Scientists at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have uncovered a non-invasive method to boost the brain's natural waste ...

Our evolutionary advantage over our primate relatives may come down to accelerated genetic expression in just six types of brain cells.

A new study from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology has uncovered how the MN1 gene evolved to shape both the ...

At the heart of the project lies what is referred to as the Bowers WBHI Maternal Brain Project (MBP) dataset, a first-of-its-kind resource for mapping neuroanatomical changes — from preconception ...

A transdisciplinary team has created an advanced atlas of the human deep brain, revealing the details of the architecture of nuclei and connections. The results are published in ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have identified three types of nerve cells connected to the intestinal villi, suggesting ...

For decades, neuroscientists have developed mathematical frameworks to explain how brain activity drives behaviour in ...

An adult brain with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be more vulnerable to damage linked to dementia. That ...

Frontostriatal circuits in the brain change and reconfigure themselves between the ages of 11 and 25, modulating impulses and ...

The gut-brain axis represents a complex and bidirectional communication system linking the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system. Recent ...

Brain ion channels have molecular memory, changing shape after repeated signals, affecting neurotransmitter release.

The smallest grooves on the brain's surface, unique to humans, have largely been ignored by anatomists, but recent studies show that they're related to cognitive performance, including face ...
