A team led by the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), has identified a brain circuit ...
Using sensors and a light-activated drug, the team mapped neural pathways used by endogenous opioids to send pain relief ...
A cross-disciplinary team led by Prof. Qu Jianan from the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering and Prof. Julie L ...
Researchers have found that the hormone FGF21 reversed obesity in mice by acting on a newly identified brain circuit in the hindbrain. Unlike GLP-1 drugs, which mainly reduce appetite, FGF21 appears ...
Tinnitus is usually defined as a 'phantom' noise heard only by the patient, often a high-pitched ringing, hissing, buzzing, ...
Scientists used a tool called SynTrogo to edit brain circuits in mice, showing that trimming select synapses can make ...
A hormone called FGF21 can reverse obesity in mice by activating a newly identified brain circuit tied to metabolism. Surprisingly, it works in the hindbrain—the same region targeted by GLP-1 drugs ...
A cross-disciplinary team led by Prof. QU Jianan from the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering and Prof. Julie L. SEMMELHACK from the ...
Researchers have developed a soft artificial retina that helped blind mice respond to near-infrared light, a type of light ...
A new Nature Neuroscience study reveals that the ventromedial prefrontal cortex regulates how the hippocampus links related memories, preventing false associations. Researchers used advanced imaging ...
North Texas researchers identify gene changes in brain reward circuits that may point to new treatments for those struggling ...
How does the placebo effect work? A new study identifies the vlPAG brain region and endogenous opioid signaling as the keys to expectancy-driven pain relief.
