Cell death research has emerged as a cornerstone for understanding the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. Neurons and glial cells in the central ...

Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

Neural circuits associated with three cortical regions in cognitive generalization with different manifestations from different species. (A) Emotionrelated brain regions mainly project to PFC and OFC; ...

Neurological disorders represent a highly complex area within medicine, characterized by multifactorial etiologies involving disruptions across numerous ...

Understanding how the brain works requires more than studying single regions in isolation. The cerebral cortex depends on long-distance connections that link specialized areas into coordinated ...

New research in Biological Psychiatry: Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuroimaging identifies a novel neural pathway to treat alcohol use disorder. This figure shows areas in which tolcapone, relative to ...

For decades, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have been diagnosed from the outside in, through behavior, mood, and memory rather than the cells and circuits that go wrong. Now a new wave of brain ...

In a recent study published in Nature Neuroscience, a group of researchers explored how the cerebellum directly affects dopamine release in the substantia nigra compacta (SNc). While the cerebellum's ...
