Neurons in the brains of mice tell them to stop eating when they’ve had enough food – and since people probably have the same ...

Columbia scientists have found specialized neurons in the brains of mice that order the animals to stop eating. Though many feeding circuits in the brain are known to play a role in monitoring food ...

This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

Your brain constantly juggles sensory information to make split-second decisions, but how? A new latent circuit model ...

Researchers have identified a group of brain cells in mice that play a key role in regulating appetite. These neurons, ...

Researchers have identified a group of specialised neurons in the brainstem that regulate when to stop eating. These neurons ...

By crafting an artificial brain-like environment with microscopic nanopillars, researchers have successfully guided neurons ...

Scientists have discovered that neural stem cells (NSCs) receive constant feedback from their daughter cells, influencing whether they remain dormant or activate to form new neurons and glia.

The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...
