The study has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of brain activity. Using computer simulations, the study shows ...

The other day I got an invitation to a windowless office building in downtown Manhattan to get a quantitative ...

New research shows that a network of subcellular structures similar to those responsible for propagating molecular signals that make muscles contract are also responsible for transmitting signals in ...

To evaluate the effectiveness of public video campaigns against risky alcohol consumption, psychologists used EEG measurements to examine the synchronization of brain activity in groups of viewers. In ...

“Through generating brain oscillations (brain waves) involved in memory retrieval, the brain may be playing a last recall of ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...

However, this locking between brain waves and single neuron activity degraded under psilocybin. Neurons communicate with one another in two ways: via binary signals called action potentials ...

Though basic motor controls like moving an artificial limb can be achieved by reading a patient’s decoded brain signals, making them feel a sensation requires the opposite process to occur.

Scientists have discovered that neural stem cells (NSCs) receive constant feedback from their daughter cells, influencing whether they remain dormant or activate to form new neurons and glia.

When sound waves reach the inner ear, neurons there pick up the vibrations and alert the brain. Encoded in their signals is a wealth of information that enables us to follow conversations ...
