Scientists have mapped how a brain protein spreads Alzheimer’s between neurons. This discovery could lead to new ways to halt ...

A lattice-like scaffold hidden inside neurons acts as a spatial gatekeeper for how brain cells absorb material from their ...

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have identified small nuclear fragments known as micronuclei while studying neurons ...

Neurons, the uber-connected nerve cells that act as a main switchboard for the brain, are central to some incredibly complicated processes. They make it possible to think, walk, speak, and breathe.

A small device that senses light and reacts like a brain cell could change how machines see and think. Built at the nanoscale ...

What makes the human brain capable of language, imagination, mathematics and invention? For many years, the prevailing view ...

Signalling between neurons and tumour cells in the lung and brain promotes the growth of small-cell lung cancer. These interactions might be a therapeutic target. Read the paper: Neuronal ...

New research uncovers the impact of excess iron accumulation in neurons, causing vulnerability to stress and leading to neurodegenerative diseases. The mechanism, named chronoferroptosis, highlights ...

Living organisms are made up of hundreds of thousands of cells that cooperate to create the organs and systems that breathe, eat, move, and think. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a new way ...

A major neuroscience breakthrough has been achieved with the help of an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithm. In a study published this month in Cell, a multinational team of ...
