Tole combines ultrasound and AI to improve motor neuron disease diagnosis, reducing reliance on invasive procedures.

A new study reveals experimental drug XL20 crosses the blood-brain barrier to stop toxic TDP-43 clumping in ALS.

Researchers have produced the first complete wiring diagram of an adult fruit fly brain, tracing roughly 139,255 neurons and ...

Single neurons in mouse sensorimotor cortex are organized by their activity features into distinct subpopulations with area-spanning footprints whose boundaries align closely with anatomical and ...

University of Queensland researchers have developed a drug that activates a hard-to-target immune receptor—a breakthrough ...

A team led by Jason Shepherd at the University of Utah has identified the protein responsible for loading toxic tau into tiny ...

Researchers identified VIP inhibitory neurons in Huntington’s disease and used optogenetics to restore motor neuron activity in mice.

The subthalamic nucleus contains subpopulations with different contributions to deliberative decision-making based on noisy evidence and reward-driven preferences.

Digging deep into the molecular mechanisms behind ALS, researchers at the Les Turner ALS Center at Northwestern Medicine have ...

Living cells constantly exchange ions (i.e., charged particles) via the thin barrier that surrounds their interior, known as ...

Neurons tucked away in an ancient part of the brain control the ability to pay attention by suppressing distractions and directing focus. The discovery of these neurons in mice by Johns Hopkins ...

Neurons are the specialized cells that allow our bodies to transmit impulses, like factories that process inputs. They send signals that help us catch a ball, recognize a favorite song or pull our ...
