The brain creates internal 'maps' to help us navigate and learn from our surroundings, but how these maps form remains a challenge to understand. Now, a study led by Liset M. de la Prida at the Cajal ...

"If we understand how attention errors affect spatial cognition, we can design systems that minimize these errors or even use them to drive learning," added Brissenden. "We're now planning future ...

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years. Though ...

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...

A single-cell atlas of brain aging epigenetics has mapped methylation, chromatin, and gene activity changes across 36 cell ...

New research shows stress impairs direction sense, weakening the brain’s navigation system and making it harder to stay ...

A new study has found that running changes gut bacteria and lowers a key receptor in the brain’s memory center. That link ...

Researchers developed a high-resolution spatial proteomics method to map protein and sugar changes in the brain. The study ...
