Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...

New research shows AI language models mirror how the human brain builds meaning over time while listening to natural speech.

Ageing slows neuronal protein degradation in mice, leading to widespread accumulation and aggregation of long-lived proteins, particularly at synapses. As neuronal clearance declines, microglia ...

After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, forms an abnormal connection with an enzyme called ClpP. This enzyme normally ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

For a long time, the study of the brain has largely focused on neuronal cells. However, neurons develop and interact closely together in space and time with ...

Scientists identify a "master regulator" that may reset Brain Aging by controlling tau and gene expression in neurons.

Scientists preparing to simulate human brain on a supercomputer could transform neuroscience, AI, and medicine. Discover how ...

In a nutshell, string theory is a sprawling realm of theoretical physics that assumes that tiny vibrating strings are the ...

Does string theory—the controversial “theory of everything” from physics—tell us anything about consciousness and the human ...

Most cell surface proteins did not. But 16 did, including two found in the human dopamine neurons of the substantia nigra, a ...
