Graph theory and computational modeling reveal that neural network architecture biases the male Caenorhabditis elegans brain toward prioritized sexual behaviors.

A mouse pup is born with its hippocampus already buzzing with connections. Not a few tentative links between neighboring ...

The thermosensory neuron AFD unexpectedly modulates locomotion based on tactile experience through molecular and circuit mechanisms distinct from those underlying thermosensation.

New findings reveal that certain areas of the brain influence how neurons transmit signals and control their range.

Neuron networks in the brains hippocampus, the memory centre, are dense with connections that appear random, but as animals ...

Neurons that fire together, wire together” is not the full story. A novel mechanism explains how the brain can learn across ...

Scientists link a rising brain protein to memory decline and show it can be reversed in mice, offering a new target for ...

The discovery offers a new way to potentially treat some serious conditions ...

During brain development, neurons can regulate their movement until they reach their final destination thanks to a "molecular switch" involving the protein Teneurin 4 (Ten4). This protein can guide ...
