Nearly half of all patients with brain metastasis experience cognitive impairment. Until now, it was thought that this was due to the physical presence of the tumor pressing on neural tissue. But this ...

A new study reveals that the twin enzymes MNK1 and MNK2 play distinct roles in the brain, with one governing memory and the other social behavior.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — A Texas A&M University researcher received a multi-million-dollar grant to advance brain cell ...

WASHINGTON – A new finding from researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center shows that the learning process of associating cues with rewards can be altered by increased or decreased activity ...

Mouse study provides insights into communication between neurons during decision-making. Scientists have gained new insights into how neurons in the brain communicate during a decision, and how the ...

The brain's ability to do everything from forming memories to coordinating movement relies on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time. But directly measuring this protein production, ...

A study using Ribo-STAMP technology reveals that protein production in brain cells varies significantly between different types of neurons, offering new insights into autism and memory.

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication is disrupted, the brain must rapidly rebalance its internal signaling to ...

A new study suggests that cognitive loss in patients with brain metastases may be due to the interference that cancer produces in neuronal circuits. When cancer spreads in the brain, it changes the ...
