The scientists have discovered that the adolescent brain does more than prune old connections. During the teen years, it actively builds dense new clusters of synapses in specific parts of neurons.
Noida (Uttar Pradesh) [India], December 24: Shivik Labs, an emerging leader in foundational AI research, announced the release of its latest research paper introducing TRIDENT (Thought-based Reasoning and Improvement through Deep Exploration of Neuronal Trees), a paradigm-shifting framework
New Delhi [India], October 28: In every 40 seconds someone in the world suffers from a stroke and in every four minutes someone dies from it. In India, alone annual incidence is now estimated at over 1.8 million news cases, making stroke a leading cause of death and top reason of disability
Researchers from Sweden have discovered that the human brain continues to grow new cells in the memory region--called the hippocampus--even into old age.
A statement from the club said, "Gloucestershire Cricket is deeply saddened to announce the passing of our Club President, David 'Syd' Lawrence MBE, at the age of 61. In his final year, Syd faced Motor Neurone Disease with the same courage and determination that defined his cricketing life.
Researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord injuries or diseases such as ALS.
A study has demonstrated how neurons in the human brain generate memories and establish narratives. Contrary to previous beliefs, individual neurons represent the concepts we learn, regardless of the context in which we encounter them.
Scientists have found specialized neurons in the brains of mice that order the animals to stop eating. Though many feeding circuits in the brain are known to play a role in monitoring food intake, scientists also believe that the neurons in those circuits do not make the final decision to ce
A study reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta -- a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caus
Researchers have discovered a new type of neuron that plays a fundamental role in recognition memory. It means how the brain registers the difference between new and familiar objects and forms long-term memories. These are named Ovoid Cells. They are found in the hippocampus of mice, humans
