Autistic adults show reduced availability of a key glutamate receptor, mGlu5, across widespread brain regions.
A new study comparing stroke survivors with healthy adults reveals that post-stroke language disorders stem not from slower ...
Researchers have engineered a next-generation glutamate sensor, iGluSnFR4, capable of detecting the faintest incoming ...
New research following children for more than a decade links high screen exposure before age two to accelerated brain maturation, slower decision-making, and increased anxiety by adolescence.
Chronic circadian disruption — such as night-shift work, irregular schedules, or frequent jet lag — accelerates the ...
A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...
Researchers showed that a severe drop in NAD+—a core energy molecule—drives Alzheimer’s pathology in both human brains and mouse models.
High levels of the periodontal bacterium Fusobacterium nucleatum may be associated with more severe disability in people with multiple sclerosis.
When people facing uncertainty about an important identity goal are nudged to question the validity of their own doubts, their commitment to that goal actually increases.
A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.
New research reveals that numbers in our visual field can subtly distort how we judge spatial positions, showing that perception is shaped by both numerical magnitude and object-based processing.
People instinctively mimic others’ facial expressions, but new research shows we do this far more with joyful faces than with sadness or anger—and that the intensity of mimicry predicts how much we ...
