Understanding how animals, including humans, transform brain signals into coordinated movements is a fundamental question in ...

A new study reveals how biological branching networks use surface geometry to shape blood vessels, brains, and plants.

For more than a century, scientists have wondered why physical structures like blood vessels, neurons, tree branches, and ...

Novel artificial neurons learn independently and are more strongly modeled on their biological counterparts. A team of researchers from the Göttingen Campus Institute for Dynamics of Biological ...

Scientists at Auburn University have uncovered a fundamental principle of how brain cells stay connected, and their discovery could change how we understand Alzheimer's disease. Published in Cell ...

Research reveals that a small network of neurons continuously adjusts our breathing. Share on Pinterest New research finds that a small network of neurons is responsible for creating a unique rhythm ...

If neurons could be replaced, neuronal deficits caused by Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, or brain injury could be reversed. Unfortunately, neurons refuse to divide. New neurons, then, must come from ...

A new study published in Neuroscience reveals how computation can be used to find out the visual stimulation to which the brain cells respond most frequently and productively. Researchers built ...
