The congenital Zika syndrome is a set of birth disabilities caused by Zika virus infection during gestation. However, not all infected mothers transmit the...
We discovered in rats the long-sought brain circuit mechanism of "mind–body connection". This mechanism is critical for driving a variety of autonomic and...
An immune response is the body’s way of limiting damage and paving the way for repair. Specialized cells kill harmful invaders, clean up damaged tissue, and...
Sleep loss perturbs the molecular circadian clock inside our cells. This effect persists long after the organism has recovered from sleep loss at the...
Microglia, the immune cells of the brain, helps the brain modify its circuits in response to new experiences. In a recent study, we found that microglia...
The latest neurobiological research is revealing important and influential neural pathways between the brain to organ systems, indicating the potential power...
By comparing the genetic sequence of right-handers versus left-handers, we have uncovered regions in the genome that are linked to an increased chance of being...
What happens when visually responsive neurons in the primate brain are allowed to interact with artificial neural networks that generate images?
What neuroscience has found about the brains of “selfish” and “selfless” people? To understand what is really driving our behaviour, scientists need to look...
The continuous generation of new neurons during lifetime is crucial for learning and memory. In humans, we found a mild decrease in the number of these...
One out of every two patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experience anxiety and depressive symptoms. Our study unraveled that mindfulness yoga that teaches...
The human brain contains clusters of neurons in the visual cortex that help us recognize important objects, like faces and words. Surprisingly, these regions...
