Researchers have crossed a threshold that once belonged squarely to science fiction: they have built working models of brains ...

Scientists are beginning to show that learning is not exclusive to neurons and synapses. At the scale of billionths of a ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...

Scientists have identified a previously unseen layered organization inside one of the brain’s most important memory hubs.

Brain scans of thousands of people revealed that the human brain has five distinct eras, with turning points in the way it is ...

Cedars-Sinai researchers created “young” immune cells from human stem cells that reversed cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s symptoms in mice. The treated animals showed better memory and healthier ...

A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and someday, it could inspire advances in AI and Alzheimer's research. When you ...

Neuroscientists at the University of Cambridge have identified five "major epochs" of brain structure over the course of a human life, as our brains rewire to support different ways of thinking while ...
