A research team has created 20 new recombinant rabies viral vectors for neural circuit mapping that offer a range of significant advantages over existing tools, including the ability to detect ...

In a major milestone for neuroscience, researchers have mapped the entire wiring of a fruit fly’s brain—marking the first time we’ve charted every neuron and its connections in an adult animal. This ...

An international group of neuroscientists joined forces to produce a landmark neural map, which revealed that decision-making lights up the entire brain.

The left panel depicts direct fear, in which a mouse experiences an immediate threat such as a predator or footshocks, leading to robust defensive reactions and activation of survival circuits. The ...

Researchers have mapped the long-range synaptic connections involved in vocal learning in zebra finches, uncovering new details about how the brain organises learned vocalisations such as birdsong.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a promising therapy for treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). A first-of-its-kind collaborative study led by researchers at Texas Children's Hospital ...
