UC San Francisco researchers have shown that subtle epileptic brain disruptions, known as interictal epileptiform discharges, can be predicted a full second before they occur using neuron-level ...

Symptoms such as fatigue, loss of appetite, altered sleep, and social withdrawal are often treated as inconvenient side ...

In two new studies, researchers used genetic techniques to upend a longstanding assumption that nerve cells with scent ...

Scientists recorded the brain’s sleep switch firing in real time — and the feedback loop they uncovered reshapes what we know about deep sleep.

A team led by Professor Ed X. Wu and Dr. Alex T. L. Leong has achieved a major breakthrough in understanding how the brain ...

Researchers identify the rostral prefrontal cortex as the essential bridge between spontaneous and executive brain networks ...

Researchers at the Indiana University School of Medicine have developed a new way to read the brain's "energy network ...

The odor receptors in the nose are not distributed at random but organized in a precise spatial pattern, two new studies ...

Scientists have created the first detailed map of smell receptors in the nose, catching up with similar achievements in sight ...

After injury, the visual system can recover by growing new neural connections rather than replacing lost cells. Researchers found that surviving eye cells formed extra branches that restored ...

Researchers released the first detailed map of smell receptors in the nose, organized into horizontal stripes that mirror the ...
