Neuroscientists have long sought techniques to reactivate critical periods in the brain, when animals are more receptive to environmental cues that might alter brain development. According to a recent study in mice conducted by Johns Hopkins Medicine, psychedelic substances are related by th
Scientists have gained new insights into the part of the brain that gives us a sense of direction, by tracking neural activity with the latest advances in brain imaging techniques. The findings shed light on how the brain orients itself in changing environments -- and even the processes that
Bacteria use electricity to communicate and react to environmental cues, much like neurons do in human brains. To better understand antibiotic resistance, scientists have now found a mechanism to alter this electrical signalling in bacteria.
Washington D.C. [USA], July 14 (ANI): Five hundred species of fish change sex in adulthood, often in response to environmental cues, researchers have found.
