A new study in mice indicates that long-term treadmill exercise might fully reverse memory problems and reduce brain damage ...

Seeing and moving are directly linked in the brain. When we stand still, the visual scene barely shifts. When we run, by ...

When an animal encounters a potential threat in its environment, it must focus completely on the danger to protect itself.

In 2023, the team behind the new study created a version of Trim-Away that delivers its antibodies through an injectable ...

Social isolation activates a brain circuit that increases alcohol drinking in male mice, revealing a biological link between ...

Most neuroscience research still runs on mice, even though much of what applies to mice does not hold up in humans. Marmosets have emerged as a bridge between species. However, comparing the brains of ...

Artificial hibernation caused mice to lose more than half of their hippocampal synapses, yet their memories survived, ...

A single dose of psilocybin produced a lasting increase in sociability for at least two weeks in Cntnap2-knockout mice with ...

Researchers have uncovered a possible reason why the Alzheimer’s risk gene APOE4 can disrupt the brain long before memory ...
