One of the great challenges of modern neuroscience is to map out all the networks of cell-to-cell communication—the brain circuits that process all thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The ...

Researchers have created the largest and most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, by mapping cells in a ...

This has also been a prevailing theory in neuroscience. A research team led ... to use such an exceptionally rare data set of single cell recordings. Such a precise measurement is not the case ...

Consider a neuron, or nerve cell. Each neuron has an axon, a cable-like appendage that transmits electrical signals to nearby neurons. Those electrical signals help your brain perceive your ...

Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary science ... By integrating spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified distinct microglial states that mediate removal of amyloid ...

theory of the action potential, formulated 50 years ago, remains one of the great success stories in biology, and ranks among the most significant conceptual breakthroughs in neuroscience.

A study led by Northwestern Medicine used CRISPR interference to identify Commander proteins involved in Parkinson’s disease risk. These proteins play a key role in lysosomal function, and targeting ...
