Singapore has one of the highest life expectancies in the world, yet many individuals spend almost a decade in poor health ...

Synaptic plasticity—the brain's ability to modify the connections between neurons to support learning—is one of the neural functions profoundly altered in Huntington's disease, with a direct impact on ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Singapore has one of the highest life expectancies in the world, yet many individuals spend almost a decade in poor health toward the end of life. Scientists from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, ...

Rapid development of artificial intelligence requires the implementation of hardware systems with bioinspired parallel ...

How do we learn something new? How do tasks at a new job, lyrics to the latest hit song, or directions to a friend’s house become encoded in our brains? The broad answer is that our brains undergo ...

Using high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM), the Kanazawa University team led by Mikihiro Shibata filmed the dynamic movements of CaMKII at the single-molecule level. The images revealed that a ...

Optogenetic climbing fiber activation regulates experience-dependent plasticity in the primary somatosensory cortex of mice, suggesting a role of the olivo-cerebellum in instructive signaling across ...

Neuroplasticity, or brain plasticity, can be defined as the ability of the nervous system to alter its activity in response to a stimulus by reorganizing its structure, function, and neuronal ...
