A new discovery that sheds light on how neurons control whether mice turn right or left while walking could prove useful for people with motor disorders.

Researchers have used deep brain stimulation with light on rats to alleviate symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Sweet foods that are cooler don't taste as good to us, but why that is has been a mystery. New research may have the answer.

New research adds to our understanding of how our brains form and retain memories. Part of the process involves actin "avalanches," the researchers say.

New findings may solve a mystery about how brains manage to process information so accurately, even though neurons act with a degree of randomness.

The link between nerves and cancer may be a promising target for new therapies, researchers report.

A new technique called genetically targeted chemical assembly reprograms cells to build artificial structures to carry out functions inside the body.

A new discovery about brain formation could one day one day allow bioengineers to coax stem cells to grow into replacement body parts.

Researchers have mapped the brain mechanisms that drive movement in grooming fruit flies. That could help fight Parkinson's disease and OCD.

New research on a solid-state material is a step toward developing circuitry that functions like the human brain, neuromorphic computing.
