Researchers at the Foundation (CF) have identified a key neural circuit involved in sexual rejection, uncovering a group of ...

This live look at a mouse's brain tracks neurons firing by measuring oxygen levels, much like a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan. This image however, was created with ...

A mysterious electromagnetic mechanism may be more important than the firing of neurons in our brain to explain our awareness ...

A new study reveals how interneurons, brain cells that regulate the firing of other neurons, act as traffic controllers in ...

A new study uncovers how progesterone-responsive neurons in the anterior ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) toggle between ...

This article reports a useful set of findings on how electrophysiological response properties of neurons correlate with their position in the brain. The evidence currently remains incomplete, with ...

Zooming in on the auditory cortex, the researchers found three unique sets of neurons that light up while we listen to music.

Fret not, my sleep-deprived friend, because new neuroscience suggests that NREM sleep—meaning, straightforwardly, “non-rapid ...

"In receptive females, they received more inhibitory signals, reducing their likelihood of firing. It's a testament to how ...

This year is the centennial anniversary of German psychiatrist Hans Berger's invention of electroencephalography (EEG), a way ...

While this theory appears to be gathering steam, there’s still much more to explore. Ephaptic fields and other theories of ...

Memories are created in a matter of seconds. Researchers now may have begun to uncover how behavioral timescale learning ...
