Working with 10 mice, they monitored roughly 8,000 neurons in the primary visual cortex of each animal while the mice watched ...

New Haven, Conn. — The 2025 Gruber Neuroscience Prize will be awarded to Edward F. Chang, MD, of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), in recognition of his pioneering research ...

The human brain contains more connections between neurons than there are stars in the Milky Way. Decoding the electrical activity behind all those cells is the massive task that excites neural ...

Neuroscience, neural computation, and artificial intelligence constitute an integrative research area that investigates the principles of information processing in nervous systems and applies them to ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have created the first detailed map showing how genetic activity is controlled in individual cells of the adult human brain and spinal cord. The study, published ...

Two undergraduates will be first learning to work with mice under the supervision of a postdoc in the lab, then they will lead behavioral studies that measure different learning and memory functions.

For many heartbreaking diseases of the brain — dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and others — doctors can only treat the symptoms. Medical science does not have a cure. Why? Because it’s confounding ...

How the human brain organizes its visual memories through precise neural timing has been discovered. Researchers at the University of Southern California (USC; CA, USA) have made a significant ...

In their classic 1998 textbook on cognitive neuroscience, Michael Gazzaniga, Richard Ivry, and George Mangun made a sobering observation: there was no clear mapping between how we process language and ...
