Our eyes could potentially be coaxed into a special repair mode above and beyond our natural self-healing abilities, ...

Bringing mice to an enclosure and zapping their feet with tiny electric shocks, then bringing the mice back to the enclosure ...

Researchers have created the largest and most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, by mapping cells in a cubic millimetre of a mouse’s brain tissue. In a landmark achievement, the ...

When mice encounter an unfamiliar food, neurons in a brain region called the amygdala light up (blue). If the mice start feeling sick after the meal, the same neurons get reinforced to help the mouse ...

Newly identified neurons process multiple food cues to determine when an animal should stop eating, offering new clues into ...

Study provides new evidence that sensory stimulation of gamma-frequency brain rhythm may promote broad-based restorative ...

MIT researchers demonstrated that 40Hz sensory stimulation improves cognition, hippocampal activity and neurogenesis in Down ...

Neurons aren’t the only brain cells involved in cognition ... The researchers first sequestered a group of mice inside a tube for six hours a day. Mice like small spaces, but they also like to roam ...

Serotonin neurons in the brainstem are not independent, as once thought, but interact to influence decision-making.

A three-drug combination worked better than any of them alone in treating ALS caused by mutations in the SOD1 gene, per a new ...
