This important study shows that the activity of hypothalamic hypocretin/orexin neurons (HONs) correlates with body movement over multiple behaviors. Sophisticated techniques and analyses showcase this ...

The locus coeruleus is emerging as a major new area of research interest, with many important functions such as regulating ...

The technology trends of 2025 paint a picture of a world where the lines between human and machine intelligence are ...

Researchers at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre (SWC) at UCL have unveiled the precise brain mechanisms that enable animals to ...

Researcher suggest findings could help understand what happens in the brain when fear response regulation is impaired.

Researchers have uncovered a neural mechanism in the brains of mice that enables them to override instinctive fear responses; dysfunction in this mechanism may contribute to inappropriate or excessive ...

Scientists have uncovered a fascinating way the brain learns to override instinctive fears, shedding light on how we adapt to ...

Excitatory projection neurons of the neocortex are thought to play important roles in perceptual and cognitive functions of the brain by directly connecting diverse cortical and subcortical areas.

Here, to dissect the distinctions between the dorsal (dCA1) and ventral CA1 (vCA1) in anatomical connections, we systematically analyzed the direct inputs to dCA1 and vCA1 projection neurons (PNs) ...

Serotonin is primarily synthesized by neurons in the dorsal Raphe nucleus (DRN) in the midbrain. Serotonin neurons in the DRN project to numerous brain regions, including the arcuate of the ...

Carnegie Mellon University neuroscientists have discovered connections between the globus pallidus and a rarely explored area of the brain.
