Scientists found that mouse memory circuits start with many connections and then become more selective over time.

Brain tissue is an optical mess. Water, lipids, and tangled cellular membranes all bend light in different directions. If ...

German scientists have successfully cryopreserved adult mouse hippocampal tissue, cooling it to -196°C and later rewarming it ...

New findings reveal that certain areas of the brain influence how neurons transmit signals and control their range.

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice showed. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that have ...
