Our brain requires a constant supply of energy. A disrupted energy supply, as, for instance, caused by a stroke, can have ...

An NIH-funded project leverages advanced synapse imaging to monitor real-time neuronal changes during learning, unveiling new ...

A new way to deliver disease-fighting proteins throughout the brain may improve the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other neurological disorders, according to scientists. By engineering human ...

Neurobiologists using cutting-edge visualisation techniques have revealed how changes across our synapses and neurons ...

Every day, people are constantly learning and forming new memories. When you pick up a new hobby, try a recipe a friend ...

The brain learns due to neurons using multiple mechanisms to store knowledge according to a new study by researchers.

How do we learn something new? How do tasks at a new job, lyrics to the latest hit song or directions to a friend's house become encoded in our brains?

Findings challenge the idea that neurons follow a single learning strategy and offer a new perspective on how the brain ...

New research reveals that individual neurons follow multiple learning rules simultaneously, challenging the long-held belief that synaptic plasticity operates uniformly throughout the brain.

Connections made via apical synapses seemed to be strengthened by movement information more than those made via basal ...

How do we learn something new? How do tasks at a new job, lyrics to the latest hit song or directions to a friend's house become encoded in our brains? The broad answer is that our brains undergo ...
