| A new theory for what's happening in the brain when something looks familiar Posted: 18 May 2021 05:54 PM PDT Neuroscientists present a new theory for what's happening in the brain when something looks familiar. The work brings the field one step closer to understanding how memory functions. Long-term, it could have implications for treating diseases like Alzheimer's. |
| Synaptic transmission: Not a one-way street Posted: 18 May 2021 08:44 AM PDT When neuroscientists analyzed the exact properties of nerve connections in the brain, they made a startling observation: At a key connection, or synapse, messages are sent against the usual stream of information. The study reports that the signal glutamate likely plays a role in this unusual transmission. |
| Scientists map gene changes underlying brain and cognitive decline in aging Posted: 18 May 2021 08:41 AM PDT Alzheimer's disease shares some key similarities with healthy aging, according to a new mathematical model. |
| Linguistic and biological diversity linked Posted: 17 May 2021 04:47 PM PDT Cultural diversity -- indicated by linguistic diversity -- and biodiversity are linked, and their connection may be another way to preserve both natural environments and Indigenous populations in Africa and perhaps worldwide, according to an international team of researchers. |
