Scientists show in mice how time-restricted eating influences gene expression across more than 22 regions of the body and brain. The findings have implications for a wide range of health conditions where time-restricted eating has shown potential benef…

A new study suggests that voice and face recognition are linked even more intimately than previously thought.

‘Single-cell profiling’ is helping neuroscientists see how disease affects major brain cell types and identify common, potentially targetable pathways.

Comparing models of working memory with real-world data, researchers found that information resides not in persistent neural activity, but in the pattern of their connections.

New insights into the opposing actions of serotonin-producing nerve fibers in mice could lead to drugs for treating addictions and major depression.

A team of researchers has mapped the parts of the brain that support our ability to solve problems without prior experience — otherwise known as fluid intelligence.

A remote fear memory is a memory of traumatic events that occurred in the distant past — a few months to decades ago. A mouse study has now spelled out the fundamental mechanisms by which the brain consolidates remote fear memories. The study demonstr…

Researchers have revealed a brain mechanism that mice use to instinctively escape to shelter when faced with a threat. This is the first time that neuroscientists have been able to find such a clear link between spatial goals and actions.

Antidepressant use during pregnancy may combine with inflammation to heighten the risk of lifelong neurodevelopmental changes in babies’ brains, new research suggests.
