The teenage brain isn’t just trimming connections—it’s secretly building powerful new neural hotspots that may shape the mind ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

The next time you reach for a memory or make a quick choice, a storm of tiny signals races through your brain. Scientists can ...

Scientists have discovered millions of so-called silent synapses in the adult brain, immature links between neurons that are dormant until they are needed for the formation of new memories. It had ...
