Your brain constantly juggles sensory information to make split-second decisions, but how? A new latent circuit model ...

Discover how your mind filters out distractions. New research reveals the specialized neural mechanisms that actively block ...

The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures, the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen—like perception, thinking, memory storage ...

A new mathematical model sheds light on how the brain processes different cues, such as sights and sounds, during decision ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2025.240152, discusses how multi-photon bionic skin ...

Research from the Voigt lab at the Babraham Institute has investigated the mechanism by which bivalency functions to poise ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy lifting in the nervous system, it's the glia that provide nutrients, clean up waste, and ...

If the drug is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of acute pain in January as expected, the ...

The EXPErimental medicine Route To Success in ALS (EXPERTS-ALS) project aims to rapidly screen potential drugs for evidence ...

New research on nematodes reveals how glial cells maintain and monitor neuronal dendrites. Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy ...

Pain is an example of an important sensory neuron. When you feel pain from a hot pan or a sharp pin, you are sending sensory information via sensory neurons up to the brain. The flow of electrical ...
