A new study constructs the first 3D single-cell brain atlas of the lamprey, uncovering the 450-million-year-old molecular ...

A new study led by Monash University researchers has shed light on the factors shaping the intricate wiring of our brains.

In 1906, Spanish scientist Santiago Ramón y Cajal won the Nobel Prize for his pioneering studies of the microscopic structures of the brain. His famous drawings of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum ...

A recent series of studies suggests that the brains of birds, reptiles and mammals all evolved independently — even though they share a common... How nature makes a complex brain — and why humans may ...

Chinese scientists have recently constructed the first three-dimensional spatial single-cell atlas of the lamprey whole brain ...

Despite all that old talk about Mars and Venus, men and women are much more biologically alike than not. But differences in the way our brains are built shed light on everything from the way we flirt ...

Understanding communication and information processing in nervous systems is a central goal of neuroscience. Over the past two decades, advances in connectomics and network neuroscience have opened ...

Herein we address the measurable consequences of the network effect (NE) on time series generated by different parts of the brain, heart, and lung organ-networks (ONs), which are directly related to ...

Although the prevailing wisdom among neuroscientists is that Purkinje cells have just one primary dendrite that connects with a single climbing fiber from the brain stem, new research shows that ...
