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.

Silent synapses are dormant neural connections that hold untapped brain potential. Discover how ketamine, exercise, and other ...

In recent years, many engineers have been trying to develop hardware components that could emulate the functions of various ...

The functioning of the brain relies on the establishment of very precise connections between neurons: synapses. A recent ...

Generalized epilepsy has traditionally been considered a seizure of the "'whole brain.'" However, new research has challenged ...
