Researchers identify a specialized "satellite" language network in the cerebellum, offering new insights into how the brain ...

To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord. This intricate communication network is built of billions of neurons connected by synapses ...

Aging doesn’t have to mean losing your past. Scientists have found a way to "reprogram" specific memory-holding neurons, restoring youthful learning and recall in mice.

The neuron’s inner scaffold, once viewed as static support, now looks like a gatekeeper. Research findings are available ...

Scientists created an AI tool that detects a fruit fly’s courtship song as it begins and instantly switches off specific brain cells.

Immunotherapy that blocks microglial Fcγ receptors prevents dopaminergic neuron loss in Parkinson’s disease, revealing a potential new strategy.

Speech blurs together unless you know the language; scientists found the brain signal that separates the words ...

A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Virginia Tech's Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC has for the first time identified specific patterns of brain chemical activity that predict ...

In Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, a protein called tau can pile up inside brain cells and form toxic clumps. Those clumps help drive memory loss and other symptoms.

Scientists have reversed severe memory loss in two mouse models of Alzheimer’s by restoring the brain’s energy supply. Late-stage mice showed brain tissue repairing itself once fuel balance returned, ...
