To see how mobility loss affects the brain, a neuroscientist wore a pink cast and spent lots of time in an MRI machine. Here are the findings.

Tiny, head-mounted microscopes provide a window into how short-term memory allows canaries to belt out complex, sentence-like songs.

Sighs get their start in one group of neurons, but instructions from various areas of the brain depend on the reason, research with mice finds.

Chemo can cause neuropathy, which includes strange sensations, pain, fatigue, or loss of muscle coordination. New research points to cancer's role.

Artifiical neurons may shed light on how real neurons are so energy efficient while communicating across distances, paving the way for better computers.

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.
