Scientists created an artificial neuron that operates at the same voltage as living cells and is able to communicate with the human brain.

Scientists have successfully connected living human brain cells to a computer system and taught them to interact with the classic video game DOOM. The strange experiment marks a new step toward ...

While the exact causes of neurodegenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia are still largely unknown, researchers have been able to identify a key characteristic in affected brains: ...

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly. This landmark achievement has been conducted by a large ...

Research Compounds Scientists Study for Brain Function and Cognitive Performance Modern neuroscience research continues ...

The article from Tech Horizons reports a groundbreaking discovery by researchers at Case Western Reserve University, led by Dominique Durand, revealing a previously unknown form of neural ...

Neuroscientists have unveiled an engineered protein that lets them watch incoming signals wash over neurons in real time, turning what used to be invisible chemical whispers into vivid, trackable ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The study is led by Professor Daniel Tornero (left) and researcher Alba Ortega , from the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Binge drinking in early adult years fundamentally changes how the brain's neurons communicate, in what scientists equate to a faulty gas pedal in a car that needs more pressure applied to "go." What's ...

A team of scientists has identified specialized neurons in the brain that store "meal memories" detailed recollections of when and what we eat. These engrams, found in the ventral hippocampus, help ...

The healing of the spinal cord depends on carefully timed interactions between injured nerve cells and their surrounding ...
