For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical ...
Sometimes dubbed the 'pleasure chemical', dopamine is often wildly misunderstood. Nikolay Kukushkin delves into what the much ...
A team of researchers has created the first 'multiome' atlas of brain cell development in the human cerebral cortex across six broad developmental time points from fetal development into adulthood, ...

Cerebral cortex synapses transmit signals more reliably than those in rear brain regions
Researchers at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute have discovered that in the cerebral cortex, synaptic signal transmission between brain cells functions very reliably even at low ...
Music has been central to human cultures for tens of thousands of years, but how our brains perceive it has long been shrouded in mystery. Now, researchers at UC San Francisco have developed a precise ...
To study how a key chemical neuromodulator affects signaling in the brain's cortex, Garrett Neske, PhD, has received a three-year, $300,000 grant from the Whitehall Foundation, a nonprofit ...
A new study showcases how brain waves known as alpha oscillations help us distinguish between ourselves and the outside world ...
The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen-like perception, thinking, memory storage ...
