New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...

Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

For decades, dopamine has been celebrated in neuroscience as the quintessential "reward molecule"—a chemical herald of ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...
