Understanding how the human brain stores information and later uses it to complete various tasks has been a long-standing goal of neuroscience and psychology research. Past studies have identified ...
A new McGill University study has found a direct link between age-related declines in neuron activity in the cerebellum and worsening motor skills, including gait, balance and agility. While it is ...
Neurons, the uber-connected nerve cells that act as a main switchboard for the brain, are central to some incredibly complicated processes. They make it possible to think, walk, speak, and breathe.
Researchers at Universidad Miguel Hernandez have identified a specific population of neurons in the central lateral amygdala whose excessive firing produces anxiety-like behavior, depression-like ...
When the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 absconds from the nucleus, splicing chaos ensues and neuronal function gets disrupted in ways scientists are still cataloguing. Now on this list: synaptic ...
