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

One of the brain’s biggest benefits from exercise – the birth of new neurons – may not even require any movement. Instead, the beneficial “packages” circulating in the blood after working out can be ...

The brain’s rules seem simple: Fire together, wire together. When groups of neurons activate, they become interconnected. This networking is how we learn, reason, form memories, and adapt to our world ...

Researchers from the University of Oxford have created the first high-resolution molecular atlas of the adult Drosophila ...

Relapsing after quitting cocaine is not simply a matter of willpower — it reflects physical changes in the brain, according to new research. Scientists have found that repeated cocaine use reshapes ...
