Neural stem cells (NSCs) are important for the development and regeneration of the nervous system. After the initial development of the brain, neural stem cells typically enter a dormant state, ...

Led by Professor Wang Hongyan (second from the left) from Duke-NUS’ Neuroscience and Behavioural Disorders Programme, the research team, including Dr Mahekta Rajeshkumar Gujar (extreme left), PhD ...

A research team at KAIST has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation ...

How do worms navigate? A new study maps the whole-brain circuit of C. elegans, revealing how neurons and the chemical ...

Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...

“I just can’t make it tonight. You have fun without me.” Across much of the animal kingdom, when infection strikes, social contact shuts down. A study headed by researchers at The Picower Institute ...

How does the amygdala influence drinking? New research shows sex-specific neural pathways: amygdala reactivity leads to ...

Activation functions play a critical role in AI inference, helping to ferret out nonlinear behaviors in AI models. This makes them an integral part of any neural network, but nonlinear functions can ...
