Learning is something everyone does daily—mastering new skills at work, remembering song lyrics, or following directions to new places. But behind these everyday tasks lies a complex biological ...

How do we learn new things? Neurobiologists using cutting-edge visualization techniques have revealed how changes across our synapses and neurons unfold. The findings depict how information is ...

Cognitive tasks, such as learning and memory, require rapid changes to proteins at synapses, such as protein synthesis, degradation, and trafficking. How protein post-translational modifications ...

In AD, synaptic plasticity, the brain's ability to regulate the strength of synaptic connections between neurons, is significantly disrupted. This worsens over time, reducing cognitive and memory ...

Your brain doesn t just send messages through one universal route it uses separate pathways for spontaneous activity and signals linked to learning. These findings overturn a major neuroscience ...

Unlock a sharper mind with a simple eating strategy that goes beyond weight loss. Emerging science reveals how strategically ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections, and as a result, in signal ...

Neurodevelopment involves the brain's formation of systems responsible for learning, memory, social skills, and overall function. Critical neurodevelopmental processes such as neurogenesis, synaptic ...

Shedding light on how the brain fine-tunes its wiring during learning, a new study finds that different dendritic segments of a single neuron follow distinct rules. The findings challenge the idea ...

In December of 1993, former World Boxing Champion John Famechon (who had sustained severe incapacitating brain injuries in August 1991) began a new, complex multi-movement therapy and rehabilitation ...
