Neurons are the cells in the brain responsible for sending messages to the rest of the body, and scientists have long thought that they are settled into one subtype once they develop from stem cells, ...

New structural markers of memory storage uncovered by Scripps Research may pave the way for new treatments for memory loss.

Researchers have developed a new kind of artificial neuron—called infomorphic neurons—that can independently learn and self-organize with nearby neurons, mimicking the decentralized learning of ...

In an effort to understand how brain cells exchange chemical messages, scientists say they have successfully used a highly ...

In a study supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), researchers revealed the structural underpinnings of memory formation across a broad network of neurons in the mouse brain.
