Our current computational architecture can't match the efficiency of our own minds, but researchers have discovered a way to begin narrowing that gap by creating a small artificial neurosynaptic ...

The human brain's adaptability to internal and external changes, known as neural plasticity, forms the foundation for understanding cognitive functions like memory and learning, as well as various ...

The Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Suwon, Korea, is developing new neuroimaging approaches to explore biophysics, physiology, and biology, and ...

The brain is our body’s command center, the control tower for our body and mind—no wonder it’s the focus of intense research across the globe, with so much interest in figuring out the mysteries of ...

The depth of the brain’s unconscious, taken-for-granted functions and complex conscious abilities comes into sharp relief when they are disrupted in cases of brain disease and injury. Whether the ...

Researchers developed SynTrogo, a molecular tool enabling targeted synapse removal via engineered neuron–astrocyte ...

When a person thinks, speaks, eats, walks, or just sits comfortably with all bodily systems functioning normally, the billions of cells that make up the brain and the rest of the nervous system are ...

Like the other organs in our body, the brain, too, changes as we age. Along with age, the mental function of the brain also changes. While mental decline along with age is common, it's one of the ...

These tiny blue powerhouses pack an extraordinary punch when it comes to brain health. In addition, anthocyanins have been associated with increased neuronal signaling in brain centers mediating ...
