New research shows that a common chemical in plastics, BPA, can cause behavioral changes by altering how our brains perform.

A new study provides new evidence that sensory stimulation of a gamma-frequency brain rhythm may promote broad-based restorative neurological health response.

In a new study, researchers have found that mice can instinctively exhibit rescue-like behavior toward anesthetized ...

WASHINGTON — Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date – a diagram of the wiring connecting 84,000 neurons ...

Scientists have unveiled the most intricate functional map of a mouse brain to date, revealing neural connections so complex they resemble the structure of a galaxy. Published in Nature on April 8 ...

Now, researchers have mapped the many brain cells and connections in a portion of the mouse brain spanning just 1 cubic millimeter — roughly the size of a grain of sand. "A millimeter seems ...

Scientists from the Machine Intelligence from Cortical Networks (MICRONS) consortium have published the microconnectome of a cubic millimeter of the mouse brain. This is the most complete map of this ...

However, neuroscientists have advanced technologies that make this possible in mice. We identified a small brain region called the area postrema that acts as the brain’s inflammation detector.
