Researchers at the University of Southern California have made a significant breakthrough in understanding how the human ...

A new model reads brain signals to identify memory categories, which could help develop memory-restoring tools for cognitive ...

A new study has uncovered how the brain efficiently encodes and recalls visual memories—by organizing them into categories and using the precise timing of neuronal activity.

Summary: New research uncovers how tau pathology spreads and damages synapses in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Using ...

Advance could usher in new era of research for schizophrenia, autism, Alzheimer's, and other neurological diseases ...

To test the model, the researchers grew three different types of neuronal cells, derived either from mouse brain tissue or from human stem cells, on the nanopillars.

Could these differences be linked to the structure of individual neurons in the brain? This is difficult to determine due to the sheer number of neurons in the human brain—approximately 75 billion.

I n 1943, a pair of neuroscientists were trying to describe how the human nervous system works when they accidentally laid the foundation for artificial intelligence. In their mathematical framework ...
