Specifically, the team found changes in the histone variant H2A.Z, which has been previously linked to long-term memory. Acetate also increased the expression of genes linked to learning in the female ...

Millions of myelin-producing cells have been mapped in the mouse brain, advancing our understanding of nervous system ...

A new study shows exercise releases a liver enzyme that repairs aging brain blood vessels and restores memory in mice.

In a powerful fusion of AI and neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and at the Allen Institute have created one of the most detailed maps of the mouse brain ...

Why does the brain split visual spatial perception between its hemispheres? A new review by neuroscientists examines the advantages and trade-offs, and how the brain ultimately makes vision feel ...

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...

Male and female brains begin developing differently in the womb. Here's how genetics, hormones, and prenatal biology shape brain structure, behaviour, and mental health outcomes before birth.

We often think of memory as stable—a mental archive that stores experiences in neat, retrievable files. But what if those files quietly shift positions, even when the original experience hasn’t ...
