What makes someone a "morning lark" or a "night owl?" Why does jet lag hit us so hard, and why do some people struggle each ...

A new study in the lab of Jason Stein, Ph.D., modeled brain development in a dish to identify cells and genes that influence ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

Scientists have traced a devastating pattern of brain cell loss in a handful of families to a single, ultra-rare mutation ...

Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to just their outgoing signals).

Scientists developed two new sensors that can detect brain cell communication in real time, tracking chemical messages between neurons with unprecedented speed and sensitivity. Dramatic performance ...

Clearing out “aged” brain cells dramatically reduced seizures and restored memory in a new epilepsy study.

The findings add to previous research at CU Anschutz which found that Alzheimer’s patients given Leukine showed improvement ...

A new bioluminescent tool allows neurons to glow on their own, letting scientists track brain activity without harmful lasers ...

Brain organoids can be a good step forward, assuming they are grown from induced human pluripotent stem cells. That allows us to sidestep ethical concerns about the use of human embryos, thereby ...

Researchers have developed a new way to decipher the language of the brain by listening to and recording the fastest and ...
