Neurons tucked away in an ancient part of the brain control the ability to pay attention by suppressing distractions and directing focus. The discovery of these neurons in mice by Johns Hopkins ...

Researchers from the University of New Hampshire looked at the developmental process of the cerebral cortex—the outermost layer of the brain—and examined how neurons, or nerve cells, refine their ...

A new study probing quantum phenomena in neurons as they transmit messages in the brain could provide fresh insight into how our brains function. Our brains process information via a vast network ...

If we can model a fly brain, and run that fly in a sim, we might do it with us. We live in the age of the brain, and ...

A team of neurologists, bioengineers and radiologists has found that two neurons in the human brain that code for dopamine production have to work harder than similar cells in primate relatives. The ...

In two separate studies, researchers learned more about the way that our brains respond to music. One study found that brain neurons synchronize with musical rhythms, while the other showed how ...
