a change commonly seen with aging. At the same time, microglia, the brain’s primary immune cells, can shift from protective responders ...

Steven Weisberg, a researcher at The University of Texas at Arlington, put some of the most advanced artificial intelligence ...

When the Human Genome Project published the first draft of the human genome sequence in 2001, many researchers expected to be able to pinpoint protein alterations that would explain the distinctive ...

Alex Fornito receives funding from the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia, the Australian Research Council, and the Sylvia and Charles Viertel Charitable Foundation.. James Pang ...

A new study published in The Journal of Neuroscience offers insight into how small grooves in the brain’s surface — known as tertiary sulci — might help explain individual differences in reasoning ...
