They detected clear chemical signatures in these remains, which indicated that lead exposure for these species dated back to ...

This revised manuscript presents an important characterization of mouse auditory cortex receptive field organization, utilizing two-photon imaging of specific subpopulations. They demonstrate a ...

In June 2020, Brody Huber arrived home from a camping trip early, complaining of a headache and insisting he needed a night ...

Yale scientists traced gamma brain waves to thalamus-cortex interactions. The discovery could reveal how brain rhythms shape perception and disease. For more than a century, scientists have observed ...

Doctors and researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC have developed a new treatment for epilepsy patients who don't respond to medication and aren't candidates for surgery. Their approach, ...

Scientists found that ancient lead exposure shaped early human evolution. The toxin may have played a surprising role in the development of modern cognition and language. An international team of ...

This week, researchers reported the discovery of four Late Bronze Age stone megastructures likely used for trapping herds of ...

Researchers have pinpointed how synchronized, coordinated gamma activity emerges in the brain, showing the oscillations arise due to an interaction between the thalamus and the cortex.

The study, published in Biological Psychiatry: Global Open Science, found the effect occurs in the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus, a region that regulates stress and emotion. “What makes ...
