Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal ...

It’s not just in your legs. Scientists have discovered a "fitness switch" in the brain that must be flipped after a workout for your body to actually build endurance.

Memories are thought to be stored in sparse groups of neurons called engrams. These are the cells that switch on during learning and can later switch on again during recall. In physiological aging and ...

Research findings are available online in the journal Nature Metabolism. The original story “ Sweating may naturally suppress ...

The work reveals that the brain — in mice and, presumably, in humans — is actively involved in the development of endurance, the ability to get better at a physical activity with repeated practice, ...

When you finish a run, your muscles may feel like they did all the work. But researchers at The Jackson Laboratory (JAX) and the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) have discovered that what happens in ...

Researchers have developed a new type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. Controlling the concentration of different ions can ...

Top) 1. Selective expression of nano-magnetoreceptors only in desired target neurons in a mouse model with applied Cre-loxP genetic engineering technology. 2. When rotational magnetic field ...

New research demonstrates that electroacupuncture can significantly alleviate pain-induced anxiety- and depression-like behaviors by modulating specific excitatory neurons in the brain. Using a mouse ...

Researchers at Linköping University have developed a new type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. Researchers at Linköping ...
