Recordings of brain activity in budgerigars reveal sets of brain cells that represent different sounds like keys on a ...

A new study explains how a parakeet's brain helps it to mimic human words. By recording for the first time the brain activity ...

Herpesvirus infection may contribute to Alzheimer’s disease through transposable element activation and neuroinflammation.

Early forebrain patterning entails the correct regional designation of the neuroepithelium, and appropriate specification, generation, and distribution of neural cells during brain development.

The basal forebrain cholinergic system projects broadly throughout the cortex and constitutes a critical source of neuromodulation for arousal and attention. Traditionally, this system was thought to ...

Contrary to the common belief that cognitive ERPs are generated by local activity within the cerebral cortex, here we show that an attention-related ERP in the frontal cortex is correlated with, and ...
