Researchers have identified a previously overlooked neural pathway that helps control human hand and arm movements. The ...

The neural mechanisms of many symptoms associated with migraine have yet to be elucidated. New research suggests that a non-image-forming retinal pathway and signals from the dura mater contribute to ...

Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have identified a previously uncharacterized neural circuit that directly links emotional processing to arousal. In the pathway, GABAergic neurons in the bed ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have discovered that the constant gnawing of rodents isn't just a reflex or a ...

Scientists discovered a smell receptor in mosquitoes that detects the plant compound borneol and triggers an immediate ...

Researchers discover a neural circuit that rewards gnawing behavior with dopamine, explaining repetitive oral habits in animals and humans.

Researchers at the Sainsbury Wellcome Center (SWC) at University College London have uncovered a neural mechanism in the brains of mice that enables the animals to overcome instinctive fears. The ...

A newly identified brain pathway in mice could explain why placebos, or interventions designed to have no therapeutic effect, still relieve pain. Developing drugs that target this pathway may lead to ...

Concurrent decoding of acoustic detail and linguistic structure enables natural, intelligible speech synthesis from limited human cortical recordings, resolving a fundamental constraint in neural ...
