HFSPO is pleased to award the 2026 HFSP Nakasone Award to Erin Schuman for her breakthrough related to the function and ...

Glial cells support neurological structures, function, cognition, behaviours, physical skills, and motor coordination.

Uncovering the relationship between structure (connectivity) and function (neuronal activity) is a fundamental question across many areas of biology. However, investigating this directly in animal ...

Implantable bioelectronics are vital to neuroscience, neurological therapies, and brain-machine interfaces. They serve as ...

A study of nematodes by researchers at Nagoya University in Japan has found that aging-related decline in brain function is caused by the excessive activation of certain neurons over time, rather ...

New research highlights how astrocytes, long considered mere support cells, actively shape brain network dynamics.

This important study presents a new method for longitudinally tracking cells in two-photon imaging data that addresses the specific challenges of imaging neurons in the developing cortex. It provides ...

Neurons that die early in Alzheimer’s help drive brain waste removal. Treating this process sooner could change outcomes.

Long overlooked and underestimated, glial cells—non-neuronal cells that support, protect and communicate with neurons—are ...

Jimmy Fong from Bruker discusses the latest technological advances for voltage imaging that help scientists unravel neuronal activity in the brain.

Neuronal excitation triggers an influx of calcium into mitochondria, triggering transcription of mtDNA. Expression of oxidative phosphorylation components climbs, ramping up ATP. This coupling falters ...
