How Neuronal Thresholds Influence When the First Symptoms Appear in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Parkinson’s Disease is a complex neurological disorder commonly described by its dominant motor issues like tremors and stiffness, accounting for the characteristic Parkinsonian look.
The Neuroscience Breakthrough: Connecting Microscopic Molecules to Brain Imaging
Understanding how molecules, genes, proteins, and cellular structures drive communication across the brain's vast network is one of neuroscience's greatest ambitions.
Closer or Farther? Understanding How the Brain Processes Social and Spatial Distances
When we interact with others, most of our social energy is directed toward a small group of individuals. We fell almost physically close to them.
Unlocking the Brain's Timekeepers: Surprising Roles of Clock Genes
Our brains are primed to keep track of time with the natural rhythms of the day. That´s thanks to what scientists call circadian clock.
