Webs of star-shaped cells called astrocytes connect distant parts of the brain, allowing long-distance exchange of molecules.

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new ...

A new noninvasive neurostimulation technique capable of reaching deep regions of the brain has been used to elucidate the ...

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice showed. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that have ...

Scientists who use imaging to understand the brain's complexity often focus on the strongest signals and ignore the rest. But this strategy, researchers warn, may reveal only the tip of the iceberg. A ...

Is brain imaging overlooking the truth? Research shows that "weak" brain connections predict behavior as well as top signals, ...

A new NYU Langone Health study reveals that astrocytes, long considered support cells, create organized brain-wide communication networks in mice. These astrocytic pathways connect specific brain ...

Researchers mapped brain-wide astrocyte networks that link distant regions, proving these "support cells" have their own long ...
