When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the ...
Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.
Northwestern University researchers aren’t targeting a specific condition. Instead, they're focused on a problem: the buildup ...

Encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain that can be caused by infections or autoimmune reactions. Even when patients survive the acute phase, many are left with long-lasting neurological problems ...
Some parts of our bodies bounce back from injury in fairly short order. The outer protective layer of the eye—called the ...
The representation of individual memories in a recurrent neural network can be efficiently differentiated using chaotic recurrent dynamics.
Flexoelectricity, which can transform mechanical deformation into electrical signals, could provide enough power to fire neurons.
The evolutionary drive to maintain neurons that we see in jellyfish and sea anemones is perhaps one of the reasons why sleep is essential for humans today, Appelbaum said.
Sea anemones and jellyfish don’t have brains, but the way their neurons behave during sleep shows some surprising ...
