In a powerful fusion of AI and neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and at the Allen Institute have created one of the most detailed maps of the mouse brain ...

The first complete activity map of the brain has been unveiled by a large international collaboration of neuroscientists. The International Brain Laboratory (IBL) researchers published their findings ...

How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are transmitted between nerve cells using molecular containers called vesicles. Now, ...

Scientists have traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. A new brain map visualizes the connections between the brain and spinal cord at the ...

The most comprehensive model of the brain’s metabolism, incorporating more than 16,800 biochemical interactions, has identified key targets to reverse the age-related decline in brain function. The ...

Because the cerebellum has long been known for coordinating the timing and precision of fluid muscle movements, it was important for me to position cerebellar motor functions as a central player when ...

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 difficult to ...

Healthy brain function relies on a steady supply of blood. Disruptions in blood flow are linked to major neurological conditions like stroke, Alzheimer's disease (AD), and traumatic brain injuries.
