Researchers discover that the RNA surveillance system NMD and the protein UPF2 are essential for guiding neuronal migration and forming the brain's layered cortex.

A study of 410,000 adults finds current smokers have a lower Parkinson’s risk, while quitters have a higher Parkinson's risk but a much lower risk of death.

Neuroscientists identify a CRF-neuron "switch" in the brain's BNST region that, when activated, allows for significantly faster unlearning of fear responses.

Researchers find that human attention shifts 7–10 times per second due to innate brain rhythms, making us naturally susceptible to distractions.

Neuroscientists discover that Rett syndrome mutations cause a leaky brain via overexpressed miRNA-126-3p, pointing to a new therapeutic target for vascular repair.

Bilingual individuals are more creative in their native language due to more vivid mental imagery and deeper sensory connections.

Researchers discover that COVID-19 uniquely causes brain inflammation and disrupts serotonin/dopamine pathways, explaining "brain fog" in Long COVID.

Researchers debut "Humanity’s Last Exam," a benchmark of 2,500 expert-level questions that current AI models are failing.

While neurogenesis—the growth of new brain cells—typically slows with age, superagers produce new neurons in the hippocampus at twice the rate of healthy older adults. In contrast, individuals with ...

Researchers use compressed AI models to discover "dot-detecting" neurons in the macaque visual cortex, offering a new path for Alzheimer’s therapy.

Researchers discover a gut-brain-heart axis where the bacterial metabolite IAA regulates hypocretin neurons to control heart stiffness and blood pressure.
