International researchers develop NTAC, an AI that identifies neuronal types with 90% accuracy based purely on synaptic connectivity, outperforming traditional shape-based methods.

Researchers create the first high-resolution molecular atlas of the fruit fly brain, revealing how lineage and birth order define neuronal identity.

When we learn a new skill, the brain has to decide—cell by cell—what to change. New research from MIT suggests it can do that ...

Sleep is a pretty dangerous gambit. If you think about it, you’re unconscious and disconnected from the world for about a third of your life. That makes you vulnerable to predators and even ...

Concerned about the effects of these changes, biophysicist Elena Molokanova and her team sought a more natural way to stimulate neurons in cell culture. In a recent study, the researchers grew neurons ...
