The brain is the most complex organ in the human body. Different parts of the brain perform a variety of functions, all of ...
A rare group of neurons can reconnect broken spinal circuits and trigger leg muscle activity after spinal cord injury—a ...
Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered a molecular switch in neurons that limits the ...
Our first neurons form during the earliest weeks of development in the womb. As the brain takes shape, those neurons move about and cluster with others to create brain regions. Then they begin the ...
After injury, the visual system can recover by growing new neural connections rather than replacing lost cells. Researchers found that surviving eye cells formed extra branches that restored ...
Even the simplest networks of neurons in the brain are composed of millions of connections, and examining these vast networks is critical to understanding how the brain works. An international team of ...
Expansion microscopy enabled researchers to count the number of connections between neurons (green points on purple neuron). Neurons exposed to amyloid-beta formed more connections (SSBs = single ...
