Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems designed to emulate ...

Researchers at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Hyderabad have identified a mammalian protein, Cnpy1 ...

What is the Cnpy1 protein? New research reveals how the Canopy1 protein allows vomeronasal neurons to survive high ER-stress.

The findings, published in Nature on July 19, shed light on potential neural mechanisms involved in working memory and decision making. "Our study is a step toward thinking of the brain not in terms ...

Researchers have developed a cutting-edge technique that uses RNA “barcodes” to map how neurons connect, capturing thousands ...

Neurons in the bird eye’s inner retina lack a blood supply. Finding how these neurons function without oxygen reveals a role for an enigmatic eye structure. Read the paper: Oxygen-free metabolism in ...

Scientists have found that your brain separates memories into “what” and “where/when” using two different groups of neurons.

Over half of our genomes are made of repeating elements within DNA. In rare cases, these repeats can become unstable and grow in size. These repeat "expansions" cause neurodegenerative diseases such ...

A group of nerve cells essential for cognition may be especially vulnerable to DNA damage upon exposure to inflammation in MS.

Research by Milena Bogunovic, MD, PhD, associate professor of pathology At UMass Chan Medical School, sheds light on how ...
