A study by Professor Carlos Matute of the EHU reinforces a paradigm shift in neuroscience: Myelin goes from being a ...

It appears that new cells compete to ‘win’ synapse connections away from old cells, which promotes network plasticity. Linda Overstreet-Wadiche, Ph.D. One goal in neurobiology is to understand how the ...

Scientists disclose how mitochondria control tissue rejuvenation and synaptic plasticity in the adult mouse brain. Nerve cells (neurons) are amongst the most complex cell types in our body. They ...

A new study identifies PTCHD1-AS as a key non-coding gene that shapes social and repetitive behaviors in autism without affecting cognition.

Most people can feel the effects of a bad night of sleep pretty quickly. Maybe words don’t come as easily, or everyday tasks ...

The picture shows neurons (magenta) born in the adult mouse hippocampus. Nuclei are stained cyan. The extending dendrites are important sites where mechanisms of plasticity and competition for ...
