Using an aging clock, researchers from the University of Cologne have used the Caenorhabditis elegans model organism to demonstrate that nerve cells age differently. They identified both the causes of ...

Immunotherapy that blocks microglial Fcγ receptors prevents dopaminergic neuron loss in Parkinson’s disease, revealing a potential new strategy.

By analyzing tissue from patients with Parkinson's disease, and animal and cellular models of the disease, a research team ...

Microglia are the brain's immune cells that clean out debris, such as damaged proteins and old cell parts, to keep the organ ...

A recent large study conducted in Sweden has found that long-term exposure to elevated levels of air pollution may increase ...

LLM quietly powers faster, cheaper AI inference across major platforms — and now its creators have launched an $800 million company to commercialize it.

Ageing slows neuronal protein degradation in mice, leading to widespread accumulation and aggregation of long-lived proteins, particularly at synapses. As neuronal clearance declines, microglia ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

Dr. Witt is the author of “The Radical Fund: How a Band of Visionaries and a Million Dollars Upended America.” In a year when the United States seemed more split than ever, Americans united in one way ...

Neuronal synchronization refers to the temporal coordination of activity across populations of neurons, a process that underlies coherent information processing, supports the encoding of diverse ...

For decades, scientists have tried to build electronics that behave like the brain. The idea is called neuromorphic computing in which chips are designed to copy the way our brain’s neurons fire and ...
