Scientists distinguish brain regions based on what they do, but now have a new way to overlay information about how they are built

Study also finds specific frequency bands associated with encoding, or inhibiting encoding, of sensory information across the cortex

MIT, MGH join forces to test whether ‘GENUS’ stimulation of 40Hz rhythms can reduce disease pathology before onset of symptoms

Theoretical framework shows that many properties of neural connections help biological circuits produce consistent computations

A new statistical model may help scientists understand how animals make inferences about whether their surroundings are novel or haven’t changed enough to be a new context

Unique survey of gene expression by cell type in humans and mice reveals several deficits affecting the most vulnerable neurons

Diversity in how cells talk to the muscle they innervate reveal distinct propensities for change, or “plasticity”

Among study’s many surprises may be a new way to address Fragile X syndrome – by finding a “Protein X”
