In a study published in Science, researchers at Karolinska Institutet describe the neural processes behind how morphine relieves pain. This is valuable knowledge because the drug has such serious side ...

Researchers developed tiny wearable devices for cells that can snugly enfold neurons and neuronal processes without damaging the cell. These thin-film wearables, made from a soft polymer, could enable ...

Researchers describe the neural processes behind how morphine relieves pain. This is valuable knowledge because the drug has such serious side effects. In a study published in Science, researchers at ...

When animals and humans explore their surrounding environment or complete specific tasks, their brains simultaneously support both their mental (i.e., cognitive) processes and physical movements. For ...

In a recent Communications Chemistry article, researchers presented a novel approach to interfacing with neuronal structures using light-responsive azobenzene polymer thin films. Image Credit: ...

A new artificial neuron that spikes like human brain cells could be used to process data at ultrafast speeds. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...

The field of systems neuroscience increasingly seeks to understand how distributed neural populations interact to support complex cognitive functions such ...

A new study probing quantum phenomena in neurons as they transmit messages in the brain could provide fresh insight into how our brains function. Our brains process information via a vast network ...

Brett Kagan, Chief Scientific Officer at Cortical Labs, commented: “This breakthrough is a major step forward in not only how we study and understand diseases and drugs that are designed to treat ...

“I just can’t make it tonight. You have fun without me.” Across much of the animal kingdom, when infection strikes, social contact shuts down. A study headed by researchers at The Picower Institute ...
