Researchers find that altered Homer1 gene signaling quiets brain activity and improves attention in mice, raising new ...

Just light exercise—10 or 20 minutes of walking a day—can be enough to take the edge off. The Centers for Disease Control and ...

Macaques are often studied because their brains share many similarities with human brains. However, this study revealed an ...

When there are fewer dendritic spines, fewer synapses are formed, and brain cells struggle to communicate properly. This ...

Using high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM), the Kanazawa University team led by Mikihiro Shibata filmed the dynamic movements of CaMKII at the single-molecule level. The images revealed that a ...

Maintaining the heart’s connection to the vagus nerve may be a key defense against cardiac aging. Researchers showed that ...

A new study suggests temporal lobe epilepsy may be linked to early aging of certain brain cells. When researchers removed these aging cells in mice, seizures dropped, memory improved, and some animals ...

Researchers have developed a new way to decipher the language of the brain by listening to and recording the fastest and ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons.

Scientists developed two new sensors that can detect brain cell communication in real time, tracking chemical messages ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain’s neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons. For the first time, DZNE researchers have observed an ...
