For more than a century, the story of the brain has been told as a tale of neurons, with every thought and memory traced to their electrical chatter. That narrative is now being rewritten as evidence ...

New experiments reveal how astrocytes tune neuronal activity to modulate our mental and emotional states. The results suggest ...

The first node sits in the peripheral nervous system. Sensory neurons in the vagus nerve detect damage in the heart and send signals upward. The researchers focused on a subset of vagal sensory ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron disease and damaged in spinal injuries.

Think your cerebellum only coordinates fluid movements? New 2026 research reveals how your "little brain" also creates the ...

While diet changes have long been credited for long-term health benefits, it's not often for brain health. A new UNC study ...

The human brain contains billions of connected neurons that collectively support different mental functions, including the ...

A new study from Sweden found long-term exposure to air pollution is linked to an increased risk of ALS and worse outcomes ...

A research team has developed a way to produce a subset of highly specialised brain neurons that centrally degenerate in motor neuron disease and are damaged in spinal cord injury, laying foundations ...

Air pollution was associated with risk for developing motor neuron disease such as ALS and likely contributes to an ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron ...

Long-term air pollution exposure is linked to higher risk, faster progression, and increased mortality in motor neuron ...
