Our current computational architecture can't match the efficiency of our own minds, but researchers have discovered a way to begin narrowing that gap by creating a small artificial neurosynaptic ...

New research for the first time reveals the function of a little-understood junction between cells in the brain that could have important treatment implications for conditions ranging from multiple ...

The Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Suwon, Korea, is developing new neuroimaging approaches to explore biophysics, physiology, and biology, and ...

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...

The brain is a complicated network of connections and functions, but its inner machinations remain an enigma. In a huge collaborative effort, researchers profiled millions of cells to chart a cellular ...

Like the other organs in our body, the brain, too, changes as we age. Along with age, the mental function of the brain also changes. While mental decline along with age is common, it's one of the ...
