Researchers have identified specific genes containing rare mutations that significantly increase the likelihood of developing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. These findings, published in the ...

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

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication is disrupted, the brain must rapidly rebalance its internal signaling to ...

Neurons can rapidly rebalance their communication using a structural signal rather than electrical activity, overturning long-held assumptions about how synapses maintain stability.

Study finds ultrathin tubes connecting brain cells that transport Alzheimer's proteins. The network changes months before ...

New research reveals that even a small loss of myelin—the protective coating around neurons—can severely disrupt how the brain sends and interprets sensory information.

Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to the stem cells responsible for maintaining and healing the intestine. The ...

Implantable bioelectronics are vital to neuroscience, neurological therapies, and brain-machine interfaces. They serve as indispensable interfaces that enable the communication between biological ...

Researchers have come up with a clever new way of freezing brain cells just as they fire out a signal, meaning processes that normally happen too quickly to observe can be studied in detail – and ...
