The brain's ability to process information is known to be supported by intricate connections between different neuron populations. A key objective of neuroscience research has been to delineate the ...
A new study published in the journal Neurobiology of Disease has found that an overabundance of inhibitory connections in a ...
FMI researchers have provided new insights into how the brain organizes and processes memories, thanks to a study that looks at the balance between excitatory and inhibitory neurons. The paper is ...
Deletion of mini-exon B in the synaptic adhesion molecule PTPδ leads to altered neural connectivity from the entorhinal cortex to the dentate gyrus (left panel). In mice lacking mini-exon B, ...
Scientists have gained greater clarity in the brain regions and neurons that control metabolism, body temperature and energy use. A team of researchers discovered which chemicals influence the signals ...

Scientists found a tiny cluster of neurons that works like the brain’s built-in focus filter
A team at Johns Hopkins University has identified a small, evolutionarily ancient group of inhibitory neurons in the ...
Synaptic transmission is an energy hog. It requires neurons to tap ATP reserves to respond to incoming signals. How do they pull this off, thousands to millions of times per day? A new study ...
Researchers at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have identified a remarkably small but critical piece of genetic code that helps determine how brain cells connect, communicate, and function. The ...
