Scientists reconstruct video from retina signals.
Austrian researchers have successfully reconstructed a video from retina signals of rats, using signals from 100 neurons to produce remarkably accurate results. The Institute of
Human Brain Neurons Misbehave
The human brain has fewer ion channels than expected, which may be a strategy to save energy for other neural processes. Researchers from the Massachusetts
Brain Cells Erase Memories
A new study has found that a group of neurons called MCH cells actively erase unimportant memories during deep sleep, preventing them from being stored
Good oral hygiene reduces Alzheimer’s risk.
A new study published in the journal Science Advances has found that bacteria responsible for causing gum disease, known as Porphyromonas gingivalis, can also contribute
Flu’s Long-Term Impact on Brain

New neurons discovered in human brain
In a groundbreaking discovery, American scientists have found previously unknown neurons in the human brain’s cortex. The function of these neurons is still unclear, but
Women have better sense of smell.
Women have long been known to have a better sense of smell than men, despite having a similar number of olfactory receptors and a smaller
One Neuron for Every Face
The ability to recognize faces is different from simply seeing them with our eyes. While we use visual perception for information input, familiar faces are
New type of human brain cells discovered
