Scientists have proposed a variety of features that influence one’s ability to remember things and solve problems.

Precisely timed electrical stimulation and intensive rehabilitation restore some capacity to walk among three men more than four years after their debilitating injuries.

Scientists map the fruit fly brain, giving an in-depth look at its neurons.

This is the first time the precise brain cells and their connections controlling a complex behavior have been worked out. 

Optogenetic stimulation of the perirhinal cortex can cause macaques to process never-before seen-objects as familiar and known objects as brand new.

Using machine learning, researchers have created extensive maps of the neuronal circuits associated with social and locomotion behaviors in the fruit fly. 

The results suggest that breathing is orchestrated by three—rather than two—excitatory circuits in the medulla.

This third excitatory network helps to regulate postinspiration.

The UCLA neurobiologist uses computational modeling, in vitro electrophysiology, and human psychophysics experiments to explore how neurons and the brain as a whole perceive and respond to time.
