Human brain cells are now interacting with computer systems, learning to play video games like Doom. Researchers have ...

When it comes to brain health, it’s less about avocado versus salmon and more about how they work together. Salmon delivers DHA and EPA, which provide structural support for brain cells. Avocados ...

The results include a comparison between two different basis functions for temporal selectivity and how these generate different predictions for the dynamics of neural populations. The conclusions are ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

In February 2026, XellSmart Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (XellSmart) announced that it had secured its fourth US FDA and China NMPA clearance for Phase I/II registrational clinical trial entry with its ...

Adults whose brains still have strong neuron production seem to have better memory and cognitive function than do those in whom the ability wanes, finds a study published today in Nature. The authors ...

Neurons placed inside engineered living bodies built from frog cells self-organize, become active, and reshape movement ...

Study finds SuperAgers in their 80s and 90s produce twice as many young neurons as healthy adults and 2.5 times more than ...

Older adults with exceptional memories continue to grow new brain cells. A recent study published in the journal Nature shows ...

A new McGill University study has found a direct link between age-related declines in neuron activity in the cerebellum and ...

Picture a star-shaped cell in the brain, stretching its spindly arms out to cradle the neurons around it. That's an astrocyte, and for a long time, scientists thought its job was caretaking the brain, ...

Five years ago, Nobel laureate Carolyn Bertozzi, PhD, and her team described novel small RNA-glycan conjugates, glycosylated RNAs (glycoRNAs), on the cell surface. These small non-coding RNAs have ...
