How do brain regions communicate? Researchers introduce a new optogenetic method to target long-distance circuits in ...
Understanding how the brain works requires more than studying single regions in isolation. The cerebral cortex depends on long-distance connections that link specialized areas into coordinated ...

The human brain ages less than thought and in layers – at least in the area of the cerebral cortex responsible for the sense of touch. Researchers at DZNE, the University of Magdeburg, and the Hertie ...
Obtaining prefrontal cortex biopsies during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in living patients does not increase the risk of adverse events or cognitive decline compared to standard DBS ...
If you develop Alzheimer's disease, you not only lose your sense of time, but you also lose your sense of place. Could time ...
When animals move through complex visual environments, the brain cannot afford to analyze every detail one by one. Instead, ...
How does the brain clean itself during sleep? A new ultrafast MRI method tracks cerebrospinal fluid flow without contrast agents, revealing how vasomotor waves drive the brain's "nightly wash." ...
A new paper published in Cell Reports, in which researchers work with primates, sheds some light on the question. Researchers ...
