Researchers at University of Tsukuba have identified a previously uncharacterized neural circuit that directly links ...

Neural circuits associated with three cortical regions in cognitive generalization with different manifestations from different species. (A) Emotionrelated brain regions mainly project to PFC and OFC; ...

Coronal brain slice showing projections from different visual areas in the cerebral cortex to the ventrolateral geniculate nucleus (vLGN). These pathways are part of the circuit identified as ...

Fear memories can form in the brain following exposure to threatening situations such as natural disasters, accidents, or violence. When these memories become excessive or distorted, they can lead to ...

In a recent study published in Nature Neuroscience, a group of researchers explored how the cerebellum directly affects dopamine release in the substantia nigra compacta (SNc). While the cerebellum's ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and the Mechanobiology Institute (MBI) at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have discovered a novel pathway to wake up dormant neural stem cells, ...

What if we could peer into the brain and watch how it organizes information as we act, perceive, or make decisions? A new ...

This study presents a valuable advance in reconstructing naturalistic speech from intracranial ECoG data using a dual-pathway model. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is solid, ...

Cancer, Alzheimer’s, and other diseases follow a pathway in the human body. It starts at the molecular and cellular levels, and through a series of complex interactions can lead to the development and ...

For decades, neurology treated the brain like a black box, nudging it with drugs and hoping symptoms would ease. Now ...
