Lifelong plasticity is a core principle of neuroscience, yet it operates within real limits shaped by effort, stress and ...
Can the brain function when its architecture is altered? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) demonstrates that ...
Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...
A landmark study suggests that this daily habit may reshape how your mind activates.
Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Cells shrink a major internal structure as they age. New research shows this downsizing is deliberate—and linked to longer ...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease, affecting more than ...
A holistic inquiry into how toxic tau impacts synapses provides a new take on the processes that lead to neuronal dysfunction ...
Can the brain keep working when its architecture changes? Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have discovered that neurons located in the wrong place can still carry out their normal ...
Recent analysis of human brain tissue suggests that a small and often overlooked region deep within the brain may play a central role in bipolar disorder. Researchers found that neurons in the ...
