Researchers uncovered how shifting levels of a brain protein called KCC2 can reshape the way cues become linked with rewards, ...

A new study shows that mRNAs in neurons cluster largely because abundant messages randomly overlap, not because they travel ...

Scientists found that messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules that carry genetic instructions to the far reaches of neurons in the brain tend to cluster together mostly because they are abundant, not because ...

Changing levels of the brain protein KCC2 can alter how reward associations form, reshaping the learning process that links ...

Princeton scientists found that the brain uses reusable “cognitive blocks” to create new behaviors quickly.

Scientists mapped brain activity across the day and found the same neurons create completely different networks depending on ...

A new finding from researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center shows that the learning process of associating cues with rewards can be altered by increased or decreased activity of a specific ...

The cerebellum (which is Latin for ‘little brain’) is the area of the brain in charge of fine motor coordination and balance, and it keeps our movements smooth and stable by predicting what our next ...

A significant, long-term reduction in calorie consumption resulted in a slowing of aging in the brain, according to a study ...

In an effort to teach self-management to students identified as impulsive, Meichenbaum found that he could help students ...
